Be careful running Proxmox with Samsung SSDs

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/05/22

In 2016, Proxmox within 6 months caused so many media errors on a Samsung MZ-7KE2T0BW 850PRO SSD 2TB that I had to RMA it. A year before that, a friend has similar issues with Samsung SSDs as well.

Other Samsung products seem to suffer with Proxmox when NCQ is enabled [Wayback/Archive] 201693 – Samsung 860 EVO NCQ Issue with AMD SATA Controller.

Reminded because of [Wayback/Archive] corbosman on Twitter: “@jpluimers That might be because of excessive logging. But sure, it’s relatively old but still relevant if you own this specific combination of hardware. For me the workaround was not turned on automatically.”.
