I'm using the 400Gb models as a Journal for 12x drives. I know this is probably pushing it a little bit, but seems to work fine. I'm guessing the reason may be relating to the TBW figure being higher on the more expensive models, maybe they don't want to have to replace warn NVME's on warranty? > -----Original Message----- > From: ceph-users [mailto:ceph-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of William Josefsson > Sent: 18 November 2016 13:43 > To: ceph-users <ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Intel P3700 SSD for journals > > Hi list, I wonder if there is anyone who have experience with Intel > P3700 SSD drives as Journals, and can share their experience? > > I was thinking of using the P3700 SSD 400GB as journal in my ceph deployment.
