Re: Consumer-grade SSD in Ceph

I had. 100-200 write iops with iodepth=1, ~5k iops with iodepth=128. These were intel 545s.

Not that awful, but micron 5200 costs only a fraction more, so it seems pointless to me to use desktop samsungs.

Hi all,

Thanks for the replies. I am not worried about their lifetime. We will be adding only 1 SSD disk per physical server. All SSD’s are enterprise drives. If the added consumer grade disk will fail, no problem.

I am more curious regarding their I/O performance. I do want to have 50% drop in performance.

So anyone any experience with 860 EVO or Crucial MX500 in a Ceph setup?

Thanks!

The way I try to look at this is:


1) How much more do the enterprise grade drives cost?

2) What are the benefits? (Faster performance, longer life, etc)

3) How much does it cost to deal with downtime, diagnose issues, and replace malfunctioning hardware?


My personal take is that enterprise drives are usually worth it. There may be consumer grade drives that may be worth considering in very specific scenarios if they still have power loss protection and high write durability. Even when I was in academia years ago with very limited budgets, we got burned with consumer grade SSDs to the point where we had to replace them all. You have to be very careful and know exactly what you are buying.

I dont think “usually” is good enough in a production setup.

Usually it doesn't, it only harms performance and probably SSD
lifetime
too

I would not be running ceph on ssds without powerloss protection. I
delivers a potential data loss scenario
