schestowitz-TRrandom question Jun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRsay you have old ssd (2016)Jun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRit has been used more than recommended (hi! ;-) )Jun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRand you can keep it 60% unused or 40% unused in the storage senseJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRwould that make a difference for longevityJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TR?Jun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRI am trying to clear up space on it to extend the lifeJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRthough it mostly stores videos for processingJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRI'm migrating those videos to "bubu" and external HDD at the momentJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TR*bubiJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRside note: last night I rsynched the pi's /home acrossJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRI wasnted to experient with new kernel for wlan1 and iptablesJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRchanged my mind midway as it was not worth the risk of not being able to boot at allJun 05 08:54
schestowitz-TRI am waitinf for a kernel update to maybe fix that,, I check almost every dayJun 05 08:54

Techrights-secI'm not srure but I have read that underprovissioning the partitions, so that Jun 05 09:34
Techrights-secone unused partition is large, may be a way to compensate for reduced capacity Jun 05 09:34
schestowitz-TRthanks.Jun 05 09:37
schestowitz-TRI just wondered about theresholds and I assume that storage type matters as well, depending on allocation and accessJun 05 09:37
schestowitz-TRalgorith/smechanicsJun 05 09:37
schestowitz-TRvonick is now about 50% unusedJun 05 09:37
schestowitz-TRI want to tidy up backup routinesJun 05 09:37
schestowitz-TRbtw, rianne now works with 3 computersJun 05 09:37
schestowitz-TRI'm frustrated with the state of hardware put on offer these daysJun 05 09:38
schestowitz-TRranted a bit in IRCJun 05 09:38
schestowitz-TRwe also talked about port types, DRM, and logevityJun 05 09:38
schestowitz-TRthings are not made to lastJun 05 09:38
schestowitz-TRand they call it "progress"Jun 05 09:38
schestowitz-TROTAJun 05 09:38
Techrights-secpartition was the wrong word, unallocated space would be correct instead Jun 05 10:21
schestowitz-TRthanks, I did wonder about the use of that work/termJun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRas if, would unallocated space be of any difference?Jun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRas I see it, unpartitioned blocks would not be available to the system at all, for redundancyJun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRassuming it allocates fixed sectors or range of sectors to each partition, strictlyJun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRI am trying to organise things here this past weekJun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRas it looks like as soon as next month I'll have more timeJun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRI've not had this much spare time since decades agoJun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRmaybe partly because news too is "slow"Jun 05 10:25
schestowitz-TRbtew, no "other links" yet for today, based on the automated checker Jun 05 10:25
schestowitztoday we cover upc, spwat, and strategyJun 05 10:32
schestowitzI also explain we should focus on ideas/concept as much as on brandsJun 05 10:32
