Hi,

Some weeks ago in the context of Openmoko (my Linux based cellphone)
I came across to this very interesting article about file systems and
SSD; even if the article is in Linux context, it contains useful
information about how SSD behaves when updating blocks on SSD.

I have to admit, that I run an EeePC 900 netbook for many years now (with
now FreeBSD 10-CURRENT) and the only special option for the SSD (the
EeePC has only two SSD) is -noatime on mounting. But this is just a
small netbook to read stuff or write something when I'm in town and does
not need performance tweaking.

HIH
