I wonder: am I the first here to build a system with all SDD drives? Or has any other subscriber to this list done that?
Hah, Hah, nope.... Been running one like that for several months now. Half done with switching another over to only SDD. Will finish as soon as I find the time.
We should compare notes, then. Did you install your system on one big SSD? Or did you install on one smaller system SSD for the "system" and a larger SSD for user data, as I am trying to do? And has your system improved in performance?
There was a online sale and the price per bit was attractive so I'm only using 525GB drives. Yes, to make things easier for me /home is on its own drive. For added space and for things that I'm not concerned about r/w performance (pictures, mp3, etc.) I NFS mount directories in the user's space from a 3TB NAS.
Yes, performance has improved. I really didn't do a comprehensive analysis. But for some I/O intensive things that I do I found things completing about 40%~50% faster.
