Hello

I have arriving a USB3 Bus powered (raid optional) dual 2.5inch hard drive caddy arriving.

(I have the option to see the two drives as one, two drives independently or do a drive clone raid).

However I am torn between placing two SSD's or two NAS Hard drives in it.

Do we actually know if the SSD's are as reliable as NAS hard drives?

Still in 2.5inch options, the conventional Hard drives are not much bigger (1TB tax) then SSD's although cheaper. ( I do have Network backup option in place) but this is for expansion of my workstation laptop so wanted a drive for music and work files.

Any thoughts on SSD vs NAS Hard drive reliability ?
 
Surely the real deciding factor is whether you need SSD performance or not? I'd trust HDDs over SSDs as far as reliability is concerned.
