Ok but like aside from a backup of Wikipedia what are you storing that is that big
Arrrr, I won’t be sharin me plunders with the likes of ye land lubber.
I’m in the unfortunate phase of my “homelab” where I have about 300TB of storage spread amongst 3 continents. Civilization will fail before I lose all of my data.
Look at Mr. Svalbard Global Seed Storage over here.
Earth is our home.
Set a man’s storage devices on fire, and he’ll remember to 3-2-1 backup for the rest of their life
I would say that [email protected] is leaking, but I think most of the communities here tend to leak into each other anyway
Tbf, that community is one of the most active that isn’t news or memes.
huh. I could use 16TB of storage… maybe I should get into this ‘homelab’ thing
Famous last words
See you, space cowboy!
I would love to host my files physically!
Only 16? Rookie numbers.
I saw some short a out people harvesting them from old modems.
Old cable TV and satellite boxes often have hard drives, I think I used to find 500gb drives in there. But they have TONS of usage. I think I paid $1-2 for them.
Yeah, old DVR boxes were pretty fantastic when you just needed a lot of storage. They were one of the few places you could reliably find 1TB drives, back when those were still fairly new and expensive.
Ayuo, i have a great time scavenging fetch boxes from hard rubbish. Lowest sized drive in those is 1tb
Teach him how to beegfs and he will never run out of storage space again.
this is literally me my HDD is 16tb
Self hosted Private cloud is even easier.
I think most of the old laptops I’ve collected are sata.
