Trying to convince management that many big companies have already gone to SSD but having no luck finding recent numbers.
asked
What percentage of SQL Server databases use SSDs to speed their IO?
Your going to struggle to find that type of answer. Most companies wont post their infrastructure details for various reasons.
Your best bet is to find information from vendors over SSD vs HDD performance and compare contranst, get vendors in, get free trials of SAN's etc if they allow you too so you can put some workloads their then weigh up.
You've got a lot of convincing management to do on this though if they are very reluctant to invest in new infra.
