damn, I was thinking on that these days: a way to create a little NAS solution based on Raspberry Pi , but with some SSD/HDD disks attached, not just the SD card XD (however I find the SD cards quite reliable so far in my phone, I would need to try a Raspberry for myself )

Your phone should use the SD card as a WORM drive, which shouldn't cause too much wear. The Pi can't do that if it's the only storage medium present. Still, back up your stuff, just because it's there now doesn't mean it can't be gone in an instant, flash storage usually does in an instant without warning

I've got an RPi with an attached USB 3 SSD, and it works like a charm. Came back without problems after power outage.

Is no NAS though, it runs MySQL and Apache2 with a mediawiki system instead.

I had an Odroid running a NAS (WD RED drive) configured to do everything in memory instead of writing to the SD card and it still died after a few months.

Well, the MySQL access is 99% read, so the wear and tear is not really an issue. It normally runs out of cache, anyway.

What did your setup die off? Odroid hardware? Drive hardware? Or did you get some kind of filesystem issues/corruption?

[-] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The Odroid hardware failed and I never got it working again. The drive itself should be fine.
