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.
Earth is our home.
Look at Mr. Svalbard Global Seed Storage over here.
I would love to host my files physically!
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
huh. I could use 16TB of storage… maybe I should get into this ‘homelab’ thing
Famous last words
See you, space cowboy!
Only 16? Rookie numbers.
Teach him how to beegfs and he will never run out of storage space again.
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
Self hosted Private cloud is even easier.
I think most of the old laptops I’ve collected are sata.
this is literally me my HDD is 16tb
