Original Title: 50+ day uptime on a device, first time achievement for me. RPi Zero 2W, DietPi, and plugged into a UPS with USB ports. Primarily used for Tailscale due to ISP's use of CGNAT. Such a small device provides me so much utility. Please wish her many more months of uptime!

I've been using SSDs for ~16 years in multiple PCs and servers. I still remember my first one, Intel X25-M. Yesterday I got my first death; a Gigabyte 128GB M.2 NVMe I had as TrueNAS boot drive. Age almost 5 years.

Luckily I'm always overcautious so I had two of them mirrored and resilvering the boot drive in TrueNAS was as easy as resilvering a drive in normal pool.

What's interesting is that many people still use non-mirrored USB drives and justify it by saying the boot drive in TrueNAS is barely used. Which is true, of course, but nothing lasts forever.

What's troubling me is that I no longer have surplus drives on my shelf so the next death requires longer downtime. Also the drive prices have gone up since the cheapest locally available M.2 NVMe seems to be twice as expensive as 5 years ago.

Also I may have made a mistake with my Proxmox server. I have the two mirrored drives acting as both boot and VM storage. If I understood correctly the process of replacing such drives is more complicated the previously mentioned TrueNAS situation. I'm not too worried yet because my Proxmox drives are Intel D3-S4610, which I assume to be of higher quality than the cheap Gigabyte.

I'm looking for a wired, single security camera for the front of my house, and I really don't want an app or subscription, or wi-fi, just saving footage to a hard drive which I can access via my PC.

I have a wired, app, wifi one right now which is flatly refusing to format the SD cards, so I want to avoid that nonsense, if poss. If it would just save the footage to the SD I'd keep it; right now I'm having to leave my phone at home in order to record!

Amazon has 100s, but the specs I'm looking for are buried in the masses.

Any advice would be great, thanks.

**THANK YOU for all the advice, I will have a look through the available options and suggestions and go from there. I have learned a lot between posting and this closing edit. :)
