November 2, 20205 yr Hi all, A query I have; I have an NVME drive failing SMART because it's passed it's probable amount of data it can store ok. This is an unassigned drive, on it is Docker.img, appdata, libvirt, and my VM images. I have one VM (proxy gateway) that I setup a few weeks ago. I have a dozen Docker images, Plex, and the supporting containers . Nothing that I would consider to be write intensive to itself. I mean, I know Plex will store media files etc, but what I have seems out of the ordinary: Power on time is 296.5 days, less than a year. 141TB??? It's a 128GB drive, 32gb for Docker.img, 90GB used in total. I've done some reading and I know I could over-provision it, but is there something I can check for? Is there someway to identify whats being written so often to the drive so I could move it to rust? I'm thinking of putting a 256GB in there, but if that's not going to last 2 years, it's a costly expenditure.
November 3, 20205 yr Author I'm learning a lot here, but from what I can see this relates to a RAD-1 scenario, which I don't have. But yeah, I am seeing everything else.

Good. I could swap this one to XFS, but tbh it's already dead. I'll put in a new one, XFS and hope 6.9 comes out sooner rather than later.
