Well, this certainly applies if consider SSDs as replacements for big,
100s of GB-sized, HDDs".
It you treat them as "system disks" (hosting the OS) in addition to
("big") "data disks" (hosting mostly static data), things look
different. A 64GB or a 128GB SSD usually is way more than sufficent this
purpose.
I would assume these to be affordable to most people around here.
This has been a very effective approach for us lately. We've built
client systems with relatively small SSDs with centralized storage (this
usually just means mounting /home over NFS4 or AFS) and its worked very
well. In a single system this could work just as well by pushing things
like /home (and /var depending on what you're up to) to the huge
spinning disks and installing everything else to a tiny SSD.
