I’m running 160tb of refurbished Exos right now.

I throughout the years

2 x 10tb

2 x 14tb

3 x 16tb

12 x 18tb

8 x 20tb

I’ve only had 2 x 16tb fail within 500 hours. All other disks have 7k+ hours and are running fine.

As long as you manage your backups properly, you won’t need to worry.

Bought mine through server part deals. Their 2 year warranty is so painless. Shoot them the SN and smart data and you just swap disks.

If they don’t have the disk they just refund you completely.

Works fine for me. Firefox, Android, and within the EU.

Isn’t SCMP not super reliable?

It’s owned by Alibaba.

Or am I being overly critical?

I have only a few services. I could probably downscale my server.

• AdGuard DNS

• Tailscale and Zerotier

• Open Media Vault

• Jellyfin

• Uptime Kuma

• Graphana / Prometheus

• Torrent/seed box

All on Proxmox and mirrored ZFS 2 x 20TB

For backups I use FolderSync and the default backup for windows. Super lazy, but I don’t want to be the IT support of the family.

You can try out Headscale. The self hosted/open source version of it.

I use enterprise drives because they’re cheaper and more reliable.

Got some 4TB enterprise NVMe for 150 each. They only had 3TB written, basically brand new.

You can try DoH to see if it is working.

It’s port 443 so it won’t get redirected by their filters.

Android uses DoT so maybe that works. Assuming that they don’t block port 853.

Try the encrypted DNS option to see if they are blocking all DNS providers or just certain ones.

You can also setup your own encrypted DNS on a VPS if you’re feeling brave.

I’ve done that a few times. It tells me on the monitor to plug in the PCIE auxiliary power.

Never had any damage whatsoever.

Some enterprise grade stuff still use BIOS. But I haven’t messed with one for over 6 years

Fuck clickbait ads

From that point on, I made sure to never lock up my electric scooter outside in New York City — choosing instead to carry it around with me indoors. My replacement e-scooter ended up being the **bullshit ad**, which I still use today because it perfectly blends speed and portability. It’s one of the lightest electric scooters around at 29 pounds, with a range and top speed of 25 mph and 22 miles respectively.

I love this copy pasta

Nah, their software is so infuriating to work with. Even when an SSD it falls to load video clips. Often I have to restart unifi protect on the console or even ssh into it to do and apt update/upgrade to get it working again.

Self hosted might be a little better, but I’m not holding my breath.

YubiKey

Adguard is a little more refined imho.

Ran pinhole for ages and used scripts to update it.

Adguard, everything is built into the UI. Although custom rules for certain clients are a little hard in Adguard.

Now I have a dual system.

Adguard is a secondary and DoH as my primary. That way I have DNS services regardless of if the internet is up or down.

Should I poop now or wait until after my set?

Is that a fart?

I always try to buy more enterprise hardware such as SSDs and HDDs.

They’re usually cheaper used because of their lifecycle.

I just bought 2 x 3.83TB nvme drives for $160 a pop.

They have 5.4PB of endurance and I received them with only 60TB written.

Same goes for hard drives. I have some Seagate exos that is just about $10/TB.

They have a MTBF of 2.5 million hours.

No. YouTube ads are servered under the same DNS record.

Backblaze

I also have my 160tb home server for anything not vital.

All of my printers are on a VLAN with a dead gateway.

LAN access only. And if it doesn’t work from day one on that dead VLAN, then I return it.
