You can install OpenBSD on SSD. I did about half a year ago on the server with 64 cores and 512 GB or RAM just to find out that
Code:
mv filename filename2
takes three minutes. I am guessing it had to do something with block aliments (by default OpenBSD start at 64) but I am not sure if even that will help. As much as I like OpenBSD network stack I would really like to see something like HAMMER(2) ported to it.
