You'd likely not want to that except with an SLC based SSD product as MLC is beat down over time based on number of write actions. A scratch disk would likely burn through those write cycles relatively quickly.
I think a RAID-0 with 2 drives would cost less and last a lot longer than using an SSD for scratch + provide pretty similar performance. Or - add a 3rd drive and beat for sure.
SSD rocks - just need to make some considerations.
