Is it clickbaity if they actually did save millions in SSD costs? What would you suggest as a non-clickbaity title? Just "Upgrading Our Filesystem" leaves out the important parts (the why and the results).
A lot of the time I agree that titles can be quite clickbaity. But this one doesn't really seem to be... At least to me. The company upgraded their filesystem and it saved them a bunch of money. Title feels appropriate.
If the title were "Top ways to save millions on SSDs!" or similar, I'd wholeheartedly agree.

SSD costs.
