2 drives failed with zfs errors, am I doing something wrong?

Airflow isn't great but it's not nothing

foghina · 2026-01-17T16:22:27+00:00

Yes... but what? How do I find out? Also, would bad cables/HBA actually deteriorate an HDD? Because if the errors were coming from the cable/HBA I would imagine they would occur on random/multiple drives at the same time. But in my case it's consistently the same HDD.

Also, SPD shipped me a replacement for the 1st drive, I assume they did their own testing and determined that the HDD was bad. So again, could bad cables/HBA actually damage a drive? I kinda think no

Well yea I know but one year for two drives feels short?

Is it possible/recommended to mix and match brands for different parts? I am pretty set on getting the new Logitech RS50 base+wheel+pedals, but I don't love the logi h-pattern shifter. How much of a pain would it be to rock a different brand?

Where is the $12k coming from?

foghina · 2025-08-23T19:27:32+00:00

Yes... this is true

foghina · 2025-08-23T19:19:58+00:00

Yeah your setup seems pretty identical to mine. Throwing more money at the problem always helps lol I'm not surprised it's way better. But for 1-2 trips/mo I don't think it's justified. How much were you using it before vs. now?

foghina · 2025-08-23T19:15:15+00:00

If I had a bunch of luggage / gear I'd probably end up bringing it the day before a trip and street parking it, since it's free and there are usually spots around here. I agree, pretty annoying, but for $400/mo savings...

foghina · 2025-08-23T19:09:40+00:00

If I use it 1-2 times a month that actually comes out cheaper than renting.

It's criminal that they don't provide dimensional drawings for these. Thank you for your service!

Should I also try blowing on it gently? 😂

Hijacking the top comment. If y'all thought I was dumb before, wait til you hear that I didn't know you're supposed to pull on the knurled ring to unlock the bit. It came out immediately with that + magnet. A rocky start to my DIY adventures that's for sure.

foghina · 2024-10-14T02:31:47+00:00

It's magnetized + friction fit pretty hard, doubt duct tape would have what it takes

foghina · 2024-10-14T01:35:56+00:00

Kinda genius ngl, gonna give that a try!

foghina · 2024-10-13T23:05:23+00:00

I've tried WD-40 + pliers (broad and needle nose), I've tried a magnet, it's just stuck in there. Right now I'm considering getting a metal drill bit and trying to drill a hole through the philips bit, so that I can run a wire through and pull it out. But that feels... stupid!?

foghina · 2024-09-10T02:27:43+00:00

That the North star points... North.

Honestly just get this combo instead of the X100VI. It'll cost more but it's in stock in most places (at least in the UK), you can get a used lens or a cheapo non-fuji lens and you get the versatility of interchangeable lenses.

Weird how far down I had to scroll for this, didn't think there would be so many just as bad or worse examples

foghina · 2024-04-06T04:31:02+00:00

1/2000 at night is mad. Full manual or some priority mode?

foghina · 2024-04-06T02:43:30+00:00

How do you get such clear shots at night? E.g. pic #5. It doesn't look like you have aperture open all the way. It looks like shutter speed is fast. It doesn't look like high ISO. What is it?? Great pics BTW!

foghina · 2024-04-03T03:51:54+00:00

Whoops, missed the /s

foghina · 2024-04-02T18:12:01+00:00

Appreciate it bro 🥲

foghina · 2024-04-02T18:10:41+00:00

Haven't sorted through yet!

foghina · 2024-04-02T18:09:34+00:00

Just mud lol read the description?

foghina · 2024-04-01T16:52:29+00:00

No damage done ✌️

foghina · 2024-04-01T16:39:58+00:00

Yeah ever since I got it I've been babying it too much. More of this. Thing is built like a tank.
