     @p I'd like to issue a warning to all of you that if this ends up in somebody elses hands it's likely going to be a not nice time. there's nobody who wants to buy a "alt right" streaming platform for any reason other than they support the cause, or they want to turn your data over
     
     i would be wise for all of you to stop using odysee, purge data you can from the site, change emails on accounts before the auction takes place in a week

     @Christmas_Man @p i wouldnt do that -- CMR is a nightmare to restore in a RAID. im talking cold, cold storage. so videos that get accessed once every 6 months and only once -- it gets moved to hot storage and expired after 3 days. that will save a fortune on its own

     Rebuilding an array always sucks. No doubt. Hope you have 2+ drive redundancy and the array can still perform during the healing process.
     
     BUT... CMR is objectively better than SMR in every way but price. Is that not the case? Wasnt there a shit show about how WD reds were lying about drives actually being shingled?
     
     And in the world of WD Gold, Seagate EXOS... etc.... you cant even buy an SMR drive

     @zero @p @Christmas_Man in my mind I was thinking about the restore of an SMR RAID5 and how bad it was. im sorry. I was traveling at like 11:30am so my brain is all over the place.
     
     i have a lot of ideas i want to implement. i was talking to our datacenter guy about it who is on board with either just donating what we need, giving us that plus transit for a portion of the company or selling it out to us. he just wants poast to own odysee and i want to as well. i reached out to julian about it weeks before this was even a thing but he ignored me. if we buy it i'd probably fire him as a first act tbh

     hardware raid is dead.. I turn all HBA to just pass the drive through.
     
     ZFS is king... The BSD version not the shitty linux port of it.
     
     but I deploy way more Synology SHR2 arrays in practice. BTRFS is solid but I know its not doing the same janitor work ZFS plus buckets of ECC ram can do to fight bitrot.

     @Christmas_Man @graf You do slow spinny disks and a big distributed cluster for that. It's been a little more than a decade since I set up something like this, but an old team I was on used GlusterFS for archiving byproducts of the ETL pipelines (similar access pattern: it was data that had to stay accessible on demand, but wasn't needed on a daily basis).

     • pistolero :thispersondoesnotexist:
     Yeah, I imagine a single autonomous tape library capable of meeting the accessibility requirement would probably meet a lower demand for archive retrieval, but not with how many regions and users a platform like Odysee serves. $10k is cheap for a full rack, but when it's basically a glorified NAS that takes up 2 parking spots for racks, that's not a cheap NAS.

     @graf @p Practically all 3D-printed firearms would need to be hosted elsewhere if Odysee goes down. There are few people who could win that auction that I'd trust and you're one of them.

     @p @graf Based. I can't wait for revolver to be released so I can stuff it on a Pi in an M16A1 stock and host a gun on a gun in a gun while I shoot that gun.
