  • Warrantied drives still fail, they just happen to ship you a replacement.

    Commercial drive trashing solutions are basically a smaller, fancier version of the mechanism in a log splitter.
    You could probably rig a sketchy drive wedge/bending thing with a pump jack rather easily.
    Wear PPE.

    The odds of someone taking a failed drive and transplanting the platters to a working drive is pretty low to begin with.

    Me? I don’t have tons of drives to destroy, so I just unscrew the thing, get the platters out and smash those.












  • Yea, it’s not the first time I’ve seen this discussion either.
    I don’t wanna seem like I’m not believing you or belittling your experience, I just find it weird that we (we, users, as a whole, not just you and I) have such wildly different experiences with it.

    As is, I have a vastly better experience with my own nextcloud than with corporate’s onedrive, with more stuff on mine.

    Wish I knew why it’s so inconsistent.
    Even though my nextcloud experience is fine, I know plenty of people with the opposite.


  • Legit have had none of these issues.
    I do get a notification once in a while if I modify a picture fast enough, like a quick crop and it’s still uploading. Like snap pic and edit within the same 5 seconds or so.
    Basically just a: “there are multiple versions of the same file (which is true), which one do you wanna keep”.

    Then again mine is running on a pretty beefy server which might hide issues rooted in performance.
    I remember it being hell when I was running it on a RPi.




  • Interesting.
    I’m not doing anything special that wasn’t in one of the popular tutorials and I thought that’s how it was supposed to work, although it might very well be a “bug” how it behaves right now.

    I don’t know enough about this, but the drivers are blacklisted on the host at boot, yet the console is still displayed through the GPU’s HDMI at that time which might depend on the specific GPU (a vega64 in my case).

    The host doesn’t have a graphical desktop environment, just the shell.
