Hi everyone, I need help picking the most appropriate storage for my Proxmox VE. My research kinda let me confused. I did read threads on proxmox forum about PVE eating up the SSDs and many recommended to go for a Enterprise level SSDs. So I decided to go that route but im kinda stuck on deciding what kind of SSD should i get.
Current Specs:
CPU: i7-8700K
MB: Asus Z370-PRO GAMING
RAM: 32GB Kingston Hyperx Fury 3200MHz
SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 256GB(PVE installed)
SSD: Random Intel NVME 512GB pulled out of a laptop
I’ve got an Micron 7400 Pro M.2 22x110 mm SSD very recently that I use with Ceph as a block.db device.
I also use a Firecuda SSD with Ceph. But my Ceph instance has not been in use for long, or in heavy use, so I can’t give a comparison in wear level between to 2 SSDs. But I kind of expect that I will not use ceph so heavily that the wear level / TBW written between the 2 SSDs will matter in the next 2-3 years. But I’ve read some article that said that SSDs with power loss protection will perform better.
