how long running?
especially mailserver are write-expensive

short ago where a large SSD advterised at heise which
would be dead after a year with the writes of my personal
home/virtualization server and the bad thing at SSD's is
that the often die from one moment to the next while on
rotating media you recognize usaully that a drive goes
bad before it is completly gone
