/g/ What do you archive? Games, Music, Programs, etc...?
Why do you archive? & Ease of having it there when you need it? Feeling superior to others by having more 1s & 0s?
How do you archive? Any guidelines you follow?
just work stuff
programs, music, games I couldn't care less
as for settings I pretty much run default windows so nothing to backup there either
bump cause im super interested in this stuff but im not equipped to do it yet, new mini itx build main storage is running off a 250GB shit-tier HDD right now.. need to buy some drives asap

>>52210863
Books and games mainly. I have a ton of music as well but I wouldn't call that hoarding as I listen to most of my library pretty regularly. I have this weird urge to have some backup of games and books if things go to shit and like internet gets destroyed or something so I have shit to read and play, I can't really explain it. Books also mainly because I get interested in some subject, download a ton of books and only read a few but I don't delete them, it feels wrong...as if I was burning them.
>>52211262
yeah but 17e is a lot of money
books
I have thousands upon thousands upon thousands of pdf, mobi, epub, txt, chm, html files with books about approximately everything I find interesting

Which 4+TB drives are good these days?
every time i think about buying a 4TB or bigger drive i realize i still have like 2TB of space i don't even use.
i wish we had a /g/ wiki of shit everybody should have and how/where to acquire it. i hope someone is working on that.
>>52210908

>>52211281
This but add in with movies and tv shows. I probably watch more of my content than this anon reads but there is some stuff there that I downloaded and may probably never watch. And I'm not trying to be an ass, it just takes longer to read a book than it does to watch a movie and I can store thousands of books in the space it takes for a movie.
I do it mostly in case netflix or whatever no longer has the content available so that I may view anytime but also because I like being able to entertain myself (or others) without relying on an internet connection. I just use a small windows computer sharing folders over the network and I just physically back up the data to two other drives so it is in three places (two backup 'internal' hdds and an external)

>>52210863
my setup:
>1TB internal storage hard drive that everything gets downloaded to
>1TB external where the important non-porn shit gets backed up
>3TB external where the porn gets backed up to
>1TB external, this is the offsite backup that I have hidden inside my best friend's house without his knowledge
everything is encrypted with either truecrypt, diskcryptor or bitlocker btw.
I'm using FreeFileSync with the "mirror" preset to easily sync and update my external hard drives.
http://www.freefilesync.org/
I'm also using the 3-2-1 backup strategy:
"A 3-2-1 strategy means having at least 3 total copies of your data, 2 of which are local but on different mediums (read: devices), and at least 1 copy offsite".
I do an extensive spring cleaning atleast once a year where i will first go through everything and delete unimportant stuff. Then I will organize everything into folders and begin a new cycle of just downloading everything to one big and messy folder. Rinse and repeat every year.
I've been thinking about getting a NAS, but the price concerns me. It would also need to have full disk encryption, something that i have no idea if consumer grade equipment has.

I can only say,holy fuck you're paranoic as fuck.
Porn.
I specifically subscribe for Porn sites every so often and just as download everything I can get off of them.
Then I throw it on my server and cancel it.
>>52212312
That's nothing. I keep pairs of internal drives so that everything can be backed up. From there everything is sent to my server in case the computer is stolen. I keep two large externals that both contain the same back-ups. That way if the house burns down I can grab them and at least one of them should function properly.

i like having high quality media available at home. no need for streaming, physical media or other annoying shit. just access my collection over smb/ftp/plex or whatever.
building a collection and putting together the hardware and software is also a lot of fun.

>>52213803
Having so much fucking backups.
A normal man would simply have one backup on a brand new HDD,and be done with it.
And if you're the same anon,at least get one 6TB WD Black HDD. It's much cleaner than having 3 1TB drives and one 3TB drive.
Seriously,here's a pic of a 6TB drive. You can get two if you like the load of cache it has. (128MB)
>>52214019
>Having so much fucking backups
One local and one remote backup doesn't sound that much.
>at least get one 6TB
If you're buying now, sure. But when you have old smaller drives around you don't just throw them away.
(not that guy, btw)
>>52214019
I don't trust drives over 1TB
>>52214100
In his case,they're 3 local (2x 1TB and 1x 3TB) and one remote.
Seriously,if he wanted that much of a space,he could just have got a fast 6TB WD Black (pictured above),and use that.
As for older drives,a RAID array for capture card recordings.
>>52214245
And why don't you trust them?I've seen them being used a lot,especially on surveillance systems,and 2TB drives often end up in old original Xboxes with SATA-IDE adapters. And sell for pretty good prices,about $200-$300.
>>52214273
>In his case,they're 3 local
He said 3 total copies of your data, which should include the original.
>>52214273
Multiple platters are bad juju.
>>52211032

>>52214310
And why the hell would someone need THREE copies?
Even if I backup stuff,I only back it up once on ONE drive,and be done with it.
And another aspect that triggers my autism,is encrypting the drives. Holy fuck,do you even think NSA or any government agency would even care to give the slightest fucking shit about your porn? Like really,I could guess there is a lot of people having porn on their HDD,but nobody is that turbo-paranoid to fucking encrypt their drive.
>>52214345
Let me guess,you never used a MFM HDD?
>>52214439
>Seagate
REEEEEEEE
But really are multiple TB HDD more reliable now? Maybe I'll get a 6gig black and give my wife access to the 1TB to distract her from all the porn I put on the 6TB.
>>52214439
>And why the hell would someone need THREE copies?
One local backup because it's handy and fast.
And a remote backup in case of house burning down/thieves etc.
Seriously, it's perfectly reasonable.
>And another aspect that triggers my autism,is encrypting the drives.
It's not like it takes a lot of time to type in a password, so why not? It's pretty much a negligible amount of effort.
>>52214521
The HGST 4TB are very reliable and have the lowest failure rates on the market.
>>52214521
>are multiple TB HDD more reliable now
They are,as long as you avoid some of the blue WDs,since they just recently incorporated 5400RPM Green drives into the blue line (they discontinued green line)
Also,just for laughs,but I once got a Excelstor 80GB IDE HDD on my hands.And suddenly,I feel old. It died tho,and was replaced by a fresh-formatted 60GB Maxtor 5400RPM drive.
>>52214577
>And a remote backup in case of house burning down/thieves etc.
Or simply a big drive with lots of partitions,that you can keep all the time in a safe place. It's that simple,and I find this more reasonable than having a load of drives.
As for passwords,again,do you honestly think any government agency would care about your porn?I wouldn't be worried unless you have illegal stuff in there. But in most cases,nobody has illegal porn stored on their drives. That's why encrypting drives seems a load of bullshit to me.
>>52214634
>a safe place
Good for you if you have such a place at home.
Storing data remotely is easy as fuck though, so why not?
>do you honestly think any government agency would care about your porn?
1. I never even mentioned gov. agencies.
2. People do have private stuff that they want to hide from whoever. It's very common.
>>52214634
Damn. I just got a 1TB blue, but it's 7200 so I guess I'm okay. I should keep up with HDDs more often. I rarely buy them.
I'm trying to get into data hoarding. I can't entirely afford to be a big time hoarder due to my 15 MBPS internet and lack of money. I have 5 TB right now I am working on filling up and I just bought a 64 GB flash drive to transfer data from my laptop to my desktop.
Also, first post from my new (and first ever) mechanical keyboard! Click click clack clack
>>52210863
>What do you archive?
Anime, Movies, TV shows, Porn, Music.
>Why do you archive?
Availability. It's sorted in the folder so I know exactly where I can find it, instead of having to search for a long time on the web to find what I want, and it's usually in shitty quality (720p) on streaming sites.
Bookmarks are pretty dumb. The stuff I watch usually gets removed from sites a lot due to copyright issues, so why not just save it so you can keep the content permanently?
>How do you archive? Any guidelines you follow?
I torrent 95% of my content. My porn and music are downloaded straight onto my computer's HDD, while the rest is stored by a harddrive connected to my raspberry pi, which seeds 24/7.
For videos I usually never download in anything less than 1080p. My monitors are 1080p, so why would I watch anything with shitty quality when storage space isn't a problem?
>>52212228
>truecrypt, diskcryptor or bitlocker
what are you doing
>>52214310
he also said that one of those three copies should be remote, so that's what he did:
1 local original
2 local copy
1 remote copy
>>52214696
>2. People do have private stuff that they want to hide from whoever. It's very common.
My way to do that is store them in a weird folder nobody would look in:
e.g. I stored a near-lewd wallpaper of Ryuko Matoi in C:\Windows\System32\en-us\Licenses. Nobody would ever access the folder,being that deep into windows.
>Storing data remotely is easy as fuck though, so why not?
What if the server hosting your files fails,eh? Thought of that?
>>52214884
>What if the server hosting your files fails,eh? Thought of that?
he used his own hard drive, in a different location
>>52214884
>What if the server hosting your files fails,eh?
That's exactly why you have both a local and a remote backup.
>>52212715
shall not be infringed faggot
>>52214933
Actually,that's why I wouldn't trust having both - I'd rather have two local.
>>52214923
In that case,it still isn't 100% viable. The HDD could happen to fail.
Again,it would be more viable to have all backups local,just that they're stored in a dry impermeable enclosure,and then the enclosure to be stored in a safe place of his choice.
>>52215042
>the HDD could happen to fail.
at which point he buys a new one and restores it with the two local ones, or the original
what benefit is there to be had from putting that third hdd local instead of remote?
What is the best way of storing and accessing thousands of those 4chan images? The least strenuous for hdd, not taking unnecessary space due to wrong cluster size et cetera.
>>52215069
>what benefit is there to be had from putting that third hdd local instead of remote?
He could anytime upgrade it.
And anyways,HDDs are,in consequence,mechanical. He wouldn't have to worry if he used 6 1TB SSDs. Faster read/write times,and a considerably larger lifespan than HDDs.

this is why you keep offsite backups. never, ever keep everything in one place.

>So what you're saying is that all backups should be offsite?
no, i'm saying you should have backups in at least two different locations, in case one is hit by a disaster (fire, flooding).
Priority one has always been my music along side my work.
As well as for *cough*pirated*cough* Movies.
Been archiving for almost 5 years now, ran out of HD space that I bought another 1TB, also running out of space for that one as well.
As for a method, I've been thinking lately about writing my own batch script to move new data from one folder to the HD every 1,5 day and organize them depending on date and Type into sub folders.
Including 150GB of porn not pictured, 4.9TB. (New Folder = porn)
It's a fucking mess. I can't wait until I can afford a decent RAIDZ2 setup.
At least Plex makes streaming it easy.
The nearing 1tb of anime I own
>>52210863
I copy all my shitty 1s and 0s once a month to an external 1tb drive I never use
What's the best way to backup large amounts of data? I'm talking +6 TB. It's easy to backup that data if the drives are mounted as separate drives, but I don't know what I'd do if they were mounted as RAID or similar.
>HP microserver gen8
>Xeon E3 1240v2
>16gb ECC ram
>4 x 4TB WD Red
>2x 5TB Toshiba drives USB3

Drives are mirrored so ~13TB usable storage but planning on expanding.
Centralised backups, shitload of porn, shitload of movies, TV series and music, Plex, ftp/smb server, qbitorrent and a fuckload of NEF files.
>>52216241
Either split the data amongst different drives, span the drives or RAID.
>>52210863
>what do you archive
Everything. If I download it I usually keep it.
>why do you archive?

>>52216433

>>52216447

>>52216482
I would set up an intricate system of backups and stuff if it weren't all just media crap that I can easily replace.
>>52216538
If you have friends or family with a half decent internet connection just hook up a small nas drive with 1 or 2 drive bays for important shit and sync every night or so.
>>52216399
how do you make backups from that? just on the seperate toshiba drives?
>>52212715
Fuck off, queer. You should have died in the Bataclan.
What do you guise recommend to keep my ftp setver and local folders synchronised?
>>52216670
Two of the 4tb drives are mirrored onto the other two, same with the 5tb drives.
They're not in a RAID though, I aync them manually with freefilesync. That way if anything happens to the machines I can just drop the required drive into a different PC or external enclosure.
Planning on buying another one with 4-6tb drives as a dedicated backup server for the other one. You can buy one for £160 which is cheap as fuck for what it is.

information resources and software mostly for old enterprise/UNIX shit
doesn't need a lot of space so I can get by with a couple 1TB drives

>Fair enough I might give it a test. I wouldn't use raid 5/6 anyway but I keep hearing its not finished so I've never looked into it.
Pretty much sums up the PR for btrfs. Everyone got told it wasn't finished so nobody uses it for production.

Or just post some magnet like

yeah i know man they tend to be worse on music though that shit will get you banned before you have even uploaded it

What about ReFS? Is it even worth looking at?
lol i think im in a bad place.
i have 4 external hdd's atm 1 2TB, 2 1.5TB, and 500GB in addition to my 500gb internal.
mostly anime and movies i picked up while in the military to keep boredom away. Havent been able to buy dvd's since i got out they take up too much space.

>ReFS
Someone suggested it to me and I actually considered using a MS product for storage (this is a horrible idea never do it btw). A week later the person who recommended it to me lost their whole dataset to corruption. I avoid MS filesystems like the plague.

>Hard-to-find porn (retired pornstars, random amateur vids that I really liked, unsourceables...)
>torrented games (those unfindables, those too big to be redownloaded, those freqeuntly needed for LANs)
>Specific music albums
>All folders from abandoned project
The most important thing is that I make backups by transferring all the content from the old hard disk into the newer one as one folder, so you can actually navigate up to the content from my first HDD just like you would cut a tree and count the circles to check its age.

i've been using btrfs on top dm-crypt/luks on top of mdadm raid 6 for around a year now. 35T+ of data.
had to rebuild the raid twice because of drive failures, but no problems with btrfs.
>>52221394
Yeah I've not heard amazing things. Just thought Microsoft maybe got their shit together and is replacing ntfs.

Memes
>>52210863
Not even a question.
I collect these fuckers like trading cards.
I remember times when i had to bite my hat because i wanted to watch something but couldn't because it's gone online or i didn't remember the site.
Won't happen again! Now i have dominion over every file i have a sentimental worth attached to.

All my school work since middle school up to date which is 5th year in my career.
Also all the Hentai manga I liked because I knew it was gonna disappear from the net one day. And I was right, shit is getting deleted left and right.
>>52210863
>What do you archive?
Dank memes and horse porn
I have a 4tb hdd for nearly every type of media. I hoard manga, anime, TV shows, movies, but by far and away, the thing occupying most of my frankenstorage is porn. I have 3 4tb for each one as well as all my old <4tb drives reserved for porn, and its spilling over onto all the less occupied drives as well, like my manga drive. I just bought a new external 4tb for more porn too
I'll probably never get around to viewing it all either, but my philosophy is that if it makes my penis so much as tingle, I'll download it. Fortunately, I'm kind of picky but still
nothing anymore
it's all shit
I like saving ASMR videos
especially because there are plenty of girls who were known to have channels and then later delete them
I'm sure I have a few unpopular channels that have been wiped which nobody bothered saving
>>52224146
>ASMR videos
i never got the appeal of these care to explain?
>>52224213
They're relaxing, good for concentration. (not op)
>>52224213
it's relaxing, through hearing sounds
the same way rain is relaxing, a crackling fire, hearing someone quietly bustling in the other room, or maybe hearing someone walk down a quite hallway, any soft rhythmic/taping sound really
personal attention videos are kinda related because they simulate, at the very least audibly, the relaxation sensation of receiving personal attention irl, (haircuts, massages, being touched/tickled ect)
Anime, Porn, and other shit
Anime is in RSRV
Others is in MISC
Porn...doesn't have a place yet....
>>52223456
I hope for your sake you have your porn saved in a RAID array and at least one off-site backup. The thought of 4 tb of porn being gone with a dead drive hurts me.
