Understand flash and apply where appropriate

From Wikibon

EMC's announcement incorporating flash drive technology represents the possible resurgence of solid state disks (SSD) in high end disk systems and will likely have ripple effects throughout the industry. Users should understand the benefits of the technology and apply it where appropriate. Comparisons with conventional disks are simple but not meaningful as value for performance (not value for capacity) is the key to understanding the benefits of SSD.
