SSDs aren't particularly worthwhile as 'storage' drives as such - but they very much are for boot or application drives.
Long-term stroage doesn't need to be quick, but does benefit from redundancy and over-capacity.
Hence why CERN and the like still rely upon tape for storage - it isn't the quickest or sexiest, but it's the only game in town when you need to record 6Gb data per second, for years on end...
