Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

For hard drives I'd never trust them used with data I care about. Especially big drives like that that would take AGES to rebuild.
For enterprise grade SSDs I'd kinda yolo it for a system I care a bit less for, or as a cache drive. But not HDDs.
What if you can do a 2 or 3 disk redundancy?
The biggest fear would be when you’re rebuilding, you’re putting extra stress on the other drives, thereby increasing the risk of them, too, dying.
I suppose using mirror vdevs technically also puts stress on drives during rebuilding, however it should be significantly less than on drives in RAIDz.
