Help - SSD impending doom
The Crucial MX is at least "better" than the absolute-shite BX model, but it's still a desktop-rated drive and not suitable for 24/7 hypervisor use. The 500GB drive only has ~180TBW rating. If you want something that will actually last, go with a used Enterprise SSD off ebay or a "pro" rated 1TB dri

Just wanna say I don't have any problems with my all AMD PC, no crashes, no timeouts, no stutters
I’m using AMD Ryzen 7 7700 with Sapphire Pulse 9070 since March '25 and my only real issue was dead SSD (Lexar NM790 2TB) after 3 months. No other problems 🙂

Apex support a 8tb hardrive?
Officially they'll say no, single sided only. However, the wifi chip is dead center of the ssd, so a 8tb double sided with the chips on the edge works. I have a lexar nm790 8tb in my apex and have zero issues with temps or stability.

Im about to build a pc, is this good/conpatible?
That LEXAR M.2 SSD is Suspect to me. The SSD controller is the MAP1602A Falcon Lite from MaxioTech, a DRAM cache is not available. Lexar has installed 232-layer TLC NAND flash on the NM790, the flash chips are made by YMTC. Please note that this SSD is sold in multiple variants with different NAND f

Beelink ME Mini NAS: Alternatives to Lexar NM790?
I have both the lexar nm790 and hiksemi future, I find the hiksemi future more stable. During testing whenever there is an ssd crap out it is always a lexar that goes first

Build request in Canada
What matters the most are the TBW / MTBF. The ssd is the SN5100 QLC / TLC is a general recommendation, TLC usually lasts longer with a bigger SLC cache, hence why people recommends it. The choice of QLC here is key, cheaper with 50% more performances than any TLC you can find at this price. Even if

Avaliem meu primeiro pc
não acho que a 4060ti faça sentido, você pega 5060 e 9060xt 8gb mais baratas que ela e tem no mínimo a mesma potência (as da nvidia tem as tecnologias deles a mais que a AMD então se você quer ter essas coisas eu diria pra ir de 5060) essa MSI BNL é uma bomba, vai na BN que é decente ou na NZXT C650

Proxmox ZFS IO pressure stall and consumer SSD
BX series is hot garbage for server usage. Your only realistic option is to replace them if you want decent performance. Personally I go with used enterprise SSD from ebay, but for homelab nvme I can recommend Lexar NM790

Montando meu primeiro PC
Sinceramente? Eu manteria essa build em DDR4 sem peso na consciência. O pessoal criou uma ideia de que “DDR5 ou nada”, mas no mundo real a diferença prática em jogos entre um Ryzen 7 5700X com 32 GB DDR4 bem configurados e uma build AM5 de entrada com 16 GB single channel muitas vezes não justifica

DXP2800 Home server
I recommend any drive that uses TLC (not QLC), has a 5 year warranty and a half decent SCL or DRAM cache. The lower the cell density, the better the performance, reliability and longevity. Hence TLC (tri-level) will greatly outperform QLC (quad-level) but will cost more. Most cheap drives are going
