I'm using this as well and came in to recommend it. One machine is thunderbolt to DP. One is DP to DP. Both Windows machines and both work well. I used this cable https://a.co/d/diTREUK however I'd look for a higher DP/thunderbolt revision now.

If you're into a little bit of horror and humor, check out 'You will die here tonight". It's a survival story indie game my buddy released last year.

That's a really great idea. I know at least 2 of the drives are from the same batch so it would be good to rotate things in and out. Thanks!

Start googling. Hardware or Software based? How techy are you? RAID should not be considered for backup. Think of it as an individual drive. Still needs a backup. Personally I use a ZFS pool in my Linux homelab that's been rock solid. However the pucker factor would be high if a drive fails.

1. Depends on how you set them up. There are calculators online that can estimate this for you.

2. I used NAS drives bc they're expected to be spinning a lot.

3. No. You will see better performance on average compared to your slowest drive.

4. I have no relevant experience with specific hardware. For a general base of knowledge figure out what RAID type you want to use. Look at what ZFS or btrfs can do in this space. Same for unraid.

Admittedly it's been awhile since I've raw dogged the Internet. I'm traveling without my usual pihole. How does anyone do without ad blockers? Reading that was like trying to read an article surrounded by times square billboards. "Support our journalism, turn off your add blocker". My ass

Get a chargie! (Chargie.org). I can't recommend this thing highly enough. It's a small Bluetooth device that sits between your phone and the charger. When your battery hits a set % it will shut off the power.

I've used one since I got my pixel 7 pro. Accurately says the battery health is still 98% after 14 months.

I literally sent a message right before posting.

Spoiler - it's working again. Might be teething problems for a new service.
