I just can't get used to the concept on an expiration date on my storage. I've got rust here that's been spinning for a decade,
FWIW, I have several systems using SSD only. The maker being Crucial. I was not an early adopter. I looked at the "worst" system which uses the SSD entirely and hosts several Virtual Machine images as well as being used for Video processing and compiles, SMART reports a power on time of 16,760 hrs. It also estimates this to be 3% of the expected lifetime. The Reallocate_NAND_Blk_Cnt is 0. Just like any storage component if one is concerned with potential failure the protection against that is RAID. Nothing stops one from using SSD in a RAID configuration and achieve the performance advantages. FYI, I've replaced a WD Red drive in an NFS server after just about 3 years of operation. At this rate it is entirely possible that my SSD drives will outlive me. :-( -- If simple questions can be answered with a simple google query then why are there so many of them? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
