I have two machines and four drives. I’m thinking about playing musical chairs with them.

My personal box is on a 2TB micron SSD and my node has a really nice seagate enterprise 4TB HDD. It is plenty of space but good grief it won’t stop whirrring endlessly.

Thinking of backing up my personal drive to a Samsung 500G SSD, move the 2TB to the server, and then use the 4TB HDD as a windows gaming drive.

It will be a pain to move everything around

I have 500GB of NVMe RAID 0 for my main drive.

I had a 1TB SSD for blockchain and games, but it died.

I just added a couple of 2TB SSDs, one for blockchain, and one for games. Hopefully they last longer.

My NVMe drives are over 3 years old. I probably should consider replacing them soon.

I “think” m.2’s are supposed to last a bit longer but don’t quote me. All my drives are quality but cheap and used. I use multiple drives to mitigate failure
