Apologies for the top post.
Is there a company/sponsor that if we sent them the money would agree to buy SSDs for the build farm?
I can imagine $8000 in SSDs having a major impact on the build farm. And that in turn could draw in even more obs users/contributors.

The only issue that I have with this is that OBS would probably not benefit from SSDs. We were having this discussion on a different oS ML. SSDs do really poorly at writing data to the disk. Its very likely that we wouldn't gain much from buying a bunch of SSDs. Keeping this suggestion in mind it might be good to ask adrain, coolo, darix, or someone in that area what they could really benefit from right now.
