Yes, depending on the bug source. But the bug source might be related to reads. Nobody knows. Splitting the risk across two different vendors / implementations seems to be good insurance.
- baruch 13y agoI mostly handle server appliances and the read-only boot disk is bread-and-butter for anything I do. Bonus points for using initramfs and never hitting the boot disk after the initial boot is completed. But if you stick to boot SSDs that are read and written to using different makes sounds like a good strategy.
