Hello;

Would like to know which one you use on your server. my server will be a mix of personal projects and for shared hosting, when it comes to picking which is BEST for business i find it hard.

SSD is always better for performance but expensive.

Here you have to do your own calculations. How many hosting plans you can sell and how much you can charge for each.

Also for an example, if you are selling 5GB hosting Plans.. not always every customer use this 5GB available.

And your point?
 
I use both.

SSD for OS and I/O Data (/var) and a large HDD to store backups and low access files.
