Kind of depends on how you want to access it, and how you want others to access it.

Just gonna need you to sign here saying you’re responsible for having three phase power piped in to charge this thing…

My biggest issue is I work in IT and by the time I’m done for the day I absolutely don’t want to screw with it. I just wanna fire up and go. It seems that I might need to do some research, as things have progressed further than I’d realized.

Nope, I’m almost exclusively single player at this point. How’s the performance and everything? Is there any drop off?

This is the final hurdle keeping me on windows, a seamless gaming experience. If SteamOS can hammer everything out, there’s zero reason to stay.

Yeah, it’s been a long time since I’ve looked at and kind of RAID/Storage/data preservation stuff… like 256GB spinning platters were the “hot new thing” last time I did.

I’m starting from scratch…in more ways than one lol

Very cool, this is actually the sort of thing I was interested in. I’m looking at building a fairly heavy NAS box before long and I’d love to not have to deal with the expense of a full raid setup.

For stuff like shows/movies, how do they perform after recovery?

Yeah, that’s generally my consensus as well. Just curious if someone had a better way that maybe I didn’t know about.

I’ve never been a big fan of RAID for this reason… but I’ve also never had enough mission critical data that I couldn’t just store hard copy backups.

That being said… let me ask you this:

Is there a better way than RAID for data preservation/redundancy?

I’ve skimmed the notes, is this one one that rips and decodes the download files or finds copies based on Metadata?

I miss my note 10… Cherish it as long as you can.

Probably be time to sit down and run through Xenogears again…
