Any benefit to using a SSD vs Flash drive for ESXI install? (Other than potential reliability)
- IE: Using the SSD for logs?
-- Any performance hit doing this?
-- Any other usage for SSD ESXI host drive?
You can snag Intel 320s for $15-20 each new for 40gb, and I'd feel more comfortable with that reliable controller, and NAND vs a flash drive... but am curious if any other benefits, or if it's worth looking at an Intel 520 or Samsung 830 for it, all of which are much more $ than $15-20 but if i can double-duty it seems like it may be worth it?
