I did not, but if you want to link it offended page I can give it a whirl.
I’ll link what I think is your page you were viewing and try it here.
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/linux-desktop-environment-face-off
Edit: No change. No odd behavior.
I tried to recreate this in Firefox, but also couldn’t duplicate it.
It’s possible they are trying it out, but I’m also concerned you might have a browser highjacker. Do the links go back to Tom’s Hardware, or do they lead somewhere else?
Hah, if you are near Cincinnati, I have a system with 6 SATA ports I just rebuilt for $30.
Look, if you were looking to have more options handed to you, you are in the right place!
TrueNAS is a great diy option. I have it running on an old box of mine. The one real caveat is that you will need enough hard drive slots (don’t just hang them unless you go full SSD), 4+ SATA ports or add in a SAS card, enough PSU to handle all your drives, and enough memory.
I am running one SAS card and 16 GB of DDR 3. Since the attached image I have taken pics of the serial numbers and labeled the drives.
Pretty sure that gps is a plaintext broadcast. It’s nice because it’s universally accessible, but it’s a target now that people rely on it.
Back in the 90s my head was full of maps of my region because I drove a lot for work. Mobile online GPS is a game changer, since you get traffic updates in real time. While I suppose you could review your route ahead of time, there is not a known way to get relevant traffic updates unless you have a radio station just to that effect.
My real concern for you would be a sudden information blackout.
I hoped this was going to be direct air capture. Then I realized that all the excess gasses would be valuable, and the system would oxidize faster pulling in atmosphere.
I think you identified the issue, in a way. I don’t blame you for wanting to manually install and configure it for understanding purposes, but I can say that hopping straight in to Fedora it seems (mostly) fine. I have had a few weird lockups, but it is far between. Also, as others have griped, drag and drop sucks right now.
I have never seen this one before but I have to disagree.
I think the better answers are already here. It should have had preprinted supports, and the designer may never have thought about actually printing it. 2 halves makes sense.
It’s a shame the raft didn’t work out. If anything, you may still need to print the little gourd separately.
You could flip it over and print it on a raft, but you might get a lot of burrs. Then use tree supports for the gourd-like thing under the neck.
I’m suggesting either using the secure erase utility built into your efi if available or using hdparm and calling secure erase.
https://grok.lsu.edu/article.aspx?articleid=16716
I suggest calling these utilities with no other drives connected.
True, but it’s not clear to me that both drives are exhibiting the behavior and it sounds more like a copy between two drives. I wouldn’t rule it out and do think it is a possibility, but in my professional experience drives fail much more frequently than controllers.
It makes sense to me to test the drives individually, in another system preferably, using smart long test, which is non-destructive. Next test other drives in this system. If there are errors, try changing out the SATA cables, too. If you can shuffle the data off the drives, do so and then try running them through a secure erase in another system. A bad drive should fail the same way in another system.
My other thought for probably not being the controller is that 4TB is a very long time for a sustained transfer to fail on a flakey component. Also, there are no reports of other errors.
Sounds like a bad drive, TBH. Not as much the platters but the electronics.
If you can move all the data off and do a secure erase on it, it will tell you all lot.
The last board suggested with 5 ports would handle 4 drives in raidz2.
This is smaller even. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/hRBrxr/asrock-motherboard-970mpro3
I would prefer having the smaller board with the hba and putting 8-10 smaller drives in raidz3. That would give you 6 TB with three drives for failure to prevent loss.
Outside the drives, the cost would be under $200 for the board and the hba.
If you have an old system with two PCI-e 16 ports, then your cost is about $90 before you start buying drives.
I’m doing similar with a DDR3 system and spinning 1 TB disks. It’s fast enough to serve video streams.
Ok, so if you want to do a bunch of drives in a box:
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/FhPzK8/gigabyte-mw50-sv0-atx-lga2011-3-motherboard-mw50-sv0
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/yFWJ7P/crucial-bx500-4-tb-25-solid-state-drive-ct4000bx500ssd1
However, that’s expensive. I would go with spinning disks.
If you want to bring the cost down more,
You can drive the price down more by buying a used system.
The pile of SSDs will be easiest to stuff into a box.
You will need to get creative with cooling.
I found it to just be slow. My only complaint was some weird layer squish, but that was very wrong esteps.
The max is pretty, but the SE is more in my price range.
My use is for making little plastic bits cheaply, and I’m not concerned about time. If my kid wants to upgrade to something better, I will probably “buy” it off him.
I have to agree. My ender 3 has been through hell over the past 5 years, but since I am familiar with it, I can usually dial it in.
If I was just starting out I would be overwhelmed with trying to understand it AND troubleshooting.
If you have an electromechanical background, such as bench repair and/or having repaired lots of truly broken printers, then it is less of a risk imo. I know that refurbish items are usually okay, but there are bad items that make it out of any shop.

I used Ubuntu for a while until about 7-10 years ago when they started bogging down the interface. I moved to Mint because it was easy to not have to learn new stuff. Here is a list of some of the grievances:
Advertiements for Canonical in the OS.
The telemetry is consentual and optional, but it still gives Linux users a weird itch.
Snaps are the default packages, which is not completely FOSS. I use Fedora now, and flatpack is a similar tool, but it is less bloated, FOSS, decentralized, sandboxed by default, and asks you too update packages instead of automatically doing so. Snaps seem to be easier for maintainers and supposedly has better security. https://itsfoss.com/flatpak-vs-snap/
People were irritated with the Unity interface when it came out.
Also, it’s corporate and that bugs people.
Debian is upstream of Ubuntu and a bit more simple. Mint is downstream and includes many of the QOL fixes in Ubuntu without the above grievances.
