How’s your experience been?

This… This is half of it haha

+1 for matrix. Also check out schlidichat which is a nice client for matrix forked from Element

God avoid SMR… (Unless you know what you’re doing in which case you wouldn’t be here)

Is it just you, any transcoding? Have you tried it without the USB drive?

My bad. What are you using the drives for?

So 2 HDDs one SATA and one via USB in RAID? Can you remove the RAID drives and test it out?

Also what size are the drives and what’s their capacity?

What kind of drives do you have in your RAID? Is it SMR?
