If you want an SSD on PCIe, any reason why you are not looking at SSDs built into PCIe cards? E.g. OCZ Vector or RevoDrive PCIe cards, but there's several other alternatives too.
We've been using it for about 15 months now without any problems with RADOS. Last winter we had some data loss with CephFS and needed to rebuild the filesystem from backup, but CephFS is unsupported so it was somewhat expected. I think the issues came from the Linux kernel client (circa the 3.2 kernel iirc), so we switched over to the FUSE client instead and have been on that since.
Good news is that performance is much, much better with 0.61 than prior releases. Both for RADOS and CephFS. We'll probably upgrade to 0.67 in the next few weeks and it's probably time to upgrade to the 3.10 kernel as well for btrfs fixes and to kick the tires on the kernel fs client again.
