Don't forget about file integrity of your backups, it why people love zfs, every sector has a checksum and you can schedule "scrub" jobs that will detect silent data corruption. You don't want to manually search through thousands of pictures to find the corrupt ones.

You could get 4GB/s with a WD Black AN1500. You can also boot nvme on any chipset using a boot loader.

I just setup my zfs pool with optane for special metadata and slog. I’m not feeling a difference loading a directory of linux isos so far and I have much more complex setup now.

I have an adata drive that doesn’t work with pcie passthough. So cheap drives are bad at server stuff.

The optanes are pretty nice too but the 750 is still my fav. I have no need of buying any ssds I just like to reminisce about it lol

At my old job they were the first ssds we had in production, over 5+ years I saw dozens of other ssds go bad but the 750s were as good as new.

Optane sounds fun, but what's the appeal of wedding your system to dead-end tech?

It’s a dead end but its write endurance is basically infinite compared to normal ssds.
