Now im considering putting a SSD in both my home computers as well. At this point, they're pretty cheap. You might spend $100-$150 on a decent 240GB SSD, but the extra $$$ is well worth it imo.

I'd love to see where you got your info on WD drives having "stupidly high" failure rates.
Hitachi has slightly lower failure rates, but WD is not "stupidly high."
