I assume you mean automatic deduplication? I haven’t used ZFS, but BTRFS does not have that. There are a variety of ways to perform deduplication, I have duperemove scheduled to run regularly.
If ZFS is still capable of being instructed to perform deduplication when automatic deduplication is turned off, which it really should be able to do, then this should work even with it turned off.

Ah, reminds me of the old self-extracting gzip executable trick. I used that once a very long time ago to make a 4k linux intro, before I realized to be competitive I should switch to windows to be able to use Crinkler, which is superior even though the decompressor is part of the executable.

Ah, so you have compiled it into one file? Didn’t know that was possible for python, what tool do you use for this?
- Comment on introducing copyparty, the FOSS file server 1 day ago:
Hey fellow scener, cool project!
Just a few thoughts/questions:
- BTRFS and ZFS support real deduplication via copy on write, and would eliminate all current disadvantages of symlink and hardlink deduplication. It just works.
- Why have it be one huge python source file? This is a serious code smell imo, and something you really should avoid doing as this can be a major maintenance burden.

To think that Google once had ads that I considered OK, just a bunch of text and links. How times have changed…

Machines will be fine with just one primary DNS server. The main reason for running two is so that you still have one working DNS server if either machine goes down, for example during maintenance.

Here we’ve had quite a rainy summer so far, so there’s been reports of them appearing in large amounts already, which is why I went out looking for them.

- Comment on DietPi is great! 2 weeks ago:
Whether you automate pihole upgrades is separate from whether you automate debian package updates. I recommend at least automatically installing security updates for the OS, unless you want to manually keep track and do this for all your devices.
- Comment on DietPi is great! 2 weeks ago:
A gui is unnecessary for something like pi-hole. As for updates, you can easily automate installation of security updates via unattended-upgrades.

I’m rather confused. I don’t have any app called Gemini installed, but despite this “Hey Google” brings up Gemini. So I have no app to disable, and no way to turn off interaction with other apps. This is on a Samsung A55 in Europe, happily taking advice on how to proceed.

- Comment on Small NAS home server woes 1 month ago:
Thanks for the advice, noted! I was attracted by the compact size, I guess it’s not realistic that it would handle 5 disks…
- Comment on Small NAS home server woes 1 month ago:
Interesting, I’ll investigate this!
- Comment on Small NAS home server woes 1 month ago:
Thanks, the Jonsbo N1 actually has five hotswap bays, and I believe you can squeeze in another 3.5" besides the PSU if you have a small PSU. I’ll consider the N3 but I don’t think it will fit where I have my current NAS so I’ll have to replan a bit.
Yes, I’m thinking about either getting a PCIE SAS HBA to open up the option for SAS drives, or to get an ASM1166 M.2 to 6xSATA.
You’re right that I’ve focused too much on ECC, I think I’ll see it as nice to have more than something I’d prefer to have.
- Comment on Small NAS home server woes 1 month ago:
You’re right, I probably don’t need ECC. I’m mostly worried about bit flips in my important data, and as you say, a checksumming FS and RAID will protect against this while the data is in storage. However, it doesn’t protect against bit flips while copying data, for example copying data to backups - but there are other solutions for this, which I should consider.
Hot swap is nice to have. I haven’t even considered that it wouldn’t be supported by a mobo, I should look into that, thanks. These are the mobos I’m considering for each option:
N100: Topton N100 motherboard, 4x2.5G, 6xSATA, PCIE x1 a.aliexpress.com/_EvVv0k6
8500G: ASRock B650I Lightning WiFi (Gigabyte A620I AX might be an option, but it has only one M.2 slot so the upgradeability is less)
13100: ASRock Z790M-ITX Wifi
The N100 option is cheaper and should be lower power, but as you say I worry about needing another upgrade in a year or so, and this option doesn’t offer much upgradeability so that would mean at least a new mobo and cpu. The other options could accommodate a beefier CPU if needed.
- Comment on Small NAS home server woes 1 month ago:
Yeah, old Xeons tend to not be very low power, also I don’t think I’ll be able to find one with a mini ITX board to fit it in a compact case. Also, I’d probably need to add a discrete GPU, which adds to the cost and power consumption.
I want a low power build to limit heat and noise produced in my office room, to limit the electricity bill and as I understood it the case I’m considering also doesn’t have the best thermals, so I don’t want to put a CPU with too high a TDP into it.
The ReadyNAS 626 actually has a Xeon D-1521, but with a quite low TDP - 45W.
Regarding budget, I’m aiming for 400-800$. The N100 option, including case and PSU (but not disks) is at the lower end of this, while the 8500G and 13100 options are at the upper end.
