because discussing such projects in self hosting is fun and why we are here. I wanted to hear what others thought. Ie we are in a forum.

What sort of media?

https://serverpartdeals.com/ Is frequently recommended as reliable and with a good warranty. When I first started I got my from a local electronics recycler with only a 30 day warranty. I was only caring about price. Now I’m just using bigger used ones. My only warranty is them being cheap to free and backing up data multiple places.

I agree it’s a bigger step. I currently only have one at my office and it took me forever to get around to setting it up.

I mean just plug them in to your computer or server then move your data. If it was me I would rsync-avz source destination the data :)

An Optiplex only has one maybe two bays. But the low power and cost are worth it!

I think it really doesn’t matter what hardware you have as long as it won’t randomly break.

Maybe I’ll give my specific example. I have a QNAP 1u server that was given to me so I decided to use it as a cold backup. I turn it on once a week and then ssh into my main servers and rsync important data into their respective locations on the QNAP.

If I was making a new system I would make a fedora server 41 usb, install that to a new system using the gui, restart it and ssh in to setup my folder structure, then rsync ally stuff there and be done :) Would probably take less than 30-60 minutes to setup

I originally got my used drives from an electronic recycling company. They were selling them around 3-5$ per TB.

Then I got a ton of my sysadmin family member.

That’s about what I pay too :)

Seems you got more out of the horrible link than me :) It is bad.

Having been to many a Chinese Internet cafe 网吧 in China and Japan, they have all run windows. I think steam keeps getting blocked or something by the gov as well. You’re right that piracy is very commonplace in China too. I bet it’s a decrease on steam use not windows.

Still, what a weird way to say less Chinese users. Also simplified Chinese is a written language, why don’t they just say mainland Chinese?

True

I pushed against one comment and agreed with the other one or two. What’re you talking about? You *can read more than just the top few comments and my reply.

Glad you didn’t take my comment as an attack, as many users here are too quick to get upset.

Is it just men or do all of us have mental issues, too materialistic, no home, no good job, no future? I think life is hard and it’s hard take chances to connect.

If men don’t have a good father, who is their role model?

I very much think so
