Hi
Does anyone know if there exist any list of recommendations about how to make
an SSD disk to live as long as possible when using it for firewall purpose on
OpenBSD? It seems that OpenBSD lack some features related to SSDs like TRIM.
SSDs are getting more popular, but I cannot find much info in

I'd just use a regular install on a a modern SSD. flashrd and other

"I am afraid to upgrade".. is a total deal breaker, just buy a good SSD.
Install as if installing on a HDD, it does not make a difference, except
that you pay more. When you fill the SSD it will perform just as a HDD.

Very minor issues, but it will take user intervention (t

U told about a firewall, that one is no way a write intensive task, so in
this use case it would go well any SSD.
If u really think about a write intensive use case, I would go for Samsung
850EVO devices: the 500gb model of the previous 840pro has been tested to
write more than 1.9pb before dying

the reason I don't do that is because the sites where I have such firewalls
deployed don't have any other servers. I don't want to ship logs over VPN
