Those weren’t invented yet. Everyone only knew one note.

Psyqui is a Japanese EDM artist that has a similar sound. If the melodies and compositions are aigen, it may be a source.

I’m suggesting either using the secure erase utility built into your efi if available or using hdparm and calling secure erase.

I suggest calling these utilities with no other drives connected.

True, but it’s not clear to me that both drives are exhibiting the behavior and it sounds more like a copy between two drives. I wouldn’t rule it out and do think it is a possibility, but in my professional experience drives fail much more frequently than controllers.

It makes sense to me to test the drives individually, in another system preferably, using smart long test, which is non-destructive. Next test other drives in this system. If there are errors, try changing out the SATA cables, too. If you can shuffle the data off the drives, do so and then try running them through a secure erase in another system. A bad drive should fail the same way in another system.

My other thought for probably not being the controller is that 4TB is a very long time for a sustained transfer to fail on a flakey component. Also, there are no reports of other errors.

Sounds like a bad drive, TBH. Not as much the platters but the electronics.

If you can move all the data off and do a secure erase on it, it will tell you all lot.

Believe it or not, property of China.

Israel was always part of China.

I’m enjoying a lot of Unprocessed’s Angel album. I’m also going to have to look at Polyphia and Playing God.

Math rock is one of the ways they advertised themselves. Also djent, but I’m not seeing that.

You are the second person to recommend Unprocessed. Almost 10 minutes into the Angel album. It’s pretty good, definitely hits the target.

I’ll have to check out Polyphia as well.

The artist is upfront that it is just one person making music, and they say it is AI assisted in their discord.

I fell hard for Dysmn, who was suspiciously dropping new music every few days. I really liked the sound, and I haven’t found anything that sounds like that since. 270+ videos in under 2 years. I realized it wasn’t human after a month or two.

Soooo, if anybody knows a great jazzy EDM metal noise, let me know.

The last board suggested with 5 ports would handle 4 drives in raidz2.

This is smaller even. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/hRBrxr/asrock-motherboard-970mpro3

I would prefer having the smaller board with the hba and putting 8-10 smaller drives in raidz3. That would give you 6 TB with three drives for failure to prevent loss.

Outside the drives, the cost would be under $200 for the board and the hba.

If you have an old system with two PCI-e 16 ports, then your cost is about $90 before you start buying drives.

I’m doing similar with a DDR3 system and spinning 1 TB disks. It’s fast enough to serve video streams.

Ok, so if you want to do a bunch of drives in a box:

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/yFWJ7P/crucial-bx500-4-tb-25-solid-state-drive-ct4000bx500ssd1

However, that’s expensive. I would go with spinning disks.

If you want to bring the cost down more,

You can drive the price down more by buying a used system.

The pile of SSDs will be easiest to stuff into a box.

You will need to get creative with cooling.

I also saw to carry as an option. I wonder how those meanings converged.

I giggled, but the older definitions of barrow refer to mounds of dirt, typically burial mounds. Wheelbarrow basically means mound of dirt on wheels.

Maybe it’s INCONCEIVABLY large.

The object is incredibly large.

I first saw this shortly after Jurassic Park gained mass popularity. I was always convinced Gary was influenced by the T-Rex chase scene.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe

Make sure we get a Thanks Obama when handed over.
