We haven't decided if we're going that route yet, but if we do, we will probably use do RAID SSD for added reliability. We also have all our database servers in failover clusters, so we get added reliability that way too. But, we have some runway left with more conventional technologies, so we don't need to decide for a while. Ultimately, however, as reliability goes up and cost comes down, it's hard to imagine the SSD isn't going to be a big part of our lives at some point. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
