This a a 50/50 I’ve read a lot of research about this, and it’s outdated, “according to new drive specs” it’s not an issue. Soon find out, but I do think the entire community needs a definitive answer.

Cheers thank you, one system I’m just burning in now is a 11 drive system, 1 x ssd is, 8 x for the pool, with 1 hot spare, and 1x 760gb as a cache drive for vms , and a 1.5tb drive for Vm;s . 2x nic GBE . The performance is stunning. For additional sata ports I used a £26 pci-e 8 port sata card, as board had 6 on board. supprising the 6 core cpu and 12gb ram. Todays burn test will involve. 5 PC’s 1x MAC Air 1x MAC Pro all backing up 60gb group of mixed files 3 times over.... next nas nas will be full SSD, but will take approx a month to validate, 12 1tb ssd + 1 cache + 1 log ! ‘’Thanks for the input. ‘’Rich

Hi , ‘I’m wanting to build a nas system entirely of ssd based drives. The capacity many Cary from 4tb - 8tb and some for redundancy 1. The sound is 0 2. Lower power comsumption 3. Cheaper is there any advise you can give me, as I’ve read many articles, and am confused as a can of spaghetti, plus I’m not a millionaire to afford iornwolf drives. Thanks in advance antdonn
