That would be better than almost any HDD on the planet because
the HDD tradeoffs result in much worse performance.
Indeed. I've set up a couple small systems (one a desktop workstation,
and the other a home fileserver) with root pool plus the l2arc and slog
for a data pool on an 80G X25-M and have been very happy with the result.
The recipe I'm using is to slice the ssd, with the rpool in s0 with
roughly half the space, 1GB in s3 for slog, and the rest of the space as
L2ARC in s4. That may actually be overly generous for the root pool,
but I run with copies=2 on rpool/ROOT and I tend to keep a bunch of BE's
around.
