In the context of a low-volume file server, for a few users, is the
low-end Intel SSD sufficient?

I think it is a great idea, assuming the SSD has good write
performance.
This one claims up to 230MB/s read and 180MB/s write and it's only
$196.

Compared to this one (250MB/s read and 170MB/s write) which is $699.

The less expensive SSD is an MLC device. The Intel SSD is an SLC
device.
That right there accounts for the cost difference. The SLC device
(Intel
X25-E) will last quite a bit longer than the MLC device.
