SSDs are great, until you need more space. I'd rather have an 8TB xlog
partition of spinners when setting up replication and xlog archiving
than a 500GB xlog partition. 8TB sounds like a lot until you need to
hold on to a week's worth of xlog files on a busy server.
Good point. I'll talk to our guy who does all the barman stuff about this.
