    • Early days, but so far, so good.
Capacity: 4TB Pattern Name: SSD
I'm using a number of WD Red SA500 4TB NAS drives in a ZFS pool consisting of 6 mirrored vdevs. Overall pool performance is great, though average single disk write speed observed during two resilvering operations is only around 200 MB/s. (I've never seen it go above 380 MB/s.) It's not clear to me whether that's the sustained write speed of this drive or if there's a bottleneck (or deliberate throttling) elsewhere. As mentioned in the headline, it's still early days - the pool has only been in operation for a few months. Within the last few days ZFS started showing checksum errors for one of the Samsung EVO 860s that are also in the pool. I replaced it with an SA500. I'll try to remember to update this review over time to note how the SA500s are faring. Update - 2020-09-17: I now have eight of these SSDs. No problems so far. Update - 2021-12-13: In May, 2021, my ZFS pool with eight of these drives (plus eight Samsung drives) faulted one of the SA500 SSDs due to write errors. I replaced it with another SA500. Earlier, back in July of 2020, one of the Samsung drives failed too; I replaced it with a SA500 (as it was cheaper at the time). So far, in that pool, I've had two drive failures; one 4TB Samsung 860 EVO and one 4TB WD SA500. I'm still running the pool with eight Samsung drives and eight WD drives, with no real preference aside from whichever is least expensive when I need a new one. ... show more

    • Six 2TB Drives ZFS Pool and LSI HBA Issues
Capacity: 2TB Pattern Name: SSD
Please be aware that the Western Digital SA500 Red SSD is one of the very few non Enterprise SSDs that supports DRAT and HZAT that will allow trim to work properly behind a LSI SAS HBA. Search for ID: 1211161496937 or "TRIM support for LSI HBAs and RAID controllers" in the Broadcom knowledge base. Purchased six 2TB 2.5" drives and put them in a ZFS RAIDZ2 pool in a Supermicro chassis that supports 36 SAS/SATA drives behind a LSI 9300-8i SAS HBA controller. System was running Devuan (Debian) with kernel 4.9. Experienced issues with the drives being kicked out on a nightly basis. Upgraded the LSI 9300-8i controller to the latest BIOS and firmware. Drives where a lot more stable but they would still occasionally be kicked out once a week. Upgraded Devuan to the latest version which runs kernel 4.19 and still experienced the same issues. Only by running the back ported 5.4 kernel did problems go away and system has been stable for the last month. Performance is excellent and what you would expect a six drive RAIDZ2 (RAID6) with 32GB of ARC.. Overall I'm happy, but it was a trying time getting to this point. Western Digital support was fairly poor. Essentially they said to contact the controller vendor to see if they can fix the problem. Broadcom (they bought LSI) was helpful but they did not provide the solution to the problem. ... show more
