I've run tests with several different drive types and wondering what your favorites are?
> What measures / attributes do you look for in a drive? (price / capacity / speed / energy / noise / reliability) > Favorite INTERNAL drives to use w/Linux? (Brand / capacity / model / SSD / HDD) > Favorite EXTERNAL USB drives to use w/Linux? (Brand / capacity / model) > Do you routinely run I/O performance / speed tests prior to / during use? > Do you follow an established storage / backup plan for your PERSONAL / PROFESSIONAL work? > Have you had any issues using on-disk encryption daily / backup use? > Have you weighed the trade-offs of PMR vs SMR? I'll recap drive performance results at the August meeting, while discussing a new build with the Ryzen 3 3200G. Any comments welcome, Brian https://www.backblaze.com/blog/hard-drive-buying-guide/ _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
