Just keep buying bigger drives, copy the old stuff forward, keep like 3 sets and... who cares?

now running an always-online raid server? nah.



I did hit an issue where 20TB drives require substantial (2A) current when they first spin up, but other than that, that's the plan.


Drive prices aren't coming down as quickly as they used to.
