@luxe Thanks Luxe for the comprehensive breakdown. All I am worried or would like to do it this was, 1 SSD to plot and X number of HDD where I move the plot files too. Yes I would have to copy over the plots to the mining HDDs. Using USB 3.0 should be fast enough to move the plot file into the HDDs. But if I am able to save some time through this, hopefully days then that would be the benefit I'm buying. After all the most precious commodity we have as humans is TIME.

I'm not worried about it dying as long as it gets the job done. The only aim of that SSD would be serve it's master(me) to achieve his ultimate goal(write plots waaay faster saving a ton of time) to it's last days.

I've read somewhere that one can use an SSD to write plots then move them to the large HDDs that one will use for mining. Doing this will allow one to write plots even x4 faster. So I'm wondering what if I bought an NVME SSD with a read/write speed of 2100mb+/s, would this be even x10 to x20 faster in writing plots?
PS:- This is inclusive of having a good/great CPU/GPU.
