I had a single 128GB M4 SSD for a couple years before I decided to get back into gaming. When I reconfigured my build, I opted to go for adding a second 128GB M4 instead of purchasing a single, larger drive.
Well I recently purchased a Lenovo TS140 Server and now I do not have to run my gaming machine 24/7 (I was running Plex which is now moved to the TS140). In fact, it probably only sees about 12-15 hours of usage on a normal week.
Anyway, I am thinking about breaking up the 128GB drives and putting one of them into the server. The thing is whisper quiet and the loudest thing in there is an old 500GB WD Black I had lying around. I would sell the other M4 to recoup some of my costs for a single 256GB.
So I ask, what does everyone think of this plan? Any issues running Linux on an SSD 24/7? What 256GB drive should I spring for?
Thanks in advance!
