Why not store your data in the cloud? Microsoft already has full access to it anyway.

No it doesn't. My internet connection is only symmetric 512Kbps. It wouldn't go outside without my knowledge.
>>54362426
>network shares
I prefer keeping everything local.
Though I will probably set up a NAS soon just so I have some more space without investing in higher density drives for my PC.

Just using the stock disk, don't need much space
>>54362536
Meh, I like new tech and M.2 drives are the newest shit. Might as well have one as the boot drive.
Also, it's nice having an SSD on the motherboard, no need to fuck with cable management.

Are you one of those people who streams every bit of data from the "cloud"? Y'all are crazy. I have about 2000 local songs on my Desktop so I don't need internet connectivity just to hear music. It's just a waste of bandwidth yoooo

Are those BitLocker "encrypted" drives?
>>54362704
how dare you yoooo
>>54362719
Yes desu. You got a problem with that?
I'm not gonna open TC/VC manager everytime I dock my laptop, pick drive to mount and type a 64digit password like a retard. Bitlocker is much simpler in use.

I'd love a decently fast nvme drive for epeen but my mobo caps the m.2 link to 10gbps (i.e., x2) and there's no real improvement over a decent sata drive at any rate

>osu ssd meme
Wait what, does this work?
I mean of course it does but is there a performance gain from having osu installed on your OS main ssd to having it on another dedicated ssd?
>>54362946
Can you be a bit more specific?
>>54363000
Are you trying to say I should only mount to folders in / ? It's also neither a temporary mount, nor a removable device.
>>54363026
It takes around 30 seconds to process 31k beatmaps, but apart from that there isnt much benifit
>>54363051
/mount is what you are looking for...
e.g. /mount/data or /mount/music or /media/movies or /media/porn
>>54362779
What kind of speeds do you expect to get? Because i had Storage Spaces with the below and a 1Gb link. I couldn't grt storage spaces to copy over more than 20MB/s.
4x WD Red 2Tb
2x Samsung 840 Pros 256Gb
>>54363052
But why a dedicated ssd instead of only using the main OS ssd? Or is that a partition?
Meh.
>>54363096
Forgot to mention, I had the SSDs as caching for the setup.
Everything I read said Storage Spaces sucked for performance though.
>>54363094
The manpage clearly states /mnt is for temporary mounts only.
Should I mount it there and create symlinks to my home folder instead?
>>54362426
I've got a question about hard drives. I have a WD Caviar Black. A few months ago I put my system in a new case. My HDD temp went up 5c to 40c. Didn't think too much about it.
Last week I bought a new HDD, same make and model of old one. Installed in same slot, moved old one down 2 slots. New one is 35c, just like old one was in old case. Old one is still 40c even in lower slot.
So my question is, do HDDs just run warmer with age? Or did I fuck something up when moving it over to cause it to run 5c warmer?
>>54363155
Do you know what temporary means?
Since it's a 3.7TB partition you're mounting, I highly doubt that it's temporary.
Don't get fooled by the "removable" description of /media...
>>54363191
40C dg is just fine. Don't worry.
>>54363096
> Network
I'm able to saturate a bonded gig-e link (2x). Storage Spaces doesn't do well with small pools though. I'm at about the bare minimum of what I'd like to be for pool size. At work I maintain larger pools (30+ disks) and it helps. A lot.
> Local
I don't really notice any issues, and the applications don't complain about queue length.
D & G are partitions of the same drive. It's also further partitioned for dualboot, which you can't see for obvious reasons. It's a 1TB drive and I just ordered another one.
>>54363200
I think that was a misunderstanding. When you said /mount I thought you meant /mnt.
So what you're saying is I should use /media in order to conform with the Unix file hierarchy standard?
>>54363282
Sure, and don't use symlinks, that's silly
>>54363203
I know that 40 is fine, just wondering if the temp rise is due to it getting old, or me fucking something up moving it. Considering the new one has the temp the old one used to have.
