For the slog, you should look for a SLC technology SSD which saves unwritten
data on power failure.  In Intel-speak, this is called "Enhanced Power Loss
Data Protection".  I am not running across any Intel SSDs which claim to
match these requirements.

Extreme write IOPS claims in consumer SSDs are normally based on large write
caches which can lose even more data if there is a power failure.
