Sure it was. An SSD that is readily available and relatively inexpensive can be
very useful and be the right one for the purpose. Another one that isn't

IIRC, you're the one trying to argue against experience, claiming that the
experience wasn't how it was while it was as it was, and that conclusions drawn
from the experience are invalid while they aren't.
