Of course, but they are not common, and they happen in background.

I am not interested in the performance of my filing syetem on my network
server since it is more than fast enough for everything I need of it.

Why is this so hard to understand?

I never disputed that SSD would give greater read and possibly write
performance. Only that that was something i *needed to have*.

I dont.

Beyond 'more than good enough compared with the network through which I
access it'

I uses SSDS on my desktops for faster booting and program load. They are
pointless on my networked server. I cant deliver files TO it  or FROM it
faster than the netrwork and that is slower than SATA spinning rust OK?
