Hi!,


We are in the process of buying new hardware for use with FreeBSD and ZF= S. We are planning whether to buy M2 NVME disks or just SATA SSD disks (pro= bably Samsung PM* ones). How is you experience with them?. Do you recommend= one over the another?. Is perhaps better support from some of them from a = specificic version to newer?.

My $0.02: We use DELL r740xd with NVMe and FreeBSD 13.0-STABLE (with some N= FS patches from Rick Macklem, that are
now included in releng/13) and ZFS.

NVMe disks are of Dell (type Dell Express Flash PM1725b 1.6TB SFF 1.2.2).
So far we haven=E2=80=99d experienced any issues with them, neither with th= e server as such.
The only change from the =E2=80=9Cstock=E2=80=9D state of the HW was that w= e replaced Broadcom bnxt(4) NIC with Intel ix(4) NIC.

The server provides NFS shares for OpenStack compute nodes.

My tuppenceworth:

No issues. Server is used a= s iSCSI provider for VMs (performance testing farm for databases).
