SSD Recomendations?
I have some RR4312X units with 4TB HDDs and wanting to shift over to SSDs. Just seeing if anyone has some good recomendations for drives to use. Thanks.

Are you going to use the SSDs for data or for tiering? I think SSDs would be best used for tiering but if you are planning on using the SSDs there might be a few brands that caters to large sized SSDs like Samsung or the WD Red SSDs but prices are way higher than the HDDs with the same cap.
I'm pretty sure there are Community members that are currently using or used SSDs before so let's wait for their input.

I actually have a very specific need for my consolidated logging and reporting utility I use for my security platform from Fortinet. When I had this data on the SATA drive array, access and performance was horrible due to low IOPS. I have moved it over to my main enterprise level flash based SAN and it works great; however, due to the premium it costs me for that system and space, I would rather house that data on a less costly SSD array.
