Do you need 3K independent commits per second? Or can you batch them? Even just turning off synchronous_commit would move the goalposts pretty far in terms of the storage hardware you'll need for this.

I think I can modify my application to do a batch update. Right now the server has an HDD and it really can't handle a lot of updates and inserts per second. Would changing to a regular SSD be able to easily do 3000 updates per second?
