Yes, the article gave me the impression that for 'high write' activity, they could be less reliable if used on a Linux server with standard filesystems. Thanks for pointing out that Wear Levelling remediates the problem. I misunderstood that initially
What I am really trying to clarify is whether the 'number-of-write lifetime' issues for SSD would make it less or more reliable compared to regular disks.
