Don’t know yet. I have a hhd that I had in my first rig from 2010 and is still spinning away perfectly. I am thinking about a new build using M.2 NVMe SSD drives. |

Have switched everything over to M.2 NVMe or at least SATA SSDs for their main drives. I do still use 6TB HDD for my large RAID array. Now I just need afordable 10TB+ SSD to exist and I will be all set. Since the 7.5TB enterprise NVMe SSD are $1,500+ I am scared to look at the cost of the 15TB drives.
