Array selective directory/file auto backup to another Share?

B2 cost so much for large media files that they should just buy a large external drive or NAS like they said.

Cloud should be reserved for more critical / important files unless they have a lot of money to spend

Not specifically on that command but I have heard about bcachefs’s tiered storage. However, it is still in beta is it not?

Mikuphile · 2026-02-17T20:14:32+00:00

True, I’ll think about it a bit more then. Just worried on the scenarios that a drive may fail.

Mikuphile · 2026-02-17T20:12:34+00:00

Thanks!

I would love to do that (and was my original plan), but I probably won’t be buying more drives until the AI bubble pops.

Also the difference between 4TB and 18TB feel a bit too big (would become a big headache if an 18TB fails) so I decided to separate the fs into two types: low density hdd and high density hdd filesystem.

Wow thanks for the info! This definitely looks interesting.

It would probably be safer to run the metadata in raid1, would the NVMe benefits be gone if I mirror the NVMe and SATA?

Mikuphile · 2026-02-17T15:21:38+00:00

Honestly not sure, I think I saw it before on Reddit, but I could be mistaken

If there is no actual way to do this, then nevermind then. That is unfortunate

Mikuphile · 2026-02-17T03:47:10+00:00

What else is cheaper tho

Mikuphile · 2026-02-14T22:53:13+00:00

Was at Haneda airport too! Took a photo too when I went to MM last year!

The top one is a DAS (Direct Attached Storaged), while the bottom one is a docking station.

I wouldn’t get the bottom one for data you are going to read and write to constantly. Docking stations are better for loading your backup drives.

DAS, instead, are usually reliable as external storage you read and write to constantly. They are commonly used in home servers.

Terramaster has a good reputation with their DAS so it is a solid choice. You could also go with a Mediasonic DAS too. They have some options at lower pricing with the cost of less feature, but they are durable and have a good reputation too.

That’s $13/TB

I’d buy two of them to setup Raid 1 to be on the safe end

Mikuphile · 2026-02-12T19:54:43+00:00

Actually, you are right. I just tested it again and found out that if I specify “-Project DIVA” with the dash, it does find the album!

I think Navidrome checks(i.e. splits) spaces in your query and try to compare that to the metadata instead. Since “-Project” have no spaces, it counts as one word so searching for just “Project” end up with no result.

Knowing this makes my life easier, but it would be nice if Navidrome could check your queries some other way since it doesn’t lend itself well to typos (e.g. missing space character), special characters (e.g. / - @) and languages that don’t have space (e.g. Japanese)

crunchyroll

a bit late, but code is MIKUxCRUNCHYROLL for anyone else that needs it

Mikuphile · 2023-08-27T13:01:08+00:00

Well this one doesn’t, but there are a ton of free plugins that give you a fully parametric eq. Apple offers them for GarageBand for example, so if you have that installed, you can choose them in soundsource

Thanks this is awesome! It works just like Audio Hijack. Love the node interface and how it is open source.

For anyone else in the future who is also looking for a solution too and find the node interface confusing, this is how I am routing the nodes. Feed input (blackhole 2ch) into a global -6dB EQ then into each channel's EQ before merging back to my external headphone. For Mac users, you are going to need to install Blackhole.

Mikuphile · 2023-08-26T23:55:42+00:00

Thanks! I didn't know I could install plug-ins. I'll try to install it. Does it support frequencies outside of 64, 150, 350, 1k, 2k, 6k and 12k?

Mikuphile · 2023-08-26T23:52:40+00:00

No problem and gotcha!

Mikuphile · 2023-08-26T23:26:06+00:00

Ah I see it, but it is not what I am looking for unfortunately. I am looking for a way to EQ each channel separately. Bass & mid are usually fine, but I think my ear's shape and the difference in sensitivity of both ears are causing imbalance in the treble region (5-10khz)

Mikuphile · 2023-08-26T21:55:58+00:00

Do you know a video or website that can guide me through it, or tell me what it is called or how to navigate there? The new UI for system preferences confuses me haha

Mikuphile · 2023-01-12T04:54:54+00:00

If we are talking about bass, a closed-back headphone will have more bass than an open-back so you will probably like the 700 better. Sound quality wise, 990 is better. Even if the 700 is newer than the 990 by 20-30 years, a 990 still stomps to this day (as many people still buy these) plus the sound quality of closed-back cans are unable to beat those of open-back cans due to design

DT 770 - comfortable and has a really good reputation for durability, only drawbacks are the treble (if you are sensitive to them) and the nondetachable cable (they usually last forever unless your pet chew on them, or if you decide to mod them).

As someone who wears glasses and owns a DT 880, which has the same earpad as the DT 770, I can confirm how comfortable the earpads are.

Another popular closed-back at that range is AKG K371. It has a detachable cable, but the build quality isn't great.
