Thanks Liam,
They are in aluminium enclosures, which are hot to the touch, so I guess
they are pretty effective heat sinks in themselves. I did think about
making a small enclosure to hold both HDDs with a fan at one end, but
I'm not sure which is best:
- Individual aluminium enclosures, good hea
Well I worked thru all the 'fixes' that fsck threw up, saying yes to
all... I performed another rsync and no errors!
I have set my automatic backup to run again tonight, so will see what
happens.
Cheers for the advise.

Hello all,
I have set up an old laptop to act as a small home server at home, the
idea being that it is quiet and low powered to be left on basically
24/7.
Storage was an issue as I wanted it to act as a file server for music
