I’m recognising a pattern, specifically now. Whenever I try download a torrent of a larger file size (in this case, about 100GiB), the torrent download speed randomly always drops to like 1kb/s or less…like indefinitely. It’s not a seeding issue - there are hundreds/thousands of seeders for this specific torrent. It’s not an internet issue (speed tested, download maxes set, other torrents download fine, etc). What could be the problem?

• Ho attivato da poco una connessione a 2.5 Gigabit e viaggio MASSIMO fra i 700/800 di download il che non è un po troppo basso? potrebbe dipendere dalla scheda di rete del mio pc che ha 12 anni?

• Senza Mullvad viaggio a questa velocità:

• Con Mullvad attivato senza DAITA e Multihop viaggio a questa velocità:

Premetto che attivo sempre i server vicino a casa mia e che ora sto viaggiando molto più veloce del normale perche di solito scendo anche sotto i 200 in download, quindi è normale che viaggi cosi lento?

I am in the UK so the default server I connect to is a server there as it gives me the best speeds.

Due to the age verification laws that were implemented in the UK recently I have to manually switch to Ireland server to bypass this. This quite tedious if I do it many times throughout the day.

I wish for a faster way to switch locations in terms of different countries. Would be nice to have a favourites feature so there is one less button to press and no more scrolling.

I have shamelessly collected 35,000 pictures of various things (articles, news, artwork, irl pics, memes, etc. etc.) and I'm hoping to organize them over the next couple weeks. I know there's facial recognition software to sort pics, but is there anything for distinguishing memes vs article screenshots (they are very visually distinct) vs art, and so on?

Doesn't have to be anywhere 100% accurate, but it would definitely cut the time organizing it when I go back to manually sort them. Tried and true methods?

Highly appreciate any ideas

What do you think is the best option?

Wd 5tb is only $5 more expensive.

Anyone have any insights on how to get those 30-60gb drives cheap? No not steal. I’d be fine with 6 of the the 15.xx drives for raid6 with +/-40TB available. I’d love to get off spinning drives. Unfortunately everything is see is crazy expensive. As much as I like the speed I could live with not the fastest throughput (for SSD) I just want the low latency and hopefully if ever I have to rebuild an array speed during that seems critical. My current “issues” if they are that there’s about 4hrs a day when maintenance tasks run that the drives are pegged. It’s 4hrs because I’ve said that’s the window so there’s likely tasks going incomplete.

I’d like to do this for less than the price of a decent car 😳

i preety sure my 4 core, 8 gb, 128 gb disk vps will sufficient /s. really is that event possible, i really need offline recipe catalog and kiwix libray lets just say not sufficient enough for me.

So I recently moved from a Synology DS918+ with 32tb raw in SHR1 to a much more substantial machine with 2 x 10TB SATA zfs mirrors as my “fastpool” and 8x16tb SAS in a RAIDZ1 as my “slowpool” (plus lots of compute, plus NVME mirrors for databases, plus SATA SSD mirrors for containers).

But I need to find a much lower cost way than I’m currently doing. I need to get started on a JBOD approach with enough bays that I can buy inexpensive disks. But it also needs to live in “living space”, so it can’t be a rackmount 2U “screamer”. Maybe someday I can move to a real rackmount approach and get a 60-bay enclosure and populate with a bunch of 4TB drives (or maybe 8TB drives will be just as cheap by that point). But not today. And I’m not scrappy enough to do a full unraid “just get whatever and stick it in a box” - I’m probably going to stick with ZFS for now. So what’s my play? Are there any “quiet/small” rack mount boxes? Are there any desktop boxes that have real bay capacity? Where do you get drives that are reliable enough when you’re buying in bulk - are there “annual sales” or anything?

I need guidance so I can join you all.

Thanks.
