Using this as a Cache for my unraid server. Makes everything snappy! Good temps, using Scrutiny docker to keep an eye on it. So far only a few weeks on it, but so far so good.
My homelab VMs run off my Synology NAS (NFS), I was seeing quite bad latency issues in certain scenarios. I ran the SSD advisor which notified me I’d need 56GB of total cache space.
Being my usual overkill self, I bought a pair of these for my caching drives.
What a surprise, I’m currently at 450ish GB reusable in cache and latency is massively reduced, so kinda ignore the SSD advisor on the Synology NAS if you’re running NFS and iSCSI workloads for homelabs (I can’t say if this is a winner for production stuff).
Ich habe mir zwei von den 1TB SN700 gekauft, um sie in meiner Synology DS723+ als Read/Write Cache zu betreiben. Sie wurden sofort erkannt und man merkt einen deutlichen Unterschied in der Performance.
Die Produktregistrierung lief problemlos, man bekommt tatschlich 5 Jahre Garantie. Sehr schn!
Auch unter Last wird die SSD nicht hei, wirklich super. Selbst bei greren Datenmengen komme ich nichtmal ber 45C.
Man muss natrlich anmerken, dass diese SSDs nicht offiziell von Synology untersttzt werden. Diese Liste ist aber mMn. nicht ernstzunehmen, da nur deren eigene Produkte aufgefhrt sind.
Fast and not to hot. Work perfectly in Qnap TS-873A
Stays steady at WRITING 1200megaBYTE/s until it maxed out. There’s no such thing as cache, but the reads are all over the place, sometimes 2200mbyte/s for a couple of minutes, sometimes stays steady at 1000mbyte/s, sometimes drops to 900mbyte/s. Anyways, the lowest it dropped was 900mbyte/s.
These were all tests done by moving large VM containers, smallest are 100GB each, some as big as 1TB. And yes, I use this drive mainly to host my VM containers off of. Creating and destroying VM containers require more “writing” than reading, and the read speed isn’t that poor neither.
TL;DR, it won’t win any drag races, but since it acts like having no cache at all, it will ALWAYS offer STEADY performance even if you smash it over and over again. There is no recovery time for cache, as there IS no cache. (it acts like having no cache) And the speeds are much faster than QLC and TLC when their cache is exhausted.
Cons, it still gets toasty like any other NVME drive, so make sure you stick a heatsink on. If you use it as an external drive, make sure you pay the extra $10 with nice metal chassis and includes thermal pads enclosures. This NVME drive costs a lot (with or without discount), so you can’t skimp out and buy the cheapest NVME enclosure out there. Also buy the 10Gbps enclosure if you can afford it too.
i had 2 plain (but supported) Crucial NVMEs in my QNAP 873. They would regularly “fail”. Took them out and tested. No issues. Put them in back in and would be fine for a couple of weeks then one would fail again. Never any issues always green. Decided to try these REDs and they have been fine since. Expect it’s because I had the crucial ones in a raid set and they could not cope with that but these REDs do.
i would’ve expected a screw to come with it but apart from that all good
Slower rpm than a WD blue but with a much longer lifespan.
Recognised easily by the PCIe 3 slot.
Couldn’t find any wd red or kingston datacenter ssd’s with PCIe 5 so one star off.
Great for NAS cache.
works fine on my TS-673A
Raid 0 cache storage (read only)
Montados en el NAS en Raid 1 para docker y mquinas virtuales. De momento, va segn lo esperado. Sin problemas y muy rpido.
Uno dei migliori NVME per NAS in termini di prezzo-prestazioni-affidabili
This drive is really great. I haven’t tried to benchmark the speeds, because I’m just using it in a USB enclosure; so I will never be able to see those speeds anyway. Professionally, I use a lot of virtual machines to perform my work; this drive has a ton of space which is perfect for what I’m doing and is large enough to hold all of my documents, manuals, and basically everything else I could ever need for work. Being inside a little USB enclosure, it fits into my bag easily. I expect it to be a strong performer for years to come.
WD has been reliable. The SSD Red meets my needs and so far so good. Use it for Time machine backups so it is used with some frequency. It runs on the warm side so plan accordingly regarding your enclosure, thermal pads, etc.
