QLC for long-term storage ?
QLC for long-term storage ?
Looking for more silence and more importantly: Less vibrations and humming noises, I'm thinking about replacing my 5 HDDs (10 to 16TB) with SSDs.
Considering Samsung QVO 8TB for their capacity at an acceptable $ / TB price.
But...
I'm a bit wary of QLC.
What's your experience with long-term QLC usage ?
I'm not looking for performance (have 2 NVMEs for that), but reliable, long duration hoarding of medias. Though, there will be quite a bit of writing / overwriting.

A raid z2 setup should work well with 6 ssds. A weekly scrub will make sure no data is weak/ gets corrupted. Scrubs are only reads and should have basically no effect on the drives. The dual parity will make sure your data is safe.
