Default Anybody have experience r/w audio and hosting your OS to the same SSD?

Obviously your suppose to read and write audio to a separate hard drive than the hard drive where your OS(window 7) is. But what if its an SSD 220Mb vs 110 on a Caviar Black.

Can you read and write to the same drive as your OS if its an SSD?

Anyone have experience in this?

Thank you

Still would not recommend it at all. Also, if you have issues, Avid doesn't support it and so I'm not sure how much help you will really get if you do have issues.

I thought that recording to SSD's is not good due to their limited write/read capability. My reading suggests that they are dandy for system and samples, but not so for recording.

Youve been given a response. Of course it will work, but SSD's are not as reliable as they are marketed as, unless your buying an SLC SSD, which are very expensive.
