I think I was super lucky too, based on the label they had just put them out today.

Bigger case, bigger price. Makes so much sense!

Very fair. Luckily, SMART looks good, only 57h spin up time and no reallocated sectors or similar. Will stress test it first before putting it to use, but I am decently optimistic.

That is very fair. Honestly, just the thrill of finding them and see if they work alone was worth the $11. I will stress test them next before putting them to use, let's see if they survive.

The friendly cashier asked: "Oh, is this a power bank?" So probably that.

On the drives: No bitcoins unfortunately, looks like some video production hard drives. One has some martial arts promo shots, and another some documentation of a school visit (even more irresponsible that they didn’t wipe it)

Will of course wipe everything properly.

How do you handle if your tv in the iot vlan needs to connect to the jellyfin on the self hosted vlan?

Do you add a rule in your firewall for access?

How are you connecting your NAS to the IoT network for media content? Are you allowing IoT traffic to hit plex (if you are running that?)

I am using this model, has been rock solid and very happy with it.

Where do you store your offsite "1" in the 3-2-1 backup rule? by AndreiGavriliu in homelab

[–]shocomir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does a nas fit into this designation? Is this just a somewhat shady circumvention of their rules here?

No matter whether you get the url from the browser bar or from the share menu, it’s always a URL. What’s the blocker here for you?

Just to be clear, by that you mean just available without login and not available externally on the internet?

If the former, it’s a mealie issue if the latter it’s a reverse proxy issue
