Re: internal drive shows up as removable. Removable usb stick doesn't show at all
I shut down the machine so I could open it up and see which sata port that drive was plugged into. I was wrong earlier when I said it was plugged into one of the sata ports on the motherboard. It was plugged into an addon card that's plugged into a pcie slot. I have a trayless hot swap mobile rack I use for drives I use for backups. I switched the two sata cables. The internal drive now connects to the motherboard. The hot swap rack connects to the sata addon card. I rebooted and the internal drives don't show.. Apparently anything connected to the sata ports on the motherboard is treated as an internal drive and anything conneccted to an addon cars is treated as an external drive whether it is or not.

Re: internal drive shows up as removable. Removable usb stick doesn't show at all
It's my mistake. There's one drive with two partitions on it. It and the other 3 drives are each plugged into one of the 4 sata ports on the motherboard. Thanks for your replies.

Re: Nextcloud providers
Am 03. Apr, 2024 schwätzte z via PLUG-discuss so: moin moin, I used to run my own Nextcloud instance and decided to move to a hosted solution. I've been using openitstore for several years and been pretty happy with them. https://openitstore.com/?currency=USD I get the office suite, so it includes live, multi-edit documents and spreadsheets. English seems to be second language for their staff, but we've been able to communicate just fine in tickets over the years. They also advertise Big Blue Button hosting, but I have been using BigBlueMeeting.com for that. ciao, der.hans I've been trying to set up NextCloud for private use on my personal VPS/website, but am experiencing difficulty . There are a lot of features which require special extensions or configuration, which can vary by distribution. Plus I'm using nginx instead of apache and there is much less documentation in that direction I think it would be much easier to pay a provider to host for me. Does anyone do this and do you have a recommendation on who to do business with? Perfect privacy is not my number one concern, I still want encryption, but I am much more interested in dealing with an ethical company that supports copyleft or open source projects. Affordability would also be appreciated.
