Mini Lab Storage Options
Mini Lab Storage Options
I'm moving my lab from larger optiplexs to micro computers (Wyse 5070 and m92p).
I'm trying to figure out the best cheap and easy storage. My first though was to use USB flash drives as VM storage. Add it to Promox as ZFS my mirror storage so I can just swap them out if they fail.
I don't need them to be super fast as the work road will be low.
I'm not sure if this is the cheapest most compact way to do storage or if there are better options

You'll wreck the NAND on your normal flash drive and they'll be dead in weeks. Even with "low load". If you've some room inside the nodes, I'd say add a second internal disk. If it has to be external, then a 2.5" to USB adaptor with a cheap SSD in it would be my recommendation.
