depends, if you do have a database heavy test suite, you probably need fast disks. our application really needs a good i/o performance. I tried to run 3-4 runs on the same machine with containerized cpu/memory, however as soon as 3 tests are running the i/o latency/performance goes numb, only thing that helped was either using different disks or faster disks.

Our Buildsystem (Jenkins) needs CPU and RAM. Couldn't bother less with SATA Performance.
Frontendserver also: Only needs CPU and RAM.
