Well that’s cheating. Easy to brag about internet speeds when you live inside of a data center lol.
That reminds me of an article from a few years back of this old woman in I wanna say Switzerland as well that at the time had the “fastest internet in the world”. She said she used it to look up gardening tips lol.
I’d guess she was from Norway, they have a way bigger fibre network than us and since longer time. Here you don’t have fibre if you are too far from a bigger city, yet. But at least we get about 1Gbit from our copper.
This is why I love the md array in Unraid. If I was to lose 1 data drive and 2 parity drives at once (unlikely), I’d still only lose the data on the single failed data drive, not the entire array as the data isn’t striped across all drives.
Yes it’s a bit slower but it’s my media server so still plenty fast for that.
I’ve owned several hundreds of drives. No manufacturer is immune. It’s more about the drive model than anything. Enterprise disks are better. Each manufacturer has made crappy drives. Go for the nicer model of whomever you like, beat it to death in its first month. If it survives infant mortality it will last a long time.
We still have a Western Digital Caviar Black in our house that’s still rocking and currently on 44k+ power on hours. We were expecting it to die a couple years ago but it didn’t yet. Using it since 2009. This is the best one I’ve seen.
Damn sounds like the rebuild will be a nail biter! Hope it goes well, good luck and god speed. Toss in a couple hail Satan’s too, you’ll need all the help you can get
You mean I could lose even more data when it inevitably craps out?
(don’t mind me, I’m dealing with a failed RAID5 array with one disk dead and one dying, I need to vent)
This is why we use RAID6 and not RAID5
I use 5 at home, after all it’s for things I could just ‘acquire’ again if needed.
I mean if it’s things you can go get again why not party hard and just use RAID0?
Im just kidding that’s such a pain in the ass if anything breaks.
Aka “my RAID are the other seeders🥸”
It’s not recklessness it’s decentralized community based redundancy.
I paid for gigabit I’m gonna use the whole gigabit lol
😎2.5Gbit🇨🇭
😎10Gbit🇯🇵
🤯

I hope she had a dope garden.

For real, the only hard drives I’ve ever had fail on me were Seagates.

Hope you kept a good backup
nah my dude, we didn’t (:
I inherited my predecessor’s fuck-ups that are slowly revealing themselves

Didn’t yeah hear, hail Hitler’s back in vogue
