We use SSD drives in our RAID 10 Arrays. Overall they are great as long as you have a backup. RAM has a limited number of reads and writes before it doesn't work any more.

The only real reason to use SSD is for speed!

Since we have ALOT of reads and rights happening on our servers for hosting customers, SSD are a good option. But for your home computer or laptop, not so much. SSD get really unhappy if they are moved around a lot. Apple had major issues with the SSD drives they put into the MacBook Pros here recently.
