Description

Netgate has a list of which packages have an SSD requirement or recommendation at https://www.netgate.com/supported-pfsense-plus-packages but many do not know that page exists until long after they have installed NtopNG or another high I/O package, which creates a lifetime write issue on eMMC storage. (and hence, a disgruntled customer)

I suggest adding either a two word text description note ("SSD recommended") or checkbox column to indicate if an SSD is recommended or required for the package. Either can link the above page if desired. (and/or, the page can be linked on the available packages page?)

As a bonus, this may generate more "Max" model sales, in addition to said happier customer.
