No backup for my media. Only redundacy.

For my nextcloud data, anytime i made major changes.

Yeah. They released a new black color. It used to be white, it look like a small air purifier.

Im running Aoostar R1 Intel n100 for 3 months now. I bought it barebone. I bought the ram, ssd and hdd seperately. It has 1x m.2 nvme slot and x2 3.5/2.5" disk bay. But i swap the wifi card to another nvme because im not using it.

Intel spec is 6w for n100 but my r1 total wattage is 32w idle including extra usb fan at the top. A bit at the high side after researching around but i dont really mind.

Last time i bought an nvme with windows 11 installed. The seller apparently sells pulled out unit. Usually i just wiped it clean and installed a new os.

But, since it came with win11. I thought to myself, i want to see whats new. Fuck me, cant even skip the login requirement. I remember there’s a cmd line i can type to skip. Nope, apparently ms patched it. Fuckers.

Tried another guide. I forgot which one is which but that did it. Forcing user to use ms account. Not in a million years. Miss me with that shit.

I used intel nuc j5005 for 4 years iirc with 2 bay hdd enclosure, Orico brand. Never had any problem that i hear about such as random diaconnecting. Granted i used it to host my media. So i dont pratically mind if the data is gone.

I used openmediavault with usb boot drive. Internal 2.5’ drive as docker appdata. All my media files is stored on the external enclosure. The only problem i noticed is the temperature but thats because of high ambient temp.

If youre planning to use ext enclosure for critical data. Might wanna think twice. But, if you have proper backup plan. Sure why not.

Yeah man. I fucking love obey, 1x1, teardrop, parasite, kingslayer and luden. So good.

Kingslayer!!

Yeah. I only have 6TB. Most of it is just movies and shows for plex. I don’t have backup at all. I could always redownload what i want to watch. I noticed that i rarely rewatch what i download. It’s pointless to backup it.
