Hey folks, I’m at my wits end. I’ve been screwing with proxmox for years now, but I’m at a tipping point. I’ve just used consumer SSDs in it to run my VMs off of - but I just realized after a dozen or so crashes over the last week that I think the SSDs are the culprit. (Really, really terrible write speeds leading to kernel crashes I believe).

I’ve never gotten an enterprise SSD, if that’s even what I need. Any recommendations? New? Used? Brands?

Appreciate it

    Endurance rating in TBW or PBW is the main indicator I look for. That and a DRAM cache.

    Samsung SM863 enterprise SSDs can be found cheap on ebay, and they’re rated for quite a lot.
