My take on using an SSD (or any system drive) is to back the system up and have a spare drive in the closet that I can put into duty if the system drive fails. This will give enough time to RMA or replace the problem system drive. It’s going to happen sooner or later so best to be prepared for it if the application is critical.

Easier said than done… when talking about an SSD. They’re still a bit on the pricey side. But, that’s part of the reason I won’t be putting this drive into production until it proves itself out for a few months. I’ll be toying with VMs on my server, while the mechanical HD can quickly be hooked back up to have the server back in production in a matter of minutes.
