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?

(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)

thanks
