There’s a reason you don’t do things like that…
Apparently nobody in that software team has heard about Knight Capital. They reused a flag and that coupled with a deployment failure that only lasted ~45 minutes caused an over 400 million dollar loss nearly bankrupting the entire company. Ultimately they ended up combining with another company.
The immediate cause of the incident was a deployment failure that left one of eight servers running outdated code, creating an inconsistency in how the system interpreted incoming instructions. The new software reused a flag associated with a legacy function known as “Power Peg,” which had been disabled but not removed from the codebase, and on the unpatched server this flag activated obsolete logic that continuously generated child orders in response to parent orders that the system did not correctly recognize as already filled.

The LG drive in my photo(looks like the top drive on yours) can take custom firmware that allows them to be region free and add the ability to rip 4K disks. Can’t actually play them as that requires decryption chips to be in the drive but it makes for a MUCH cheaper 4k ripping drive than a true 4k drive.

I own over 4k titles in physical copies. So probably closer to 5-6k discs. As the other person said…backups. I’ve already found a few degraded discs as I’ve been working through.
Pretty much everything in the basement is some variant of linux. Couple more boxes(not pictured) higher in the rack that are just recycled desktops in rack mount cases. Some of the other stuff is windows because of the software being used. I use Mac stuff at work cause that’s what they provide. I don’t really care what OS. I just need it to work and the quickest way for me to get whatever it is done. I’ll reformat stuff to whatever when this project is done and I move on to the next.

That is what it is. My older CyberPower unit is down below. Was just easier to manage it all from one place. Need to repurpose that or sell it off…
The screens work fine with the stickers on. Never saw the point in peeling them off.
