    Just a heads up, trying to buy Uranium for the reactor on Ebay will get you in trouble real fast, so be careful!

      Everyone knows you need to harvest it from smoke detectors like the Nuclear Eagle Scout did.

        David Charles Hahn (October 30, 1976 – September 27, 2016), sometimes called the “Radioactive Boy Scout” and the “Nuclear Boy Scout” was an American nuclear radiation enthusiast who built a homemade neutron source at the age of seventeen.

        Sad read, poor guy.

        Never thought I’d read someone:

        attained Eagle Scout rank shortly after his lab was dismantled.

      You just need your mom to date someone that works at a secret government base, “borrow” their badge, swap the uranium with dish soap, and good to go.

  Would something that can switch on and off the drives as needed be bad for them? A small bit of lag could be worth it if they really would take that much to power

    Drives do this on their own.

      And RAID hardware and software do too - this can be a problem with some drives (I always forget which ones, WD black? Or is it the reds? I’m almost positive Greens are not recommended for RAID arrays)
