I don't think it is a SSD (it has cylinders, sectors etc.).
If you can tell me a way to check it I will be glad to do it.
This is the output of diskinfo -v /dev/ada0 in case it answers the question=
:

/dev/ada0
=09512         =09# sectorsize
=09320072933376=09# mediasize in bytes (298G)
=09625142448   =09# mediasize in sectors
=094096        =09# stripesize
=090           =09# stripeoffset
=09620181      =09# Cylinders according to firmware.
=0916          =09# Heads according to firmware.
=0963          =09# Sectors according to firmware.
=09HGST HTS545032A7E680=09# Disk descr.
=09TMA45DZG06UX8R=09# Disk ident.
=09No          =09# TRIM/UNMAP support
=095400        =09# Rotation rate in RPM
=09Not_Zoned   =09# Zone Mode

These are are lines of top's header (poudriere is building one of the ports=
 I think
might be problematic):
