       In October 2020 I installed two Samsung SSDs as cache devices in my NAS box (Synology DS918+).In the past 2 weeks, *both* of them failed. I suspect it’s because I have my security cameras writing to the NAS storage, and this crept my writes up to their 100% lifespan. No data loss because they’re cache devices only; my real data is on spinning disk.I’m actually impressed that they failed at just about the same time. A good reminder to replace failing spinning disks immediately.

       Follow up with the obvious request: anyone have a good recommendation on reasonably-priced NVMe storage that has a very high write lifespan? 500GB-1TB probably. Averaging $50/year (for the pair) isn’t the end of the world, but replacing them is a hassle.Bonus Internet points if it’s on this list: https://www.synology.com/en-us/compatibility?search_by=drives&model=DS918%2B&category=m2_ssd_internal
