They all have wear leveling. Some systems have de-duplication too if you
really want to save space.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] New server SSD vs HDD
The only issue with SSDs is the write endurance, and most of them now have a
certain percentage of spare cells to stave that off for a while. They generally
won't go toes up all at once, but will lose cells, or blocks of cells at some
point. You will get more endurance if you oversize them to minimize cell
re-use. If you think you need 1TB, get 2TB, and it will cut cell re-use by 50%.
Way, way faster.

Setting up a new server and trying to decide if I want to go SSD vs
HDD. This is a dell R620 and uses 2.5" drives. Last one I setup I
just used 1TB WD RED 2.5" drives. Now that the price of SDD has
dropped, I was thinking about using SSD over the HDD. Most likely
going to be a Ubuntu system with linux SW raid 10.
Any reason not to go with the SSD?
