title: More server downtime & new SSDs
---

socialnerds,

For quite some time now i run a number of services from home. Namely our [GitLab instance](https://socialg.it) and an Ubuntu machine for various gameservers. Today this got a lot more awesome! I got new SSDs for the NAS storage i run those virtual machines of. Three times [Crucial MX500 1TB](https://geizhals.at/crucial-mx500-1tb-ct1000mx500ssd1-a1745357.html) in a [RAID5](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_RAID_levels#RAID_5) array solely for my virtualization host. You can expect a lot better performance!

Though for this reason we experienced a substantial downtime today. I hope it wasn't too bad. Cheers!
