2 were exos 4 weren’t. I now have 12 WDs some are reds some aren’t and none have failed with the oldest being 12years.

Glad you’ve done well. I’ve had 6 drives unexpectedly critically fail in my life.

All were segates. Would never buy one again.

Soon you will lie awake at night thinking “what else can I docker”

Same brought mine almost 8 years ago, and have never had to pay them a cent more.

Overall not a bad investment.

And plex just looks nicer and offers a better experience.

If it changes I’ll consider migrating but for the moment Plex had done right by thier lifetime pass members

My last build and current have been a Thinkstation and a z series workstation, both used from ex-gov auctions, were decently priced, will run everything you wanna throw at them.

They do come at the cost of increased power draw, but since I’ve put in solar I’m not worried about that.

And nothing of value was lost

If I was to reboot how would I flex to my windows friends that I don’t have to. 🤔

I think I too wanna side with iran now 🤣

Can they can start with Microslop?

Yes buying second hand stops you giving your money to Google, however it still supports ppl buying them in the first place. And that supports Google.

I wish there was more options in the Graphene space as it’s something I’d love to tinker with too. But also don’t wanna buy from Google.

Hence why I go back to hoping projects like pinephone take off (albeit I’m realistic of the chances of that happening)
