Comment (by danielluke):
Is that critique based on experience or data? I've had significantly
better experience with the reliability of SSDs vs traditional disks both
at home and work. (SSDs are generally over provisioned enough to make up
for the lower number of P/E cycles as they've moved from SLC -> MLC -> TLC
-> QLC). It should be possible to monitor the 'wear' on the SSD in the
build server and determine if it's going to 'use up' whatever drive is
chosen too quickly or not.
