      Get to acquiring Seagate external HDDs and shucking them for your own 3.5" drive bays before the data centers get them

      I’m building my first Linux setup and have a NAS planned out. I’m so stoked. I got a raspberry pi kit from my dad as an Xmas gift yesterday.

        I also used a raspberry pi (5). People here will advise against it but for me it’s been working fine so far. I can stream 4K with Jellyfin on my local network just fine. Read/write speeds aren’t great but good enough for me. I used a Pi hat with 5x SATA ports and I have 5x 8TB HDDs in a custom 3D printed enclosure and I’m using ZFS RAID z1. No complaints yet.

    Moved to Tidal. Reviews from some tech-site said “It’s like Spotify 10 years ago.” as if that’s a bad thing.

    Loving the FLAC quality and non-enshittification.

    How many full seeds are there? I mean how many could there be? Who has 300 Tb to throw at this?

      On their torrent page it’s explained more but it’s broken up into many many torrents and you basically say how much space you’re willing to host and it generates one with the least seeded “blob”.

      I don’t really know how that would work on the back end but it seems technically impressive.

      Given some of the collections I’ve seen on private trackers I’d say there is going to be quite a few seeding this in its entirety.

        You mean if they wipe their collection to make space. Private sites probably have better quality than Spotify.

          No im saying they have so much storage I could see them having space to seed this.

    I know, I read about this news, but nowhere did I find this torrent file that they are talking about, do you know where they sent it to what site, and if this is just for the sake of information, do I condemn piracy?🧐

    I have 3gb of space to share. Are there 150 other people like me that want to do some distributed hosting? What technology can handle this?

      No.

      Not everything got torrented after music streamers came into prominence. (Though chances are pretty good you could rip an MP3 off Youtube for whatever you’re looking for.)

    Was there really much content on it that wasn’t already available in a torrent somewhere already?

      I would be very surprised if it wasn’t, at best it’s stuff no one bothered with and somehow I expect that won’t get torrented much either.
