I heard the calming effect of Ganon imagery saved Xmas last year.

Ok so reading between the lines I'm meant to try digg.com again?

I opened Lemmy and this was my top post in home, I came back 6hrs later and it was still the top post. I'm not mad.

Ubiquiti is good. You just have to learn how it works. But that's like any software defined network. There are times when they will give you a little too much control expecting you know the consequences of your actions and you send the wrong config and lock yourself out. They do make mistakes in their firmware but nowhere near as much as inexperienced techs make a mistake and blame the equipment.

Both dog and it's tail are stationary, space time moves around it.

I only just noticed people calling her Joanne because she identifies as JK. Nice one.

You're telling me other Tumblr users are on here?

High Availability not Home Assistant.

I cheat on Lemmy with Tumblr but Reddit is the ex I shook.

Just one tech's opinion but I've worked in storage for almost 20years. WD Ultrastar (formerly Hitachi) has the most consistent reliability historically. The current series of WD Gold's are Ultrastar's with a different sticker and often cheaper than the Ultrastar stickered version.

They are a little more expensive than their competition but worth it.

2nd Exos, 3rd everything else.

I can't remember the last time I had one of my Ultrastar arrays having a failure. If my clients need to choose a cheaper drive on price I have tried Ironwolfs and have replaced a bunch of 10tb Ironwolfs a few 12's.

In the consumer space the Backblaze drive failure releases are good to pay attention to.

Performance wise all SoHo CMR drives are pretty similar in the 7200rpm models.

Hosted MSP360 is set and forget. Wasabi is great but for archive iDrive s3 is noticably cheaper.

If you want data sovereignty a Synology NAS running Active Backup for M365 is really good for a free/included app.
