    Crucial MX300 1TB M.2 SSD in Supermicro E300-8D

    Enteprise vs consumer SSDs for home server use?

    Some forums have a beating a dead horse emoji, I don't see it here. Apologies in advance... I touched on this question in this thread, but it didn't get a lot of traction, and I think it's a worthwhile discussion on its own: for a home server, is it worth paying the premium for...

    Home server architecture thoughts?

    Does Intel RMS25LB (LSI2308) support TRIM in any mode?

    Hello! I'm wondering: does Intel RMS25LB support trim? Better in RAID but at least in pass-through mode? Can't find any info on that. Would like to use AH2000JF6GKIT and move to SSDs but without TRIM it can be tricky. Thanks!
