      @scottalanmiller That gives new meaning to Plum/Prune juice being the drink of a warrior.

      Prune (meaning plum and pronounced prune-eh) is the national fruit of Romania and Tuica is the national drink. You drink if before every meal. EVERY meal.

        Must be a very ... regular... tradition.

          So it's the Canadian pronunciation... eh?

            oh my... Know this one from a vacation in the Czech Republic, isn't that far away from Romania. As far as I remember it just doesn't taste much like alcohol at all, and that is dangerous 😉

              @thwr oh no, this TASTES like alcohol. It BURNS.

              I'm drinking the one in the picture right now. I'm friends with the distiller, too.

                Must be something similar then. TBH, I don't know much from that evening anymore, nor does anyone else who was with me 😉

                          This thread is a great example of RAID 6 rebuild risks. 11 days and many more projected before the rebuild is complete. Not that large of an array, either.

                            @scottalanmiller Never knew that with RAID6. Good to know in future

                              We've seen rebuilds go into MONTHS before!

                                @scottalanmiller well, that depends on a few factors. One of my systems is running a RAID 60. A stripe over 5 stacks of 6 disks in RAID 6. Don't ask why, it's there for a reason.

                                Anyway, each disk is 1TB NL-SAS @ 7.2k RPM. Rebuilding a failed disk in a stack takes roughly 16 to 20 hours.

                                  Only six disks, that's pretty small.

                                      Playing Grey Cubes on Steam ... so much more entertaining than the last hour of work. Best dollar I've spent in a while.

                                        After much deliberation and pondering, I selected a new GPU yesterday (I'll get the other parts later).
                                        AND IT'S HERE!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
                                        MSI GTX 960 2GB Gaming Edition

                                        Only 8 hours to go before I get to go home, and about 12 before I get to install it 😞
                                        Most importantly, it's here 🙂 🙂 !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!!

                                        And this is the last anyone will hear from @nadnerB for a week or three heheh

                                        Mrs nadnerB said I still needed to go to work 😞

                                        😛

                                            Well, that was a tradeoff. Couldn't afford the spindles for RAID 10. Using this setup, you're only loosing 1/3 of the capacity while having at least a bit of write performance. Plus, rebuild time and risk is acceptable.
