Oh I was mentioning when I'm on Kripton on that post. You know, superman gets powers from being on Earth while being a normal bloke on Kripton. It works the other way around to me Big Grin

Aw. I remember when I was a new born forumer. I necroposted and you sent me a little nudge through PM as a good mod should. Then I did it again not knowingly.

Anyway... glad to see you have you old broom and mop again. Have fun in isle six. (meh, don't know what that means, but felt that it fit right in)

Ramen noodles with hot sauce, bread sticks with marinara sauce, and milagro anejo tequila.

Preparing to fire up the file server, verify the 3 TB main store, and dump two 2 TB hard disks to tertiary storage. Then I'll initialize a 6 TB array and copy my DVD files to it. Once operational, I'll convert the tertiary store to main storage, for a total of 12 TB main storage on the file server. (RAID 6 @ 3 TB, RAID 5 @ 6 TB, + 3 TB backed to external hard disk.) Hopefully, later I will get to rooting a pogoplug device and installing ARM linux on it. I doubt I'll get to my Christmas tree or the Raspberry Pi today.

It probably would have been wise to install a boot drive in the file server first....

Tonight I am pinning pictures of Cute Kittens on by Pinterest board of the same name. And I don't even really like cats that much in real life.

I bought a thing of Peeps, never having had them. And it came with a Peeps plushie.

Weird.

Well, I'll probably get a Pogoplug rooted and linux installed, but the file server is taking longer than expected, including having to do some old skool case modding using a dremel. I guess you can give a girl good hardware, but you can't make a hardware girl be good.


I'm dumping the planned 3 TB primary / tertiary pair and putting that combo in the bedroom htpc. What's left is to crack a couple external hard drives, matched pair, for a final, high speed RAID 1 array, and then pile everything in the case and install Home Server 2011.



MOAR TEQUILA!!
