My instincts say stay with the most proven reliable tech for backups.

If nothing else, with SSDs, you are paying a premium for speed. That's not really a prime concern for backups, so let SSDs get their long term field testing done where they do the most good.

That being said, SSDs made for constant operation in a computer have to be at least as reliable as a USB flash drive, so it that's what you were going to use for backup anyway.....
