Re: Samsungs - I feel some of you are mixing and confusing different Samsung drives. There is a DC line of Samsung drives meant for DataCenter use. Those have EVO (write once read many) and PRO (write mostly) variants. You don't want to go anywhere near the EVO line with Ceph. Then there are "regular" EVO and PRO drives - they are not meant for server use so don't use them. The main difference is that the "DC" line should provide reliable and stable performance over time, no surprises, while the desktop drives can just pause and perform garbage collection and have completely different cache setup. If you torture desktop drive hard enough it will protect itself (slow down to a crawl). So the only usable drivess for us are "DC PRO" and nothing else.
