Subject: Re: SSDs

I have also found that in deference to their claims some of the SSDs are SLOWER than regular enterprise drives.
I believe this new technology leaves a lot to be desired.

I have a question about SSDs.  I've read that they like the USB thumb drives can be written to a certain number of times before they fail.  What is the expected lifetime of an SSD?  They're terribly expensive if they're only going to last 2 or 3 years.
