That is a really nice small form factor case. I was recently looking at Fractal's Define 7 XL because it can hold an amazing 18 3.5" + SSDs.
Welcome. I personally found it necessary because YouTube's algo kept giving mostly QOP nazi propaganda starting back in 2016.
Wow, that didn't used to be that way. I guess things have changed over the years.
Because of their contractor status they may not have any grounds to do so. Looks real shitty though for sure.
Its better we stop depending on the single points of failure anyway. The psychopaths will always do whatever they want in the name of the shareholder - even when its not true.
Especially with Jerboa already in place, its IMO a good switch.
The one thing that worries me is all that useful info trapped on Reddit, if Lemmy data expires then that has a long term cost/loss which is sad.
Something like 12 years I used Reddit, but they really nailed the coffin lid shut now.
Indeed, Reddit half died for me when they did the redesign, and I only used RiF after that, now its just dead to me.
EK gaming rig from when it was impossible to buy any 30xx except in prebuilts...
Time is merely a perspective. I've been doing this for 20 years.
Perhaps it is overblown, but one of the reasons I have 8 drives is because I wanted to run raidz2 for the extra redundancy. I've had multiple drives die before and so as disk sizes have gone up more redundancy has been important (at least I thought so).
So when my first ZFS NAS (4 disks) developed hardware failure, I decided to get more serious about it. Hence larger rack device with a proper Xeon with ECC memory and an HBA for 8 disks + 2 SSDs and the old drives that survived as a play space. I've also used this server now for 9 years.
