  • Lto tape. But I only have 15tb

    It quickly becomes cost effective when you actually need the data to be safe. Far easier to have off site backups. I have never had a problem , but I like to have offline backup. Most of the time my data is static. So I am only backing up projects files ans changes for the most part.

    If you have 40+ tb of dynamic data I can’t help there.

    Edit: I buy used drives that are usually 2 generations old, so I got lto-5 drives when lto 7 was new. The used drives may be less reliable but used drives can be 1/10th the price of the newest ones.












  • the price of oil is low and Russian refineries can’t refine and deliver vast amounts of oil due to attacks.

    Though Russia has in the past found effective ways to get around what would have truly been crippling financial situations. They have been very resourceful in the past. It just gets harder and harder each time . They are just in a worse situation in all ways year on year.

    This time they will get past it, but they are getting depleted. I just don’t see them ending the war until the choice is out their hands.
