While it would be nice for bayfront to have an SSD, it might actually be
more valuable to use those for some of the machines that do more of the
building.

harbourfront currently has a broken hard drive (I believe), and
milano-guix-1 has some slow hard drives that impede it building
things. I've CC'ed Andreas as I think he knows more about harbourfront,
and I'll follow up about milano-guix-1 off list.
