When tech evolves, especially in development, versioning issues can arise. I love building stuff with great technology. You can re-download all the other crap and write scripts to get things tweaked the way you like them.Precious Luke Follow Open source crusader. I wouldn't worry too much about SSDs failing - but DO have good backups of your personal data. If they take the #, re image them and I'm back up and running in a couple of hours. Since I have servers that backup to the cloud using Veeam, I treat my workstations like cattle - disposable dumb clients.
In business environments, I have seen SSDs fail, however I have not had one personally fail on me.
All of my files have moved to a DFS server running in my homelab that lives on a 24 disk 200TB SAN in RAID6. (Hell back in my day, we didn't have SSDs!) Now days, SSDs are so cheap and fast that I just purchase 2TB m.2 ssds and store my OS and application data on the same disk. This was at one point done for performance reasons due to the short comings of mechanical disks and the price/capacity ratio of SSDs. Thank you all for the replies and putting me at ease for future when i do eventually get 2 M.2 drives or replace this 4TB with a Sata SSD that is always possible in the future if i don't manage to get motherboard upgraded at some point in way future.Īt my peak, I had 2 disks in Raid 1 for the OS, 3 in RAID5 for my data, and 4 in RAID 10 for my applications. And ignore other comments on reddit that say i'm sacrificing performance way my build is setup and wearing out 4TB drive faster than if i stored my media files on C M.2 drive. My Dream motherboard ( ASUS Z590-PLUS TUF Gaming WiFi Intel LGA 1200 ATX Motherboard - Micro Center) if i knew how to install components on newer boards like Processor, CPU Coolers, i'd probably buy it and get it all setup, and have my dream machine with more M.2 Slots-then my Main OS Drive would be Current M.2, and 2nd one would be for Libraries and Media, and 4tB WD Black would probably turn into for maybe VIdeo File storage perhaps i suppose.īut since i'm stuck with Gigabyte B460M-DS3H motherboard just will be happy with my 1 M.2 and current setup as it is, and enjoy my build to best of my ability-as its best i can do at the moment.
