Everything has all been RAID1, the old setup had the write-back cache,
all the new setups don't have battery backed up cache, so they are all
write-through setups. 

I'm not sure SSD would bring much, so far it has been controller failures, 
and not disk failures. Everything has all been enterprise grade drives in 
every iteration.
