Is There Any Reason To Have More Than Minimum Required Storage?

Hi,

I'm about to use the ASG for the first time on a PC I'm building just for this purpose, to become my new home router.

Having never used Astaro before I have a simple question about the storage. The minimum required storage is 20GB; I'm just curious to know if there's any advantage to having more storage than that?

The reason I ask is because I have my sights set on this sweet little SLC SSD to use as my storage. However, it only just exactly meets the required 20GB of capacity, so I'm wondering if that may lead to any issues or significant drawbacks down the road.

Just in case it's relevant, I have a NAS that I run 24/7 with quite a lot of storage, so if it's simply a matter of storing logs or something and ASG allows you to export them to another device on the network, that's no big deal to me.

Thanks in advacne for any feedback.

Thanks for the prompt reply.

Yeah I did come across how ASG doesn't support TRIM yet but I'm not that worried about it, especially if the next version of ASG is going to support it. I'd much rather have an SLC SSD in my router, even sans TRIM, than a mechanical HDD. Plus it gives me something to specifically look forward to in v9! [:D]
