There are decent LARGE studies of storage device reliability. I'd rather look at such data than at the data of any single consumer. You previously mentioned Backblaze. Indeed, they have some interesting studies to look at (even though their hard drives have a bit of a different workload than a consumer NAS running LMS). A short side note on the S.M.A.R.T. data you showed: S.M.A.R.T. is not a very accurate indicator of upcoming drive failures. (You may be aware of that; I just wanted to mention it in case you weren't.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ poing's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63617 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103359 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
