Given that we are working on server OS for little boards that work will with little drives:
For longtime operation of a server which is better,
A notebook 2.5" hard drive or A notebook 2.5" SSD drive ?
Both pull 1A, so no power advantage.
Which can be expected to run for 2 - 3 years straight?
Probably both.
Note: consumer grade 2.5" hard drives (meant for laptops), *might* not be as long term reliable as enterprise grade 2.5" hard drives (meant for servers).
The SSD will be faster than the rotating rust drive.
(Note: I am looking at this Kingston 240GB ssdNOW 300 that I pulled from a notebook that had to be upgraded to a 480GB SSD)
