Upside is that most tiles are still as they were 🙃

Downside is that I either have to use WiFi to connect my server with the network (and I have to add a WiFi card/USB stick for that) or have to open up the ground myself and dig the tube + cable in myself.

I have been in the groundwork myself, but adding WiFi will make the server more flexibel in its placement 🤔

— and RAID10 instead of RAID6 because I think the probability of 2 drives in the same vdev failing right after eachother is too low and the #resilvering in a #RAID1 vdev is a lot quicker and less wearing of the other drive.

Also read/write performance will be a lot better with both decisions

So another update from me, because sometimes things go slow. I've booted a #NixOS live image and the #badblocks program is running a check of my four 4TB drives (been running for 86 hrs and done 84% I think the last time I checked).

I did change my decision to use #NILFS2 & #RAID6. After deliberate consideration I've switched my choice to #ZFS with #RAID10.
— no longer NILFS2 because it doesn't have compression and ZFS even includes the kitchen sink
