On today’s TrueNAS Tech Talk, Chris and Kris take on some SSD truisms and myths – does old data on SSDs “go stale” and actually read slower than freshly written? It does, and they’ll tell you how to help prevent both performance and data loss on your TrueNAS SSD pool – the best part is, you’re probably already doing it! We’ll also tidy up some of the questions around TRIM, why autotrim is off by default, and where you might find some pain points. Plus, we’re looking for your insight, comments, and suggestions on how to further enhance TrueNAS to help mitigate some of the issues of the component price crisis – from the mundane to the madhouse, we want to hear your ideas – even if you want to use a USB boot device again!
