    Very poor storage performance in PVE ceph

    Cool. Looking through the model numbers of the pieces, this seems to be your setup: Proxmox installed on /dev/sda, which seems like an extremely low performance small SATA flash drive https://www.innodisk.com/en/products/flash-storage/satadom/satadom-sl_3ie3_v2 Sequential R/W (MB/sec, max.)...

    SSD Samsung 990 Evo Failed Status

    IMHO this type of mitigation is not of great interest for most "home" labbers (versus "DC" labbers). By "home" labbers - with quote to emphasize - I mean those that use consumer grade hardware for their lab to learn skill mainly in the software area. For me a "good portion" of them, for cost...

    What happens when a VM with passthrough devices gets shut down

    Although it probably depends on SATA CTRL model, firmware, drive firmware and VM's OS features/settings ... I did some tests on my consumer hardware node with an OpenMediaVault VM with mainboard SATA CTRL passed to it and the results are : - SATA CTRL still visible by PVE node, maybe in low...

    comm systemd-journal: Detected aborted journal - Even on a new cloned nvme

    i had this error today, too. I occurred after I replaced the motherboard on one of my two node cluster machines. really not sure what's going on. i'm fairly certain the drive is fine. I should note I do not have anywhere near this spec of hardware. Using consumer grade hardware. 13th gen intel...

    Proxmox VM file transfer slowing down suddenly!

    Thanks, My connection speed is 1 Gbps, but noted that one of my friends is using traditional HDDs for a home server, and still getting speeds around 100+MB/s, is that what you are referring to as slow or even slower because I am not quite sure about it, but the speed around 100MB/s is fair...

    Proxmox VM file transfer slowing down suddenly!

    Traditional hard drives are good for being a cheap way to store larger amounts of data, but their maximum speed on their very best day is still pretty slow. That being said, they don't have the same kind of pausing issues that QLC drives do. Instead, they're just slow for everything...

    Best file system for two nvme drives?

    No, it matters. Consumer/prosumer SSDs without a PLP won't be able to use the SSDs DRAM cache for sync writes resulting in magnitudes of less performance and higher wear when doing these. Having a UPS doesn't help for SSD performance, as the SSDs firmware doesn't know if there is a redundant PSU...

    Failing SSD - Migration strategy

    Yes, this is very frustrating. This is the new SSD drive: WD Red SA500 NAS SATA SSD 2.5”/7mm Cased https://www.westerndigital.com//en-gb/products/internal-drives/wd-red-sata-2-5-ssd?sku=WDS200T2R0A

    Failing SSD - Migration strategy

    @killer_instinct All that aside, what make and model is your new storage? That'll directly have an impact on how fast the copying goes. If it's a consumer grade SSD it'll be a lot slower than something more enterprise oriented such as the Samsung PM893 series.

    Proxmox VE 8.2.2 - High IO delay

    I am observing some very high (>40%, sometimes 80%) IO Delay on Proxmox VE 8.2.2 with pve-no-subscription Repository. Looking at some Posts over this Forum, this may be due to not using Enterprise-Grade SSD, although to be honest I don't necessarily "buy" this justification. I am using Crucial...

    New build feedback - first time homelab

    There's a 4th nvme - the little 128gb patriot. I was going to run the OS on it, but I like your idea of mirroring 2 smaller ones for the OS.

    New build feedback - first time homelab

    Your chosen board has 4 m.2 slots but you only specified 3 NVMe drives? I would probably select something other than 1TB NVMe and SSD drives. I would put the operating system on a pair of 128 or 256 gb SSDs (or NVMe drives, but Proxmox won't benefit from the OS being on an NVMe) in a mirror. I...

    SSD Configuration for Proxmox in a Home Lab - Need Advice and Feedback

    Hello everyone, I'm currently setting up a Proxmox server for personal use at home, primarily for testing and experimenting in a labHome environment. However, I have some concerns regarding the configuration of my disks, especially the SSDs. Here is my current configuration: Disks: 1 x...

    Clone a vm fast and low

    ...pseudo-SLC cache. I saw similar stuff happening when first trying out Proxmox in VMs on my local desktop. That was mostly using consumer grade SSDs, so the operations which didn't move much data were fine. But anything that was substantial in size (like copying a VM) would exhaust the SSD...

    Ceph reading and writing performance problems, fast reading and slow writing

    We had poor CEPH performance because consumer grade Samsung QVO 860 SSD drives don't have PLP, that happens to be crucial for CEPH: https://www.reddit.com/r/ceph/comments/14ccg87/comment/jolgkuh/ We moved the drives behind PERC H730 RAID card (as bunch of RAID0 virtual volumes, one per drive)...

    [SOLVED] NVME disk "Available Spare" problem.

    All Samsung Consumer "NVME" drives are pure crap. The sata versions like the 870 Evo/plus are pretty good tho. (in reliability, not iops) But other Brands can be even worse, or better in TBW but with less speed/worse latency. So thats why im using myself something like 970/980/990 Pros/Evos xD...

    Newbie Home User - How To Setup Storage

    I am a Proxmox newbie and also not an experienced Linux administrator. I just want to host a few VMs on a new machine I have set up at home for this purpose, so nothing enterprise grade, just a standard consumer desktop machine with a single NVMe drive. I installed Proxmox, accepting all the...

    Ceph Apply/Commit latency too high

    ...request. The Samsung 870 QVO is a QLC SSD with a small "TurboWrite" cache of only a few gigabytes. As soon as this is full the write performance drops to around 160MB/s. With Ceph's random IO pattern this cache is full most of the time. TL;DR: do not use consumer grade SSDs for a Ceph cluster.

    What is considered unusually high disk io for an NVME SSD ?

    This is not much. Rotating rust allows up to 200 MB/s (or more) nowadays. NVMe can write data with a speed of a few Gigabytes per second. This really, really depends on the specific hardware - and "consumer grade" vs. "enterprise class" makes a huge difference. Look at the SMART data: web gui -...
