It is mostly to keep old stuff from going away. I really have less than 2 tb . I am hoping it lasts over 2 years for me.

 

Entertaining shit taking people for their 21st birthday.

 

Mofo you're barely old enough to shave lol

priceless

 

Are you building the system yourself? I just bought the OEM system builder version of windows home server. Im going with 21 tb and a cable card tuner, she will be my home automation and security cam system...

 

I'm just buying the tower and sticking hard drives in. It isn't anything fancy.
Are you using wifi cam?
I have given thought to a security cam system. I just don't want real long cables in every room.

How long do you plan to keep the recordings?

On friday, I saw a computer display 1.1P.
That's right P. in order words 1000 Tb or 1000000GB. One of these days, a 1P drive will be less than 100 dollars. I just hope to live long enough to see it.

 

RAID?

 

chesbay and her fucking 1-liners :smt043

 

Argh Monday. I still need a John & Yoko day

 

Na, im wiring the whole house and starting with one 8 camera card in the server.

I'll prolly, keep a week or two recorded. The cameras will only record when there is motion.

 

no. If the raid dies, I lose all of my stuff. This is suppose to be a backup and not a large collection of one instance of data. It is also more expensive to create backups of raids.

 

Um. My understanding of raids is they are a form of back up as the data is split and written twice to different drives. It's used especially to prevent catastrophic data loss
But it depends on how you set it up.

 

If a certain amount of hard drives die, you lose all of your data.

 

Guess I'm not the only one who doesn't trust this cloud bs

 

Cloud has never not once lost data since I started using it..whenever
I'd rather trust my data to a server than mechanical hard drives or SSDs

 

You do realize that the cloud is made up of mechanical hard drives or SSDs?


They are just running raids and backup raids. there is nothing wrong with you putting your stuff there. It is just well.. you lose security.

 

I don't trust any second party with my data. Am I just suppose to take their word that they won't leak it?

 

I don't have anything worth stealing, lol.
