Rappel : les SSD *PERDENT* des données s'ils ne sont pas régulièrement branchés.
Sur les SSD grand pubic, branchez-les au moins une fois par an.
Sur les SSD "pro", branchez-les au moins tous les 6 mois.

Corollaire : Sur ces supports il peut être intéressant d'utiliser des systèmes de fichiers qui checksumment toutes les données et méta données afin de détecter les corruptions, comme btrfs.
Most people don't realize how fast storage on SSD's degrades, the old harddisk was much better.

Do you support the @internetarchive?
I have a large pile of old laptop 2.5" HDD drives (NOT SSD) in varying GB sizes. I think I might do something mad with them and build a 20 drive (or more) RAID NAS.
The only thing I need really, is 20 port (or more) SATA PCI-E card... Does such a thing exist?
Oh look, another #YouTube video pondering the mind-boggling mystery of how long an #SSD can hold your cat videos when it's off . Spoiler alert: it's still not forever. But hey, if you're looking to kill some time, why not test new YouTube features instead?

One thing I'm conscious of is the SSD on this Toughpad.
It's a 128GB mSATA device made by Toshiba (THNSNF12). It's probably seen a few drive writes by now.
Now, back in the day OCZ were early pioneers of SSDs… and I had a work colleague that swore by them at first. He had one in a fire-engine red Dell laptop and loved the speed the thing gave him … until the day it failed (within the warranty period).
Pulled the SSD out, put the HDD back in, RMAed the SSD. A replacement came, he put it in, ran with that for a number of months, then it too, failed. After the third RMAed drive, "sworn by" became "sworn at".
Toshiba bought OCZ in 2016, so I'm a bit leery about this SSD.
That said, mSATA is not a common form factor now, so I guess I'll have to take what I can get. The contenders seem to be Kingston, Advantech, Transcend, ADATA, or some brand I've never heard of.
Kingston RAM runs some of my servers, and I've used their SD cards before. That said, I recall an experiment from 2011 that tested a number of 60GB SSDs to destruction (SSD Endurance Test) and I seem to recall Kingston being one of the early failures … but search engines being what they are today, I can't seem to dig that old site up.
We'll see how this one goes… as I say beggars can't be choosers, and this is a rare form-factor now.
Hui die erste PCIe 5.0 SSDs mit dem SM2508 Controller ist ein teuer Spaß laut einer ersten Europreislistung.

Anderseits ist sie auf dem Papier sogar noch nen wenig schneller unterwegs als Samsung's 9100 Pro.

About a week late on this but RIP Al Barile. I didn’t prescribe to SSD’s straight edge stance but this was such a huge album in my life during the high school years and beyond. As brutal a hardcore album as you’re likely to hear. It’s so good and still holds up big time. Essential punk classic. #albarile #ssd #societysystemdecontrol #xclaim! #bostonhardcore #hardcore #pushead #punkrecords #punk #recordcollection @vinylrecords
Storage winners and losers in Trump's #tariff-happy world
#US tariffs to heavily impact #HDD and #SSD, increasing costs
#Seagate, #Toshiba, and #WesternDigital have different supply chains, but subject to risks of substantial tariffs, particularly on drives produced in China (124%), Malaysia (24%), Philippines (17%), and Thailand (36%).
#NAND fabricated in Japan or Singapore but diced, tested, and packaged in China, the SSD origin is very likely to be considered China.

Time to sort out my data backups accumulated over time and purge the unneeded old ones
I was also thinking replacing them with SSDs but don't see much benefit atm, only cost.
Better if I make a NAS from the old miniITX system laying around (even if it's quite underpowered and missing some parts ) and use 2 of those HDDs in a RAID1... When I will feel myself not too lazy ofc
SuperDuper! v3.10 B4 now available (well, it was available a few days ago for auto-update, but it took a while to write the blog post).

NVMe для HDD: как новая технология решает проблемы хранения данных ИИ
Системы искусственного интеллекта сталкиваются с серьезной проблемой: как хранить и обрабатывать огромные объемы данных, необходимые для обучения и работы моделей. Традиционные решения уже не справляются с требованиями скорости, масштабируемости и экономичности. Решением могут стать жесткие диски с интерфейсом NVMe. Они сочетают в себе экономичность HDD с производительностью NVMe, устраняя узкие места в системах хранения данных для ИИ. Seagate впервые представила прототип таких накопителей в 2021 году на саммите Open Compute Project, а в марте 2025 года на конференции GTC компания продемонстрировала уже полноценное решение, интегрирующее NVMe HDD с современной платформой Mozaic 3+ и процессорами обработки данных NVIDIA BlueField-3. Разбираемся, как NVMe HDD могут изменить подход к хранению данных для ИИ и стать ключевым элементом будущих инфраструктур.
