My current server is using a 128GB SSD caching for a 1t 5400 rpm drive.
Right now i am at about 400GB of data on that combination, and the SSD is
sitting at about 50-60% utilization. which is about as expected as some of
the data is touched infrequently and some of it is used all the time.
So i wo
Good to know - I was contemplating doing this with some spinners in it
for bulk storage, as I have some 2tb's left over now. Peeling off some
of those 512's to cache for the spinners might make them more useful so
I don't have to burn space on the ssd's exclusively.
How much ssd do you end up
I still want to try dmraid-1 plus nvme drive with lvmcache.
PS SSD based lvmcache has been running well for me.

I've been doing so for probably a good 7-8 years now in various
capacities with single disk or raid, but been doing raid usually
choosing even laptops with dual drive capabilities for the past 5-6 years.
Most ssd's have died within a year, but usually only one. My desktop

I haven't built anything on these directly, but I've encountered them on
servers a little bit, and there are some specifics related to the kernel and
UEFI that may help clarify the interactions for your configuration.
The way the linux F/S stack (at least currently) interacts with nvme devices i
I have so far stuck with Samsung SSDs for the fde, as I was afraid
running luks would shorten the life span. How long have you been running
an SSD with luks? Have you noticed any degredation?
Or seen any good articles about it?

Curious if anyone has taken the plunge to play with nvme-based ssd's
under linux here? Particularly around raid.
Not finding a lot pertaining to them that is positive toward linux on
the tubes, and I'm looking to reproduce my usual raid1+luks+lvm atop
them, so feedback on doing so would be ap
