datahoarder

My current setup is an Odroid H3+ with 2x8TB hard drives configured in raid 1 via mdadm. It is running Ubuntu server and I put in 16GB of RAM. It also has a 1TB SSD on it for system storage....

Hey everyone...

I’m wondering how to effectively keep track of the data I hoard. I’m almost at 80TB and currently use very basic folders structure to keep track of my data. I’m looking for something like a full text index maybe even a like a search engine for local data? Is there such a tool?

Anyone have thoughts about backblaze?...

I should really start doing regular backups again, do the 3-2-1 backup strategy again, and organize my backups but there’s so many files and stuff on my devices and external drives that it’s overwhelming and I don’t know how to properly sort it. ADHD kicks my ass too and I know that it takes a while to backup and that...

As the title says, I would like to open a new google workspace account (the one with shared drives) to store/backup around 30TB of data, but I'm reading of people that are getting emails that say the account will be limited to 5tb, including shared drives, and if you want unlimited shared drives again you have to buy at least 5...

I’ve been using Stacher for a while to backup entire Youtube channels I semi regularly go back to watch their older stuff....

This is a write up for those needing to get video off cheapo ICSee / XMEye video cameras. The camera doesn’t use a standard partition or files and as such appears as RAW to Windows and unrecognized to Linux. Running DiskGenius did not detect any files. The mobile software does not make this easy and some of the desktop...

After upgrading my server, I have a bunch of spare drives. Both the on-site and off-site server are now completely full (Node 804) and adding more is a huge pain in the ass....

My unRAID server has 12 data drives, 2 parity drives, and 3 SSD cache pools. Plus dual Xeons on a SuperMicro ATX board....
