Modern harddrives and SSDs do a lot of work internally, SSDs especially. Probably the most important thing that an SSD does is wear-levelling, keeping an internal map of sectors and remapping them to ensure equal wear (so the OS never knows which sector it's actually writing to). This makes file system choice nearly inconsequential on a modern SSD (this doesn't apply to flash drives and flash cards though). The only important thing is TRIM, which should be enabled by default on nearly everything (just ensure that AHCI is set in the bios, and not IDE-Mode).
