Good afternoon all, I have half-assed my backups for 15 years, and it is not sustainable, and I need your help! I have the following setup: 1x Raspberry Pi 4 with a WD USB3 MyBook 4TB as a NAS target using OpenMediaVault. This works well enough, but is not in my mind a long term viable solution. 1x Apple Airport TimeCapsule...
Using Archive.org doesn’t work on medium posts and ideally I want to archive every post. The blog I’m trying to archive is itsairborne.com in case the posts go down. Googling how to backup medium posts only gives me articles on how to do it if it were my blog. I found this extension called Monolith of Web that allows you to...

I’m having a hard time figuring out what case I want to get. Part of me thinks hot swap bays would be nice (I’ve had a drive failure and figuring out which one would have been 10x easier with hot swap). Of course in the future I’ll have labels with S/N on the drives so it’s easier to find the drive....
I’m looking for a data archive of corporation ownership networks. For example, Alphabet owns Google, … and some metadata like when they are created/owned by Alphabet if possible. I was made aware of OpenCorporates but it doesn’t seem to have such data as far as I tried....

My old laptop died so I took the SSD from it in hope to use it as external drive. I wanted to just overwrite it with dd for security but I decided to go with f3 as that would also give me the opportunity to test the drive. Sadly, bad results came back...

Anyone have thoughts about backblaze?...
Another lawsuit against Internet archive sigh
This is really cool, I have never heard of dual actuator drives before.
Wanted to share my “even my 8 TB hard drive isn’t enough” solution....
I shared major music releases and dumps on the Datahoarder subreddit in the past. Just got a notification that Deep Elm Records will have 280+ albums available for free for 48 hours on Bandcamp on July 6 and 7th. Total value will be around $1500 of music. FLAC, WAV, AIFF and your usual lossy formats like mp3 will be available....
The more that content on the web is “locked down” with more stringent API requests and identity verification, e.g. Twitter, the more I wonder if I should be archiving every single HTTP request my browser makes. Or, rather, I wonder if in the future there will be an Archive Team style decentralized network of hoarders who, as...
On the Internet Archive you can get a few different alpha versions of the game Outer Wilds, and a demo version too. But there’s an older version that I can’t seem to find anywhere....
