Can Servers Use Solid State Drives?
 

I am curious from those server tech pers, can servers use SSD's or not? I wonder as doing tests on my home system from a 15k SCSI to an SSD, the response times are amazing to say the least, in that the startup alone is now around 3 seconds, total time... everything is instantaneous compared to waiting on a HDD to find, write, read, etc vs. solid state technology.

I am wondering though whether whilst it is good for a home system, does it have a massive vulnerability in servers vs. conventional HDD's? Whilst I understand they don't do RAID, or maybe they do and I missed it, I wouldn't see why they would need such a thing because they are near instantaneous compared to a HDD. The only thing I can see from my limited scope is that it would require something different to mimic drives for backup purposes.

Is there a catch to them for servers? Beyond cost!!!
