May 13, 20206 yr Can Unraid handle BOTH SATA and SAS drives or ONLY SATA? I cannot seem to find definitive answers on this matter. Edited May 13, 20206 yr by sekrit spelling error
May 13, 20206 yr Author Interesting... So, if I will only use SSD's for SAS, can that still cause damage to the SSD's?
May 13, 20206 yr Community Expert Not spining down won't cause any damage, on the contrary, most believe it's better for the devices to always be spun up, just not so good for noise/power.
May 13, 20206 yr Author You're the BEST!!! Last question... Any updates on ZFS potential for coming to Unraid in 2020?

Ironically (while i'm stoked about the new pooling features), I look forward to it getting done. I am REALLY hoping that once they finish the storage pools, that they will focus on some Server to server communication/load balancing for iommu passthroughs etc. Essentially I want some clusters to balance entertainment, content productions, security across my LANS. 😄
July 2, 20206 yr What I noticed on the SAS drives is that they're running hotter than SATA. I guess the 72K RPM does that for you. You will need better airflow and ventilation if you go with SAS. Ask me how I know
