"On a per-gigabyte basis, SSD prices have fallen dramatically but are still
much higher than rotating-disk prices. SSD capacities range from 512MB to
399GB; the least-expensive configurations sell for about $1000, and high-end
systems sell for $400,000 or more. An SSD large enough to store an entire
application and data files could be prohibitively expensive, so systems
administrators typically use SSDs to read and write to frequently accessed
files (sometimes referred to as hot files). Hot files are typically 1 to 5
percent of a database application."
