Raid doesnt even protect against bit rot either. It doesn’t matter how many disks you write to even in a raid one array you are still vulnerable. Unless you have a high end raid card that does block level checksuming your raid array will not go back and verify previously written to data is still correct. If it does have checksuming it still isn’t smart enough to know which drive is the is correct and will lock the array in the best case.
Yeah I can’t argue with the usenet fees but all three of my index sites I’ve had no issues with their free version so long as you do go wild and download ten terabytes in a night. I’ve actually had better luck with the selection compared to torrenting, pretty much is there in all of the popular resolutions. The only thing I have finding is some of the obscure adult swim shows but I can’t find them on my private trackers either.
You can kinda cheat and get the refresh rate down to 300ms with partial refresh but that’s still one hundred times slower than a 30hz conventional display.
That’s not how light/laser and prisms work. Prisms only separate out the frequencies that are contained within the light/laser. imagine the light is a sandwich and each frequency is a peice of the sandwich. If you take apart the sandwich you still have the same bread, meat and cheese just not stacked together. That’s what the prism is basically doing.
LED bulbs for refrigerators and freezers are pretty easy to design since the lower temperatures will let the LEDs run more efficiently. Oven lamps might never get LEDs because normal solder starts to melt around 350F and will soften around 200F so unless they start making the bulbs with exotic and expensive solder we will never see LEDs in the oven.
New skool is to use automation tools to grab and manage your media. You can still use torrenting but IMO using usenet is more reliable and doesn’t flag your ISP. I highly recommend anyone pirating to use 'arrs https://wiki.servarr.com/
Avarage load for me is around 300w running two T320s, a R510, and a NUC. The T320s are clustered running plex, 'arrs, pihole/unbound, game servers, and odoo. The nuc serves two purposes, firstly to keep quorum in the cluster and secondarily as a low power device to run a secondary pihole/unbound instance incase the power goes out as it’s the only server that will stay on UPS power until the battery runs out. The R510 is my storage server with around 56TB and growing.
I am planning on adding a GPU server with a few tesla P40s as I’ve been using my workstation for these tasks which makes it difficult to use it for work.
ZFS not have access to smart only works up until a drive starts acting up. Without SMART ZFS can’t accurately determine if a drive is failing and lock the pool in order to prevent further data loss.
The best way to do this is to run a truenas VM within proxmox and passthrough your HBA into the truenas VM. That will give truenas full control over any drive connected to that HBA. The performance overhead isn’t that much so don’t worry about it.
As well as BTRFS and ReFS
