SSD only?
Look at Mr Moneybags over here. That would increase my cost about 400%
And no, I wouldn't recoup that in energy cost reductions, as my oldest NAS with ancient drives only draws a few watts 97% of the time.
Sorry, I can't hear you under my enormous piles of money! 🙃
But yeah. You should do an SSD-only setup if this is within your budget. I assume that for most of us selfhosting is just some soft of hobby. If you're willing to spend money on the latest and cooles tech: do it. If not, then it's fine, too.
