Can a Samsung EVO850 SSD be used instead of the WD Red 3.5" hard drives recommended above? If not, which NAS is suitable for SSD?
I would basically consider whether an SSD in a NAS makes sense at all. A WD Red 3.5" has transfer rates of over 100 MB/sec. The access times are also limited by the NAS and the network. In addition, SSDs are still less "write-proof" than HD. Therefore, the performance gain with SSDs will be minimal and will not justify the costs. This is my opinion.
