SATA SSDs for NAS - sieffen - 05-07-2025
Hi
I recently upgraded my NAS to a Synology DS923+ which is happily running with my migrated 2x Ironwolf HDDs (it's nice to be able to use them without DSM screaming "unverified" at me.......!) Anyway, I'm considering in future moving to use SATA SSDs instead of the HDDs to speed things along a bit but I'm not sure which drives are recommended in a NAS environment. Certainly all the discussion I've found online seems to fall into the two camps of either i) SSDs aren't up to it full stop or ii) modern SSDs are fine.
i.e. not very helpful
So my questions is can you advise what drives are the most suitable to work in a NAS?
Thanks
Si
