For occasional NAS use SSDs are probably already more durable than HDDs.
For home use I think the age of spinners is coming to an end.


I have 2x 4TB spinners in RAID1 for my samba box, I think I'd be loathe
to burn a grand to have them be SSD.


When looking around recently, if you can get away with the smaller
sizes then the price difference between NAS spinners and NAS SSD's
aren't far apart. 80 quid for a 1TB 2.5" WD Red and ~£90 for 'a' 1TB
SSD and ~100 for a Sammy.
