Note if using an SSD with any device – here posted before are some hints to keep it running better for the long haul:

From above link – help for your SSD:
Furthermore, implement the instructions to get /var/log and /tmp on a ramdisk (/tmpfs).
Especially make sure you get Firefox's sqlite files on a ramdisk. If anything burns your SSDs, it will be Firefox.
There are links in the article to some other help sites (titles of links):

Would love to see the speed and power savings of ARM and Qualcomm stuff shown in EeePC (the one taken from Computex show floor that is a mystery), with Pixel Qi screen, and the AA battery design of the Gecko Edubook.
