Hi,
I think something associated with the ipv6 disussion and ISPs.
Although they might give you ipv6 addresses, their dsl router probably
provides no firewalling for it.
I added my own firewall for ipv6.

Hi,
I received the classic post office scam sms message.
I forwarded it to 7726, and to be fair, the web site was taken down
fairly quickly.

Hi,
I forgot another obvious question.
Which filesystem are you using on the old 8TB disk?
For example, if it is btrfs, you don't have to copy anything about.
btrfs does its own raid 0.
You can just add more disks as you need them and btrfs just uses them.
Kind Regards
