how about $50 off a jbod?

I needed more storage but SSD’s and normal Hard Drives are expensive.
It’s £190 for a 4TB IronWolf HDD
It’s £300-500 for a 4TB SSD!
So instead I spent £550 on used 60TB JBOD Server instead.
That’s £9.16 per TERABYTE.

Is it bad to hear coil whine from the power brick on your JBOD enclosure?

If a protogen or a synth has a dad bod, is that called a JBOD?

more things should be named like JBOD (just a bunch of disks) or POTS (plain old telephone service) and less things named like "blockchain" and "chatGPT"

![# note to self
before you move, you need to:

You think these servers are JBOD or are they running ZFS?

This was a real way of speeding up load times on DISC based games, because the laser had to physically move to read. That said, you duplicated COMMON assets, not all assets.
Theoretically, 10x dupes could only speed up loads on a JBOD setup *IF* the data ended up on both sides of the JBOD line.

Not me still crashing out about how Helldivers 2 duplicated the entire ~14G asset library TEN TIMES on hard drives because they thought (hilariously, incorrectly) that it would [waving hands] SOMEHOW speed up load times, and then apparently never tested their 140+G of bloat theory 🤦

RAID storage? 1987. The modern JBOD? Early 2000s.
(I was a small part of the team that build the Sun Fire X4500, aka, Thumper. I even put an easter egg in the service console.)

More than that, storage is negligible power use.
Compute is where the watts go.
A JBOD filled with 40+ hard drives is going to be less than 1000watts. Meanwhile, 2 graphics cards performing AI workloads can use that much power non-stop.

Unironically i was recently calling a friend to listen to my backup JBOD because I completely forgot what hard drives sound like.
