Comment on Enterprise SAS SSD are just built different... two layers, and takes up all the space it can.
Bluefruit@lemmy.world 4 months agoDamn thats cool! My work doesnt let me take drives old drives. Though we dont use sas drives so that might be why.
I certainly dont mind used drives for mass storage. I was planning to do some kinda raid anyways.
I haven’t gotten any kind of nas setup yet. Trying to avoid buying too much lol but good to know other folks are using sas drives too.

Well, SAS or SATA, it doesn’t matter for companies… Except if they keep it for spare, they just don’t want to be bothered to delete all the data on them. All drives I got was erased before I got them, some people just don’t want to see them go to e-waste, others don’t care…

Fair point. My company keeps drives that get taken out of servers for office use. After that theyre recycled.
