Re: Any data hoarders on here? I did buy Rakim's book on Audible because it wasn't on CD. Have a feeling that's not going to play now. 50 Cent's new book, which is really good BTW, anyone could learn something from it, I bought on CD. $26 and that shit comes on 7 d

Re: Any data hoarders on here? Thanks for the info guys.I agree with the streaming subscriptions for what it's worth. I had the whole audiobook vanishing from my library thing, and Amazon were a pain in the arse to deal with.I know I should care more about this stuff, but I just don&#

Re: Any data hoarders on here? @21 do you have any strategies for using Synology's DSM interface? I have a minature version of your setup with a DS918+ with 4 x 4tb IronWolf drives in SHR 2 (raid 6) for 2-drive redundancy so that leaves me with 8TB of useable capacity.I find it extr

Re: Any data hoarders on here? @Hijacker, ah ok.@chrisnorman7 to add on to what I've already said, the subscription services aren't my kind of thing, not only does audible books have drm, which you can remove with software, meaning you can't play your book on most every da

Re: Any data hoarders on here? OK, so i'm currently running a Synology DS918+ with all 4 slots filled with 8 TB drives + a DX517 with another 2 8 TB drives (yet) in a RAID 5, making a total of 6 x 8 TB - 8 TB = 40 TB of space and 1 drive redundancy.As you can probably imagine, backing

Re: Any data hoarders on here?

Re: Any data hoarders on here? Yeah, for all intents and purposes, I'm not using a Raid array for backup, I'm using it for archival purposes. So it shouldn't be an issue. Even if it is attached to hte network, I only need one drive to back it up, say once a month, and

Re: Any data hoarders on here?

Re: Any data hoarders on here? Here are my thoughts:1. Any hard drive, of any brand, any model, any production line, can and will eventually fail unless you stop using it first. Any drive, again of any brand, model, etc. can fail with absolutely no warning, taking all your data with it. I

Re: Any data hoarders on here?

Re: Any data hoarders on here? You need a RAID array so there's parody if one of the drives fail. Also I would highly not recommend Seagate, as they fail often and when they do, it's usually in a catastrophic way. Some data recovery experts refuse to work on them, and I saw a

Any data hoarders on here? So as of now I store all my data on one Seagate backup plus 4 tb hub, since late 2017. Probably horrible to most of you techies here, and I understand why, if that drive goes belly up, bye bye all my data.I've been thinking about trying to archive Yo
