Ok, so I know SSD's are in general, much faster and superior to traditional hard drives (well, cost and capacity notwithstanding).
But, I've heard conflicting things about how good SSD's are for music recording. Some people say they are great and provide a sustantial performance boost (as they do for most applications).
But I've also heard people mention that, because of the way SSD's work, they are inefficient for music recording?
Now, on top of this, I know about how SSD's wear down over time (but this seems to be an issue that doesn't appear to be a problem in day to day life, from what I've read), and I've heard that the SSD's provided by mac are not really that fast (for an SSD at least).
So, with all of this in mind... are SSD's good or bad for music production computers? Will they make my studio faster or "better"? Or are they problematic for music making? And I mean reasonably heavy music production. I'm not recording a symphony orchestra, but I use multiple software and audio tracks in my projects, using Logic, Ableton... and good old Garageband...
Thanks!
