Hi!
2 of my drives failed recently (as well as an external drive), plus my faithful HP Proliant Gen 8 is ripe for retirement (I’m small potatoes compared to you guys).
So I bought a mini-PC (with a N100). I’m considering going all SSDs.
What are the cheapest ones? They can be slow.
Is there a “storage SSD” category?
I’ve looked at OEMs but they’re not that interesting, or I didn’t know where to look.
Aliexpress is full of fakes. As is the second hand market. Or it’s legit but as expensive as new.
Thanks for reading!
And probably not server grade requirements.
I could upgrade my requirements to server grade, but not the budget, so I would say the driving factor is budget :)
Hand me a bunch of server grade ssds for the price of consumer and I would gladly install them.
Oh sure, server grade stuff is cool, but rarely needed for a home lab.
