Who has experience with running just SSD Servers nothing else, what where the speeds like and did you have any issues with reliability? Did the drives work ok? How often did you need to replace them? What was your data usage like?

Hello,

We host ssd servers on our cloud, since it is raid5 there is near no chance to have a hardware issue.
I mean a disk can break but we just have to change it without loosing data.
It is hard to talk about speed and replacement because it depends on too many factors like the other parts in the server, the load average and how many read/writes per day/month customers do.

If your budget allows it take a server with SSD and raid or at least an external backup system for your peace of mind.
