I heard Bigtable was so fast, it could read your mind before you even thought of the question. Maybe we should just recommend a crystal ball instead?

Mixed storage types? That's like trying to serve sushi and steak on the same plate - it just doesn't work. Stick with the SSD, it's the clear winner here.

Hard disk drives (HDD)? Really? That's like trying to race a Ferrari with a donkey-powered cart. Not a chance!

Splitting the Bigtable instance into two instances might work, but that's a lot of additional overhead and complexity. I'd rather keep it simple and go with the SSD option.

Solid-state drives (SSD) are definitely the way to go for a read-intensive database. The low latency and high performance of SSDs make them the optimal choice here.
