I cannot get it to run from upgrade or ISO distribution. Hangs with ntfs errors.
I have it running on a laptop and 2 Desktops. An SSD is really not much different than any other hard drive, just much faster. 10 runs very well on SSDs.
Running it on an SSD in my laptop as well. You need to supply more info. Upgrading to 10 from? or a clean install? Where did you get your install media? How did you do the install?

Yes.
I had the same problem, but in my case it did not flag any NTFS problems. Have a look at my post Win Fixit tool - error 0x80070075(2015-10-01-T-05_08_08P) Not fixed - Windows 10 blog tried all the MS tools and software, finally had to clean the partition and start fresh from Windows 7.I cannot get it to run from upgrade or ISO distribution.

I could not get the upgrade to go on a newish laptop where I had installed a Samsung 850 EVO 500GB 2.5" SATA III Internal Solid State Drive. I had to move the SSDI image to a regular hard disk, perform the upgrade to Windows 10, then move the image back to the SSD.
I did an upgrade from 8.1 to W10 on my Dell XPS 15 with SSD. Everything went well and system runs great.
I got install media from Microsoft.
I first upgraded from 8.1 to 10 on laptop HDD. Created a system image and restored onto SSD. Started having the hangs (taskbar, any file explorer operations). I then used Acronis to clone the HDD to SSD. Same problem. I downloaded the 10 pro ISO and did fresh instal (after using getstateofos.exe for license). Problem. I ran sfc /scannow but it shows no errors. Updated the Asus BIOS and reinstalled. Problem. It just will not function on my SSD. Crucial MX200 1TB. As stated 10 works great with HDD. Problem is with SSD.
edit: Doing all of this I have repartitioned and checked the SSD several times. These operations work fine. It is just the Windows 10 OS that causes the problem. It runs for 5-20 minutes then just hangs. The taskbar stops working first, but sometimes an working application continues to work until the filesystem gets hit, eventually the screen goes blank and I have to shutdown and reboot to get it working again until it hangs.
I bought a laptop running Win 10 on a hdd, cloned that hdd to an ssd and it runs fine.
Could there be a problem with your SSD? I also can confirm I have Win10 running smooth on all my ssds (multiple computers).
Did you do any performance benchmarking or use your SSD for a long time period (years)? Heavy formatting, or other such SSD wearing?
You can check for errors, some BIOS/UEFI have built-in diagnostic for such a thing, but not all. Could check with MS disk check (you have to put it into a computer with Windows installed; doesn't have to be on the SSD itself).
