And with production run I mean produced at the same charge or the like. As those have a higher chance of failure. If you buy two new from the same shop, odds are that they came in the same shipment etc.

The downside is they are more expensive, the louder part is for big servers I think, but not HDDs

And yes, I was talking about used ones, sometimes they’ve got the SMART values listed, sometimes I ask

I’d go for the second option. Just make sure they are not from the same production run with similar history (operating hours) as it would increase the chance of both failing at the same time.

You can also check eBay for enterprise HDDs with 90+ remaining SMART values. They are far cheaper than new and usually fine.

They’re right here in the shelf :-)

They don’t log, at least not to my knowledge, they aren’t part of the OS.

They are behind an opnsense, but the broken one is not reachable from inside the network as well and the other one is reachable from outside perfectly fine

I’m on calibre web automated but I’m looking to migrate away. Gets tons of features that I’m not using and I can’t keep up with. Also the slop release notes are barely readable. I put up an issue for that, not sure if it’s gonna help.

I just add a book via the web interface now and then and later download it via OPDS. Probably giving Booklore a try.
