RAID is carrying a spare tire in your car. Backups are like having an extra car in the garage in case your primary geta totaled.
It’s possible you’ll never need either one, but if you pop a flat, a whole extra car is overkill.
It’s not a perfect metaphor, since most people don’t have a spare car.

But it’s not just the cat. OP wants to track the foods the cat is eating and the allergens in the food, and then look for correlations and trends. You could manage most of that with a spreadsheet, but you’d have to update reference tables every time you add a new entry. OP wants something user friendly.
Perplexica? What sort of sauce goes with that?
For a minute I legit thought Italy had dropped a new pasta shape.
I remember learning that 3.5" disks were still called “floppy” disks, despite being rigid plastic. My teacher took apart a disk and showed us how the inside was a film, but all that did was encourage us to take apart the disks and make desk toys out of the springs.
Man, I remember when Zip Disks were a big deal and a GB was a lot of storage.
I love that this exists, and thank you for introducing me to the site as well.
Good point, but let’s say you download 20 new movies, meaning rewrite to every block on the drive each week. That’s barely 1,000 write cycles a year, and we’re still talking about a hundred thousand write cycles, which would take 100 years. Even if you start seeing bad blocks at 10,000 write cycles, by the time the drives are wearing out, the cost of replacement drives should be considerably lower.
Yep, and it used to be free for personal use, although I don’t know if that’s the case anymore. Either way, I will highly recommend it.
The write cycles shouldn’t really be an issue for a home NAS because you’re not erasing and rewriting over and over. For commercial projects, where logs, security video, or rotating data needs to be stored and erased hundreds of thousands of times.
Is ngrok still a thing?
What do you use the Pi for now?
I had a bunch of Pi 3Bs sitting around, so I made piholes for a few friends and family, I made a dedicated MAME emulator that I never have time to play, and I gave one to each of my kids to learn about computers and linux. I also use one for work as a linux test environment for our software, but the 3 hardware doesn’t really keep up.
I would be very interested to read this in an article format, but I have zero interest in watching a video about it.
I haven’t done it myself, so I hesitate to recommend a specific project. But Carpi and OpenAuto are good places to start.
Why risk it? Build your own with a raspberry pi and a touchscreen.
Hypocritic Oath: First, swear no oaths.
Do people despise roundabouts? The only complaints I’ve ever heard are from property owners who don’t want to cede the additional land required. But I’m not an expert on the subject.
You can’t go back the wrong way, you have to change lanes or you reach a dead end. No left, only right.
Check out Immich next. It’s sort of like a self-hosted Google photos except it allows you to own your photos.
