@Fireduck no, you need the next gen intel ruler format ssd

@Fireduck https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/memory-storage/solid-state-drives/data-center-ssds/dc-p4500-series/dc-p4500-8tb-ruler-3d1.html
essentially 'U.2' meets 'full depth rack hardware' Intel® SSD DC P4500 Series 8TB specifications, benchmarks, features, Intel® technology, reviews, pricing, and where to buy.

I don't even know what ruler format is

U.2 is the enterprise M.2

as said, next gen, the yet unannounced one

Rotonen
2018-06-21 17:32:44
but you need the capacity

Rotonen
2018-06-21 17:33:18
as in what do you eventually make and host snowfields on

Rotonen
2018-06-21 17:33:46
though, to be fair, something like 32TB storage for mining is a bit brutal as well

currently, I collect a bunch of 2TB sata SSD drives

Fireduck
2018-06-21 17:34:27
with those a simple JBOD should do for now

Rotonen
2018-06-21 17:34:36
going for LVM, or?

stripe

Fireduck
2018-06-21 17:39:37
one partition -> lvm physical device -> add to volume group -> extend volume -> ~JBOD, irrespective of individual device side

Rotonen
2018-06-21 17:40:13
otherwise if you mix sizes over time the smallest one will decide the end volume size

Rotonen
2018-06-21 17:41:03
also you essentially lose all data when one fails in both cases so rather maximize for the space? striping will also be performance limited by the lowest one, but at least a JBOD can out-do that in bursts and thus also over time in average

Rotonen
2018-06-21 17:41:25
a raid 0 is essentially only relevant if you want consistent write speeds and have uniform hardware
