What's your use case that demands lots of drive writes? hmm.gif

For most users, something like the 860 EVO or the Pro should be fine, unless you want to pay high prices for those enterprise grade drives icon_idea.gif

I see...

I did read this up a little and it seem SSD also not suitable. Just being used to swap plot that are to be written into HDD later since HDD is much slower. I wonder if internet connection speed also play a role.

SSD with high endurance is used to create plots that will be put on large capacity hard disks for mining. Each plot is around 102GB in size and will eat SSD's write endurance around 1.8TB per plot. For comparison, 27 plots means average time of 7-8 months per successful mine currently, but it kept growing lel

Wow... At first thought wanna mine but looks like needs really fast internet. Seems like an expensive startup if need one piece of 2tb ssd.

internet speed doesn't matter. SSD is just to prepare plots

I think big RAM caching will help a bit. Primocache!!

I'm not to knowledgeable haha, but i saw ppl bragging on running parallel plotting, 5 per enterprise SSD for total of 40 using xeon 20 cores and 384GB ram, 40 plots in 5 hours

for me just playing around, takes around 7 hours fastest iinm
