A 1Gb Ethernet connection maxes out at ~125MB\/s, while a 2.5GbE connection reaches ~312MB\/s. KingSpec's SATA SSDs deliver 580MB\/s read and 570MB\/s — well above what the network can sustain. An NVMe SSD at 3,000MB\/s would be completely wasted in the same setup. Fast NAS storage is almost always bottlenecked by the network, not the drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow many SSD TBW do I need for a NAS?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"lf-faq-answer\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"lf-muted\"\u003eFor a typical home NAS with moderate file sharing and media streaming, a drive with 120–480TB TBW (512GB to 2TB on the KingSpec P3 series) will last many years. For a NAS under heavier write load — multiple users, frequent video editing, VM storage — aim for 960TB TBW or higher (4TB–8TB P3). The 8TB P3 is rated at 1920TB TBW, which would take decades of heavy NAS use to exhaust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill an SSD in my NAS make it faster over the network?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"lf-faq-answer\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"lf-muted\"\u003eYes — but the improvement is most noticeable in two areas: \u003cstrong style=\"color: #fff;\"\u003eNAS response time\u003c\/strong\u003e (browsing files, opening folders, accessing shared databases feels near-instant) and \u003cstrong style=\"color: #fff;\"\u003esmall-file performance\u003c\/strong\u003e (where HDDs suffer most due to seek time).
