Must Read Storage Spaces Direct Blog Posts
Hi all,
Quite often the best information on new technology is actually found in blog posts and not actual documentation, and while the documentation for Storage Spaces Direct from Microsoft is great, some of the real gems are in the pre-GA blogs they put up.
So below, I hope to keep up a list of essential blog posts from both Microsoft and independent bloggers for those of you who wish to really understand what’s happening under the hood!
- Official Documentation
- Deep Dive: The Storage Pool in Storage Spaces Direct (Cosmos Darwin)
- Don’t do it: consumer-grade solid-state drives (SSD) in Storage Spaces Direct (Dan Lovinger)
- Volume resiliency and efficiency in Storage Spaces Direct (Claus Joergensen)
- Understanding SSD endurance: drive writes per day (DWPD), terabytes written (TBW), and the minimum recommended for Storage Spaces Direct (Cosmos Darwin)
