  • I just grab them off ebay. SAS drives are almost exclusively used in enterprise servers, so there’s fuck all demand for them on the used market. Buy a cheap PCIe SAS controller card and you’re good to go.

    I use Unraid which doesn’t care at all about what types of drives you use, so you can mix and match into one huge array. I have 8x SAS and 2x SATA drives in one array.



  • I mainly installed the screen as an easy way to see what’s happening during boot, so I don’t have to lug the server into the other room and connect it to a monitor when I make changes to things. I’m planning on setting up a stats readout so it’s useful the rest of the time - things like network status/traffic, disk/cpu utilisation etc.

    I used it to self-medicate for my ADHD for years. It calmed down all the noise in my head and allowed me to have one train of thought at a time. It also made me high, which was nice. I’m the end, it became a crutch for dealing with the hard aspects of life, and fucked with my brain chemistry a lot. I ended up a paranoid wreck, developed severe anxiety and stopped. Now I enjoy it occasionally but if I smoke too much it makes me feel depressed for days afterwards.
