    SSDs are prohibitively expensive for offline, long term storage of large amounts of data. I only use SSDs for working files, and once I'm done I archive my projects onto multiple less expensive HDDs with RAID for redundancy. That then gets backed up to to the cloud. See my latest video for a full breakdown. ☺️

    Don´t worry. I use SSD´s since 2015 and even my oldest intenso 256 GB SSD has all files fully intact. I never had any file loss on any SSD or NVMe, while in the meantime one mechanical drive has bitten the dust. If the data is extremely valuable and important there is still the possibility to recover a dead mechanical drive for a few thousand dollars in some recovery center (I don´t know if this is possible with an SSD) so that is one huge plus for mechanical drives :)

      Most of the time when SSDs fail, it's due to bad electronics supporting the nand, and a repair shop can just repair the faulty component, or transplant the NAND chips on an identical board, and boom data back. People get so wrapped up in "Oh QLC SSDs can handle fewer read write cycles" yeah and that amount is still far far more than most will use it for in it's lifetime. For example, the SSD in my main system, the Crucial P3 Plus, has a rated terrabytes written of 220. In the 6 months I've been using it for video editing and as a boot drive, I've only racked up 7.7TB written. Meaning according to the rated spec, it should last 14 years... however realistically I'll need more storage long before 14 years is up, and if it fails before then, more than likely it's not the NAND, it's the controller chip or power circuitry, in which case well it can be recovered just like any old hard drive. In fact, potentially easier. Just pull off the 2 chips and slap em on a donor board. Very easy.

  • @OwaisAbbasiMrWOLF

    SSDs are not suitable for long term data storage because they store data as an electric charge and when ssd is kept for a long time without power some of charge may leak out and you may loose your data or data might get unusable. Ssd companies guarantee 1 year data retention without power.

    What he meant to say is that SSDs have a limited amount of reads and writes they can perform. After it reaches (around) that limit, the drive becomes a brick and you can't do anything with it anymore except maybe look at it and cry if you didn't have backups of your backups.

  • @iggytse
    @iggytse 8 місяців тому +1

    Long term archiving is better on HDD. If the controller breaks you can get it fixed as the data is magnetic stored on disk. If a controller on an SSD goes you will have no luck trying to get that data back.

    • @LindonSlaght
      @LindonSlaght Місяць тому

      That's not true. Data recovery labs can very easily transplant the NAND to a donor board, or replace the controller chip, whatever is needed. In fact I'd argue that in some cases, provided you have the right tools, data recovery is far easier on SSDs.

    When shopping around for mine I was shook because I didn't know the level of unreliability these have. There was not 1 single brand (even big name brands) I checked that didn't have hundreds of comments talking about how the drive died out of nowhere, stopped reading after a few months, lost data forever, etc. I know a lot of factors go into this but it's scary not knowing if you'll lose your data any day.

    Maby you're not aware that ssd drives are used in NAS units today since the price per GB has significantly droped. Also ssd's loke the seagate firecuda 530 have up to 5000 TBW. Meaning that you can write and delete 90% of the drive every single day for 5 years without voiding the warranty.

    Don't say why or anything! Your NAS isn't a long term solution either. People will disagree but my long term was burning to discs. I have data on discs I burned nearly 20 years ago and it's still perfect. I can't say the same for any flash drive, NAND or hard drive though. NAND has a limited number of read/write so I guess a relatively newish one will keep your data safe for years but they are all prone to some malfunction or other.

    SSDs are actually better for long-term storage than HDDs because HDDs are more prone to failure. SSD raids are about to become common place as the price comes down.
