| lazypower-travel | ChinnoDog: you should be fine with a 4k sector drive | 11:56 |
| lazypower-travel | ChinnoDog: my WD Red 2.5 TB drives have been champs - i'm running them in a BTRFS raid setup | 11:56 |
| InHisName | ChinnoDog: you could fill it up with a bazillion text tweets | 14:45 |
| ChinnoDog | 2.5tb of plaintext would be an obscene amount of information. | 16:01 |
| ChinnoDog | lazypower-travel: It is a WD green. There are mixed reviews. | 16:02 |
| InHisName | How long to read 2.5 TB text as a speed reader ? Say you could read avg of 5K words per min. | 16:54 |
| InHisName | at 10 bytes per word & space, punctuation, etc. That'd be 50 K bytes / min. It would only be 50 mega minutes to read it all. Read only 16.667 hours a day, comes to 1,000 minutes a day. So,,,, only 50,000 days to read the whole thing. | 16:58 |
| ChinnoDog | Average word size is 5 characters so that 10 bytes assumes UTF-16. More likely UTF-8 which will be closer to 5 bytes per word. Compress it and you will have 10x as much space. | 18:31 |
| ChinnoDog | No worries though. I don't have that much text. Maybe I can collect 2.5tb of lolcats. | 18:32 |
| adom | so i've been using mosh for my SSH connections rather than just ssh command. really liking it a lot. | 19:41 |
| adom | highly recommend checking it out. | 19:41 |
| adom | although its really useful for me just because walking upstairs from our storage/office room to the server room i lose wifi so my ssh sessions get cut off. | 19:43 |
| adom | so if you're not breaking connection often its not amazing i guess, but still very nice and easy to use. | 19:44 |
