    I tried it with a 4 bay USB 3.2 chassis over USC-C using zfs raidz, constantly had issues with the array just dying and needing to bring it back online manually many times per day. It never got better and latency was an issue too.

    Move all drives to a single 8 port pcie card and it worked without issue for years.

    Not worth the hassle and expense.














  • I only had to suffer through the ending, still makes me mad.

    The story, if anyone is bored…

    I was on a work retreat/hack-a-thon and the final episode was being broadcast that night. I’d tried and failed to find any part of game of thrones interesting in the past, I’d never seen a complete episode.

    Everyone is there glued to the TV, I’m at the dinning room table trying to get some kind of work done, but ended up watching most of the episode.

    What a massive pile of crap I thought to myself, no idea what these people are on about.

    I’m glad everyone agreed it sucked, but really annoyed that is the only episode I’ve seen, and I will never waste my time on it.
