Ssd

As far as I can tell, SSD is only for system drive from most ssd hosting servers. Storage drives are still SAS or raid configuration.
 
Yes because of SSD is fast and many of software scan whole disk so quickly then normal HDD.

Customers are also looking for SSD and you can see many thread like "I need ssd hosting/vps/server"

Less risk of Array failure and even If failed then it will take less time to rebuild disk array.
 
Many also use SSD Cache instead of full SSD. In shared hosting especially if you use Cloudlinux, you will not feel much difference using SSD or not especially since your IO is limited by CL.
 
SSDs are only disk drives that we provide on our servers. This helps to boost your hosting speed and perform much better compared to traditional SATA drives.
 
We use sata disks, sas disks and ssd.
Our cloud platform is equiped with ssd to improve vm creation and data read/writes.
 
Yew we provide SSD and almost every desent web host these days does because of its performance in terms of speed. However we still have Sata on some of the servers again because of their price being lower
 
Yes We do provide SSD Dedicated Servers. SSD offer I/O rates and access times that are impossible to achieve with a disk-based system. SSDs are more reliable and always has longer lifespan than traditional HDD
 
We used SSD for all MySQL/MariaDB databases, and for our CloudLinux OptimumCache storage.

We use SAS disks for /home/storage
 
We offer 100% SSD and have been for nearly a year now. I think HDD still has its place in web Hosting most £1 host offer it and then offer ssd at a higher cost.

A good practice especially for shared hosting is to integrate both. Use SSD for your Databases while primary storage is left on HDD
 
Yes, the price of SSD's are becoming much more affordable now. So it makes sense to use them. I/O has been the bottleneck for decades, but now that's improving.

Just my two cents.
 
We use mostly SSD Cache but we don't really notice too much difference from our Pure SSD Nodes with good optimization and configuration.
 
We currently use a combination of HDD's and SSD (for caching)
We are currently setting up SSD only Servers as the price has come down allot.
 
We find that since we upgraded our servers to 128GB RAM, most things are help in filesystem cache, especially when using CloudLinux optimumcache, so in reality, the SSDs are not really being stretched to their limits.
Memory cache is 1000s of times faster than SSD.
