Hi all, I’m wondering if anyone can provide information around dedicated disk / setup, what counts as a dedicated disk / what doesn’t changes needed to the docker run? can be implemented on already running nodes not having dedicated disk enabled ? can dedicated disk be reversed? Pros/Cons … T…

These lines: # use whole disk storage2.monitor.dedicated-disk: true # how much size to reserve as always free storage2.monitor.reserved-bytes: 25 GB Payout calculation still works. It is still one drive per node as the node is determining the drive it is using from the data directory path. And u…

Those 666 Linux nodes look suspicious. :smiling_face_with_horns: Pi-es are the tool of the D… :rofl:

Because some using hacks to update themselves. Are half of the Windows users using hacks to update themselves? It’s not that it’s impossible, it’s just that Windows is supposedly the largest subsection of users, and while I’m a bit worried of stepping on someones toes, I’d also wager that it’s th…

I hesitate to derail a good argument… but do you think we could have a Linux riscv build in a few years? It seems to be growing fast: I can easily imagine storage appliances starting to ship with it. Today there are only a handful of SBC vendors if you wanted to try it in your homelab… but some day…

[image] arrogantrabbit: A mistake is to consider macOS a Lamborghini. I mean with [image] arrogantrabbit: macOS is not a standalone OS – you can’t install it on your own hardware, its’ tightly integrated with hardware, drivers, firmware, and services, a lot of hardware was designed to wo…

[image] Alexey: I do not think that macbook is designed as a server. So I still feel not comfortable to use a laptop as a server Of course it isn’t: [image] arrogantrabbit: Darwin should not be in the picture at all. There are no macOS servers anymore. It’s a desktop OS. Xserve is dead l…

You may enable this on NTFS, as well on ZFS. Just didn’t get a point, why?

As @arrogantrabbit said [image] arrogantrabbit: this is all a proxy to the actual numbers anyway. These numbers reflect the number of downloads; some nodes may download the same binary multiple times. Since most nodes use storagenode-updater, it’s safe to assume these numbers represent ranki…

It’s a long time ago, when hard drives where very expensive. I remember it using a lot of base memory, which made it difficult to run many different software titles. It was incompatible with some software - databases. Many just couldn’t run due to not enough base memory. There where constant loc…

Yes, I passed through this (I’m in IT since 1989). I mean - why is it important or relevant now?

The fact that modern AM4 systems take up to 128GB of RAM, and AM5 hits 256GB is practically a miracle. Those are consumer platforms!!!1! Computers these days are amazing
