> you don’t _need_ to leave the enterprise stuff on 24/7

If you are using enterprise SSDs the you need to be aware that the JDEC standards[1] are such that the assumption for enterprise SSDs is that they are operating 24/7.

Which is why, for example, the standards specify "power off data retention" of 3 months for enterprise SSDs vs 1 year for client SSDs.

And conversely, for reliability, the standards specify "active use" 24/7 for enterprise vs 8 hours/day for client SSDs.

Like many things with ID, the choice of client vs enterprise SSDs is a 'pick two' scenario.
