I've had really good luck with SSDs. The one I killed was holding
virtual machines, so likely very high i/o. But, it did take awhile.
SSDs I have used for storage have been good to me. Like you say, it depends on the use case.
SSDs are great for OS drives but any use scenario with heavy I/O operations will eventually hit the write/rewrite limit on SSD cells. In my work environment OS drives are SSDs and storage drives are spinning drives.

Doesn't an OS write to its drive quite a lot? I thought modern OSes typically write quite a bit in log files, swap files (if necessary),
etc.. I would have thought an OS drive would get more I/O usage than a drive used for storage.
