minus-squarePetteriPano@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·3 days agoDamn. 2/8 drives in my array have died. I was going to replace them, but at this price point I might just delete some porn instead. Or buy cloud storage.

minus-squareRedditRefugee69@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·2 days agoI’m loving the block feature on Lemmy. If you realize someone’s just doing low effort spam, you don’t have to read their comments any more! I hated that part of Reddit.
minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 days agoIKR! last I checked I had over 300 users on my block list. super helpful for ignoring trolls.
minus-squareRamRabbit@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 days agoIf two are dead, you probably should get at least one of them replaced. I’m assuming you are running a RAID 6 with zero redundancy at this point.
minus-squarePetteriPano@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 days agoI’m on RAID1 on btrfs, so I just rebalance and remove the disks as they break.
minus-squareRamRabbit@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-22 days agoO, that is a real cool feature. So you just lose space then as they fail, not redundancy.
minus-squarePetteriPano@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 day agoIt sure is! In my case it’s vulnerable while I re-balance. btrfs can work with mixed-size disks and change RAID-levels on-line, too.
