I like the idea of NVMes for online storage and louder nearline
storage. There used to be enterprise systems that would groom your
data, moving infrequently accessed data to slower drives, and
ultimately to WORM drives for archival access.
I have 5 2tb drives, and the drive head seeking sounds are driving me
crazy. I should try to justify replacing them with SSD for... (checks IT
excuse list) Increased MTBF, lower thermal footprint and decreased
power consumption.
