Probably with the very expensive SSDs suited for this ...

That´s because I do not store data on a single disk, without
redundancy, and the SSDs I have are not suitable for hardware RAID.

That's a biggie: are these SSDs consumer grade, or enterprise grade? It
They are not specifically enterprise rated and especially not for use with
hardware RAID.
was common knowledge 8-9 years ago that you *never* want consumer grade in
anything that mattered, other than maybe a home PC - they wear out much
sooner.
Similar SSDs are in use in a server for about 2 years now as cache for ZFS,
and there haven´t been any issues with them.
But then, you can't really use consumer grade h/ds in a server. We like
the NAS-rated ones, like WD Red, which are about 1.33% the price of
consumer grade, and solid... and a lot less than the enterprise-grade,
which are about 3x consumer grade.
Those are pretty worthwhile, though not the fastest. Out of 14, one has
failed over the last 3 years or so, and it was still under warranty.
They do serve their purpose.
