If you ever wanted a good reason to keep around your failed hard drives, scavenging screwed up logic boards is a good reason. Ha!

Time to refresh the home lab NAS since I don't think HDD prices are getting better anytime soon and my current NAS is 6 or 7 years old. I found some used disks for $25/TB which, at current rates, is pretty good.
This also lets me move away from Synology and I'm probably going with TrueNAS this time around with new hardware for the primary system.

Trying to consolidate my data, get better (i.e., non-piecemeal/chaotic) backup running, realizing I need more HDD space.
Fuck me. shoulda bought that 3 years ago.

LLM technological advances
We need to educate our elderly that many things they see on Walled Gardens, spoken by what looks like people, are in fact just Avatars generated with Large Language Models.
These things will:
show whatever you like to seesay whatever you like to hear become your personal echo chamberlie and hallucinate, to make you feel Superiorto accomplish that you stay there much longer than normal!!!
You are literally the battery that feeds that large language model and thus the Walled Garden
These things now look so good, that they are difficult to distinguish from the real thing, a recorded living person, unless you look frame by frame, like I have from time to time.
What will tip you off is that they will say exactly what you want to hear, they'll show themselves exactly how you like to see them, they will even sound like the way you want them to do.
Many Walled Garden clients have been recording our voices and phrases for years, thus that was easily to accomplish.
So not only do these things steal our ability to buy SSDs memory GPUs and APUs for normal prices, they also critically mislead our elderly and those who are LLM computer illiterate.
That can be a billion+ people
I have photographs / screencaps which I will deliberately not include, because I do not want to alienate those who want to read about the subject, but not have a large language model image plastered under this informative post
Inform your elderly!Let them ask you if they are not sure
I have deliberately included the link to physical Walled Garden because those places just look so beautiful in that Verde colour

Alte NAS-Festplatten mit Linux auslesen
Stecken in einem alten NAS noch Speichermedien, die man gerne anderweitig verwenden möchte? Oder hat das NAS-Hardware Fehler und man muss Daten retten? In solchen Fällen kann ein Linux-System in Kombination mit einer Docking-Station hilfreich sein.

Tekoäly, taas: Maailman suurin kiintolevyvalmistaja WD kertoo, että se on myynyt jo etukäteen koko vuoden 2026 tuotantonsa
Ostajina olivat - tietysti - jättimäiset tekoälyfirmat, jotka käyttävät perinteisiä mekaanisia kiintolevyjäkin datakeskuksissaan.
