Ah, that article seems to suggest you need a big SSD, even with secondary hard
drive. Maybe for Windoze? I have built a dozen or so linux workstations with
a piddling 120 GB SATA SSD for root and swap and 4 or 5 GB hard drive for home.
The smallest SSD boot drive that I would put in a Windows box is a 512
GB for $68.
