Sadly I don't have the money at this time to pop for a 2tb ssd.  So I was wondering about a sshd. I might do it just to find out and measure the differences. Going from a standard drive i saw major reductions in time for searches, as well as adding books, metadata changes in bulk. I hate to give much of that up. Conversions I'm not so worried about as I think as spoken of here that it is more cpu bound and though fast im still only pushing a 2.5 ghz xeon
Sigh just took a moment to look at upgrading my cpu and it isn't worth it.. E5 1265 vs3 2.5 ghz cpu is only about 10% behind performance of a i7 3770 which is the fastest cpu that will go in my mother board that I can tell. Price is to much still to bother for only a 10% cpu gain. im pushing 8000ish cpu marks so can't complain for 5 year old computer. It's funny but It would cost me more now to build the same computer. Ram is higher, used cpu of the model I have is more than I spent on it new. hard drives are pretty much the only thing cheaper than then for the same item. |
Hmm, how about RAID-0 with another 1TB SSD (albeit be extra vigilant with backup and replication)?
