I hadn’t considered that, it makes all the sense of course, as a NAS, even when torrenting with cache enabled, will give an SSD less wear and tear than an HDD.

It comes down to price vs everything else

TIL about TLC vs QLC, thanks

I guess my next Nas will be SSD then

Are they really more reliable than NAS “grade” HDD - and a ssd cache? I always saw SSD with a max write on them, and a NAS does plenty of I/O.

Admittedly I’ve never had an SSD go bad in my computers, but for some reason I never considered them as a good enough alternative for a NAS.

Are there any data you know of the top of your head before I go searching?

Are people really doing NAS with SSD? Not just for cache?
