Wenn ich mir den Kommenmtar zum damaligen Händler anschaue und lese: "....Vorsicht! Scam! Der Händler verkauft gebrauchte Festplatten, die einfach neu eingeschweißt wurden als Neuware.
Von xxxx Customer am 23. September 2024...."

dann wundert es mich nicht dass meine Festplatte nach 2,5 Jahren das Lebensende erreicht hat. Beweisen kann ich nichts:-/

Выделенный сервер: как выбрать конфигурацию и не переплатить

Если вы хотите запустить гипервизор или высоконагруженную СУБД, ресурсов VPS может быть недостаточно. В такой ситуации на помощь приходит выделенный физический сервер. Но сколько ядер процессора и оперативной памяти понадобится именно вашему проекту? Хватит ли канала на 1 Гбит/с или нужно больше? Можно взять конфигурацию с запасом, но переплачивать за ресурсы, которые большую часть времени будут простаивать, тоже не хочется. В этой статье разберём основные параметры выделенного сервера и расскажем, как подобрать конфигурацию под конкретную задачу.

Зачем дата-центрам магнитные ленты: ИИ возвращает технологию из прошлого века

Все мы живем в мире, полном противоречий. С одной стороны, постоянно появляются и очень быстро развиваются новые технологии. В то же время многое остается неизменным просто потому, что оно работает. Магнитная лента — ровесница послевоенных ЭВМ, технология настолько древняя, что впору держать ее в музее рядом с перфокартами. Но удивительный факт: в первом квартале 2026 года суммарная емкость поставок LTO выросла на 57% по сравнению с прошлым годом. Динозавр вдруг ожил, и виноват в этом, как ни странно, искусственный интеллект. Обучение языковых моделей требует гигантских объемов хранения для исходных датасетов, с чем HDD или SSD не всегда справляются. В отличие от магнитных лент. Современный стандарт LTO-10 упаковывает до 40 ТБ чистых данных (или до 100 ТБ сжатых) на один компактный картридж.

I got Three Hitachi Deskstar 2TB drives for $60 (USD) from a guy on FB marketplace--$30 each for two of them, and the third for free because he figured it was probably used. All were new old stock, still in factory packaging and sealed foil packs, etc. $10/TB isn't half bad.

He was selling stuff from a defunct business, little by little. He gave me some active cooled HDD enclosures (USB or SATA connection) for $10 each, a powered Rosewill 2-HDD enclosure with hardware RAID (I think? It can be set for JBOD or BIG configuration) for $25, which seems a decent price--also new in its box. And an ethernet switch for $10.

Now I need to learn how to use the storage array thingy and the ethernet switch. I think I can use both of them, once I figure them out. The RAID question will require more self-education, I think.

Mechanical drives rule

WHY?

SSD's die without warning

Another one of my SSD's died. It saved all data without a hitch yesterday and this morning. I fired it up minutes ago.

It doesn't even report itself anymore!

I've not lost any data. Last time that happened was in the FDD era with a DSSD disk. That's longer ago than many of you were even born

I've NEVER trusted SSD's for long life and being kind with SMART warnings.

That's why I never have important data on them

Score:

Dead SSD's => two
Warnings before death => none

Drive status after death: not even visible in UEFI or detected by the HDD / SSD tray.

EVEN THE TRAY DOES NOT SEE THE DEAD SSD's!

Lousy technology, I say

I shrugged when I understood this SSD also died, so silently. It's becoming a pattern.

Now I want a box of 24 20TB HDD's. That way I will never want untrusted SSD tech again

Quotes:

SSDs rely on non-volatile memory, typically NAND flash, to store data in memory cells. The performance and endurance of SSDs vary depending on the number of bits stored per cell, ranging from high-performing single-level cells (SLC) to more affordable but slower quad-level cells (QLC). In addition to flash-based SSDs, other technologies such as 3D XPoint offer faster speeds and higher endurance through different data storage mechanisms.

A hard disk drive (HDD), hard disk, hard drive, or fixed disk[a] is an electro-mechanical computer data storage device that stores and retrieves digital data using magnetic storage with one or more rigid rapidly rotating platters coated with magnetic material. The platters are paired with magnetic heads, usually arranged on a moving actuator arm, which read and write data to the platter surfaces.[1] Data is accessed in a random-access manner, meaning that individual blocks of data can be stored and retrieved in any order. HDDs are a type of non-volatile storage, retaining stored data when powered off.[2][3][4] Modern HDDs are typically in the form of a small rectangular box, possibly in a disk enclosure for portability. Modern disks do not have removable media, in contrast to the disk drives common in the 1960s and 1970s.[b]

Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (contrived acronym S.M.A.R.T. or SMART) is a monitoring system included in computer hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs).[2] Its primary function is to detect and report various indicators of drive reliability, or how long a drive can function while anticipating imminent hardware failures.

When S.M.A.R.T. data indicates a possible imminent drive failure, software running on the host system may notify the user so action can be taken to prevent data loss, and the failing drive can be replaced without any loss of data

HDD's die properly

They warn you in advance

SSD's die horribly!

Before this HDD was here at it's death spiral, it warned with noises AND messages in /var/log/syslog

When it died it gave me these kind of msg's

The point of this post is not that the HDD is dead.

The point is that mechanical HDD's tell you way in advance that they will die, without you needing to look at the SMART status!

why don't SSD's have these clear logs?

I have had my reasons never to trust SSD's with medium time archival interval. You need TAR and real TAPE for long time archival intervals

Rückblick von PC Games Hardware auf die Entwicklung der Festplatten.
Puh, da tauchen so viele Namen auf, die ich nicht nur kenne, sondern tatsächlich auch selbst im Einsatz hatte.
Meine erste Festplatte war eine Seagate ST-225 mit 20MB. Die steckte in meinem ersten PC, einem 80286 mit 12MHz.
Oh man, ich bin alt.

Nachtrag: Die CPUs der #TimeCapsule|s ist etwas schwach auf der Brust. Timingprobleme zu vermeiden ist das Gebot - dazu erstens beim Einsatz externer #HDD Platten die Wartezeit beim Spin-Up auf mindestens 60 Sekunden verlängern und zweitens in #TimeCapsuleSMB das volle Debug-Logging einzuschalten. Eine laufende Verbindung von #TimeMachine auf dem #Mac sollte man ohnehin vorher stilllegen - ssh erlaubt nur einen Login gleichzeitig.

Aber dann läuft das sehr stabil.

Data storage

Learn from this case,

there is no cloud just someone else's computer!

Keep spare copies of your data on your own storage devices. Regardless of price safe cash buy HDD (alot) SSD (some) manage store

One hundred and seventy one thousand 171,000 organizations affected. Data permanently deleted without recovery possibilities.

Paying customers

There are Open Source Solutions which even baby you with user interfaces of the graphic kind. You have no reason not to own your data.

The whole LLM bubble has thrown a massive locomotive in my chain off storage.

It is now not feasible for me to buy USB sticks SSDs HDDs hard drives just to experiment.

Without experimenting I will not learn how to properly use new operating systems.

I have still not be able to test illumos in a proper manner...

To give an indication of the markup difference that I have, an 8TB hard drive which had cost me USD140 is now close to USD 400

A 64 GB microSD card went from USD 5 to USD 20 which throws a wrench into my Raspberry Pi operations.

USB sticks also went the same route. I use those to boot up the raspberry pies so that I can feed the micro SD cards with data

I've had quite a few HDD fail and some SATA SSD fail. All within the past two year and a half, and this is storage that I was planning to replace in this year.

It's a strange world that we now need data center projects in order to get small amounts of storage for own home use.
