I am currently running my Windows VMs (VMWare Fusion) from OCZ SSD disk. Obviously speed is great, but is this a good idea in respect with potential wear of the SSD disk (a lot of writes...)? The other option is to move my VMs to internal RAID0 (Black Caviars). What do you think?
Got a tip for us?

See that thread, it should be enough to tell you that there won't be an issue, unless you write hundreds of GBs each day.

Thank a lot Hellhammer. The VMs are about 90GB in total, usually are running all day long. I have no idea what and how much they write during the running, however it is not in hundreds of GBs area for sure.
