OT: SSD or not to SSD, that is the question

[Richard Shaw]

I have two drives in my desktop computer, a 500GB for / and /var which is
failing, and a 1TB drive for /home and swap.

Cost is definitely an issue so I have narrowed my options down to a 1TB
drive for about $53 or a 256MB SSD for about $86.

Obviously the SSD is about half the size of my current failing drive. I
think I can squeeze things down a bit to make it fit and I REALLY want to
get an SSD.

With current reliability of MLC SSD's is it a good idea to put /var on an
SSD? The major users there would be BackupPC and all the chroots/cache for
mock packaging builds.

Thanks,
Richard
