I strongly recommend SSDs that have write buffer protection, implemented via a internal bank of 'supercaps' for any sort of server application. Suitable drives include Intel S3500, Samsung SM863/PM863, Seagate 1200.2 SAS, etc. Note many of these come in varying levels of write endurance, if your application is write/update intensive, such as an OLTP relational database, you want the high write endurance versions.
