This is all assuming it's a spinning disk and not an SSD, so ignore me if that's the case:

Given SAS drives are usually used in data centre storage array applications and 3TB disks have been kinda small for that use case for a fair while, there's a fairly high chance it was in heavy use for a good number of years. I'd bet it's probably well on its way to being a paperweight regardless of your connectivity situation.

If you do get it hooked up, don't store anything on it you wouldn't be okay losing.

I still don't know why this architecture went for a Double XOR as the NOP, I guess they were just flexing that the reference chip design could do both in a single cycle

Equating Linux enthusiasts to offal is a bold move on this site

Plex is probably the easiest and most convenient, I think jellyfin is viable too, but I don't use it.

If you've got the money, Roon or Audirvana are the gold standard of self hosted music

If you want something similar, but free, look into things like volumio or subsonic based solutions.

Unless the SD card is using a Linux filesystem, you won't be able to use Linux access permissions.

Most SD cards are preformatted to FAT or exFAT in order to maximise compatibility. If you don't need to use the card on any non-linux devices you should be able to reformat it and gain the ability to chown/chmod (should go without saying, but back up any data on the card you want to keep before this)

I'm all about this being a new meme template for dad jokes

I gotta wonder if those premiums kept up

If you're into music production, I find Computer Music & Future Music both to be interesting enough to keep me looking at them

Others people have already mentioned in Private Eye & New Scientist
