Does anyone use solid state drives for postgres?
Has there been any benchmark that states whether mechanical disk drives out perform solid state drives? Is there any benefit, they are quite expensive. Chris Barnes

I use a single SSD on one of our servers and it appears to be much more responsive than a single 15K SAS drive - Thats as scientific as my testing gets! The database I use is mostly reads.

Careful which SSD you choose because there is a wide variation in performance.
