In mid-2024, I bought a bunch of WD/HGST 12TB refurb HDDs for $75 each. They came from GoHardDrive and had a 5-year warranty. I even used the warranty on a drive that died a couple months later. All good.

I see now that GHD is now entirely "sold out" of these drives. However, they have plenty […]

Sad and funny at the same time. Dude needed hard-disks in UK so he flies to New York to buy drives and fly back because it's so much cheaper in US vs UK. #Reddit #datahoarder

I hope squidge is gonna be ready for the unholy #Hetalia wrath I'm unleashing. I just went and renamed all the source files so they're consistent and it makes my eyes so happy.

I managed to reduce my 60 TB Data hoard to 18 TB by trimming unused archived raw footage and re-encoding to prores. The copying to external HDDS is amost done, all that's left now is WIPE the NAS, change it from RAIDZ1 to RAIDZ2 and copy it all back to the NAS. Almost done! #Datahoarder #Homelab

Can I Find Any Data In This "For Parts" Zune Lot?

Got some Zunes for parts and repair, but what if I looked through the data on them like I'm opening packs of Pokemon cards?

Tak som práve na svojej NASke so 4x12TB diskami spustil scrubbing a som fakt zvedavý, ako dlho to bude trvať (a tak nejak dúfam, že sa to stihne do Silvestra, kedy je naplánovaný extended S.M.A.R.T. test).

Is it bad to have a slightly older drive in a RAID 5 array? submitted by HiddenLayer555 to datahoarder 7 points | 2 comments I currently have a single Seagate Ironwolf Pro hard drive which I’ve been running in my NAS for about two years. I kind of want to buy two more drives of the same make and capacity and make it a software RAID 5 array. Is that a good idea? Do raid arrays need to have drives of the same age?

You know— with the way the Tromp Regime works—shoving things they don’t like down the ‘memeryhole’ —I decided to record the yt video for posterity and post it here. #Datahoarder

This video perfectly represents what the anti-tariff ad was saying:

Tariff wars are bad for the world.

I've run my own mail server for decades, and due to a mix of unfortunate circumstances, bad choices and no backups, I have now lost those decades of email. Of course it's annoying to have lost recent mails, mostly because I run a business and need things like invoices and shit for my accounting […]

Receipt for the $79.95 GoHardDrive 12 terabyte Ultrastar I bought in July of 2024

GoHardDrive 12 terabyte Ultrastars going for $148.88 today.

It'd be cool if AI resulted in a massive glut of refurb HDDs hitting the market soon.

Because, boy-howdy, did the price of those used datacenter HDDs from ServerPartDeals & GoHardDrive double in the last 18 months.

[Satire] Physical Media Collector Pumped For Downfall Of Humanity submitted by eskuero to datahoarder 47 points | 7 comments https://theonion.com/physical-media-collector-pumped-for-downfall-of-humanity/ MESA, AZ—Gleefully describing the inevitable day when society would collapse and digital files would become unusable, local physical media collector David Campbell confirmed Wednesday he was “absolutely pumped” for the downfall of humanity. “When it all goes down, there’s only going to be one place to watch the Tomb Raider movies in their entirety with all the deleted scenes, and that’s going to be my bunker,” said Campbell, his eyes reportedly shining as he described how the end of organized society and the dissolution of government would make his cherished stockpile of Blu-rays even more valuable. “No one will be mocking the CDs I’m still holding onto when the internet goes dark forever and the only way to listen to music is through boom boxes we trade canned goods for. And I’m definitely one of the only people who has a region-free DVD player and all three seasons of Father Ted plus the Christmas special, so I’ll essentially be a king. I can’t wait.” At press time, Campbell was grinning as he purchased the 50th anniversary edition of Jaws in 4k, which he anticipated would give him full control over the drinking water supply in the event of a nuclear winter situation.

Are you backing up your data properly? At Instrumental Media, files are safely stored in FOUR places: on the editing computer's M.2 drive, on an UnRAID NAS protected by parity, in Google Drive, and in Backblaze cloud storage. Redundancy is essential.
