For those that are running Windows 10/11 Pro, you can use Windows Storage Spaces. It's similar to RAID in concept. I've had four SSDs running as a single array/drive letter to make storing lots of data, games, etc. much easier. You can even expand the array or dynamically remove drives if you have enough empty space (a good option for upgrading if, for example, you only have 4 SATA ports, and you want to upgrade one of the drives to a larger size). I used that feature to replace a 500GB SSD with a 2TB one (I started with 4x 500GB SSDs, but now have 1x 1TB SSD and 3 x 500GB SSDs).

The drawbacks: A failure in a single drive will cause the loss of the entire array (actually, it'll more likely go into read-only mode, and you will be able to recover some data), but you should really only use this feature if you are properly backing up any important data (which you should be doing anyway), or it's something that's easily replaceable (like downloadable games, media, etc.; usually user data and saved games are stored on your OS drive regardless of game location, which you should also back up). You can, of course, choose to implement mirroring or assign parity drives, but those features are more for high-availability, and they offset the value by reducing the usable space. This approach has server me well because I can use a single large volume of SSD space instead of manually deciding which of 4 drives I want to store data on (and the inevitable wasted slack space on each). It has served me well for years, and through the price gouging trend SSDs (hopefully now, that's in the past).

For more information: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us.../overview. It's far harder to understand, at least in cmplex configurations, than it is to implement; but you can easily set it up in minutes using the GUI (search Start for "Storage Spaces") or PowerShell (references in the above article). I hope this helps.

Really? The $16 PNY 120GB SSDs that ran in my mining rigs 24/7 for years making me obscene amounts of money didn't seem like e waste.

Endurance is 200TBW. No DRAM cache, but it does have an SLC write cache. Not a bad price, but not really a deal either.

PNY warranty and support is terrible. You may not care for what is basically a disposable drive at this price, but just don't expect any support from them.

yes really, ymmv, most ppl need reliability, your nonsense use-case does not help most ppl. Prices are falling fast and there are better options available.

One of the reviews says: "It has neither DRAM cache, nor SLC cache. It got a whooping 32MB of SRAM in the controller though"

This is the best in this price range. Better than the Kingston A400 and Crucial BX500. It is not as good as the Samsung Evo or Crucial MX500, but those are $40.

Best deal right now imo is the $52 1tb MX500. But in the $20 range, this Pny is good.

Ewaste is electricity, unless you ran them with solar panels. Thanks for the CO2.
