aaa i regret choosing the #MSI spatium M2 #SSD over a #WD black... turns out the latter has a higher TBW for the same price. well, here's to hoping that the one i already bought will last me a long while...

💧Artist: #WDwilddrawing / #WD in City: #Chios Island Greece 🇬🇷 2023 - Title: "🐍🦅" - #Streetart #Art #Mural #Mastoart #Urbanart #3DArt #Anamorphic

Streetartwall. A mural of a bird of prey pouncing on a snake is sprayed/painted on a side wall and the ceiling under a bridge. The green and yellow head of the bird and the brown snake are sprayed on the side wall. The ceiling is filled with the bird's purple wings. A simple but impressively well done mural with 3D effect over 2 walls.

Fuuuuuuuuck #sandisk Extreem #SSD. Just pluggin in my drive and it is completely wiped.

Anyone preform root cause analysis on the drive loss?

Is it as simple as a corrupt $MFT and the remaining sectors are fine, or is the entire drive contents gone due to hardware issue?

This weekend ill try and carve out the data to see if I can find anything, but I am not hopeful.

Luckely it was only a backup and I did not lose any data, but still sucks! #WD #forensics

💧Artist: #WDwilddrawing / #WD in City: #Wiesbaden Germany 🇩🇪 2023 - Title: "Sirona" - #Streetart #Art #Mural #Mastoart #Urbanart #3DArt #Artwork

Streetartwall. On a total of 6 walls is sprayed / painted a mural, which seen together, shows a Celtic goddess of healing springs. The modern building is provided with a concrete staircase, which was beautifully painted here. The goddess is a young woman in a long orange dress, a beautiful fine face and brown hair tied into braids with a gold headband. A snake is coiled on her arm towards a clay vessel. This vessel is open and shows a forest with some rocks from which springs a spring. Held by the goddess, the water pours into her orange dress. Behind the staircase is a real tree whose trunk is found and continued in the clay vessel. Simply magnificent.

bought on backorder from #Adorama. better worker treatment than B&H people say. not to mention Amazon! Best Buy is sold out with no backorder option.

killer deal on high-end #4TB PCIe 4.0 #SSD! #WD BLACK #SN850X 4TB for $230 on sale until Thursday. way overkill for #Thunderbolt 3, but one of the best SSDs available so hopefully pretty future proof. half of what it cost just a couple months ago. 🔥 https://www.adorama.com/wdbb9g4bnc.html

Das hatte ich auch noch nicht. Laptop mit #NVME. Factory Windows 10 funktioniert, kein Secureboot o.Ä. Aber unter #Linux? NVME in lsblk nicht zu sehen. In lspci schon. Dmesg faselt was von Initialisierungsfehlern.

Die Lösung: Ein Firmware-Bug des Herstellers #WD #WesternDigital. Spricht man sie mit aktuellem NVME-Commandset an, beginnt die #SSD zu kotzen. Lösung: älterer Kernel oder Firmware aktualisieren (there is a bootable version…). Andere Hersteller hatten wohl auch schon mal sowas.

Say, #fediverse: does #SSD storage make sense in a #NAS?

I have a #Synology NAS (which is really spectacular) -- but the #Seagate #IronWolf Pro drives are noisy.

Today, noise doesn't matter: the NAS is in my "data center" (the basement). But we're moving to a small place. It's amazing how many things the NAS does that keep it going 24x7x365.

SSDs are quiet -- but I worry about longevity and, of course, cost.

Is anyone using #WD Red 2TB SSDs? Any other pointers or suggestions?

if you want an external storage for backup or just for general uses, many 4TB and 2TB external portable SSD models from multiple manufacturers like Samsung, Crucial, WD, and more, are on discount. #WD #Samsung #Amazon #PrimeDay https://www.neowin.net/deals/early-amazon-prime-day-deals-2tb-4tb-external-ssds-from-samsung-wd-sandisk-crucial-and-more/

OK Geeks help me out. Who do you like for NAS drives these days? Want to expand mine... It's for backups so reliability is my priority. Currently have 4 HGST Deskstars which have been running solid since 2016; I'd get another but HGST/Hitachi doesn't exist anymore.
WD? Seagate?

If you want an NVMe SSD or an external SSD, Amazon and Newegg have got you covered. That's because some of the most popular 2TB drivers from WD and Crucial are selling at amazing prices. #Crucial #WD #NVMe #Deals https://www.neowin.net/deals/deals-crucial-wd-internal-nvme-external-ssds-selling-at-prices-just-too-hard-to-ignore/

@arstechnica I have the 2TB version of this #SanDisk SSD and macOS is constantly showing the “Disk Not Ejected Properly” error multiple times per day. The disk immediately remounts afterwards, but I am concerned that this may be causing data corruption. I’m currently using the SSD as a Time Machine Backup drive, but starting to think that's not a good use for this SSD if it's proving to be unreliable in general use. I hope #WD makes good with a firmware fix for 2TB and 4TB models!

If your #baofeng gets a noise and cracks while turning a volume thumb, just disassemble it and spray a little bit of #WD into a resistor.
Do not rip off speaker wires, as I did.

#Cybersecurity #Hacking #WD #Ransomware: "The hackers who breached data storage giant Western Digital claim to have stolen around 10 terabytes of data from the company, including reams of customer information. The extortionists are pushing the company to negotiate a ransom — of “minimum 8 figures” — in exchange for not publishing the stolen data.

On April 3, Western Digital disclosed “a network security incident” saying hackers had exfiltrated data after hacking into “a number of the Company’s systems.” At the time, Western Digital provided few details about exactly what data the hackers stole, saying in a statement that the hackers “obtained certain data from its systems and [Western Digital] is working to understand the nature and scope of that data.”"

They also say that if the toy doesn't work well or isn't accurate, it's not their fault, and they won't promise to fix it or make it better. They also can't promise that the results you get from using the toy will be correct."

Streetartwall. On the outer wall of a three-story modern building of a university, an impressive mural of a woman with a burning rose is sprayed / painted.
The mural is painted in blue and yellow. Next to an outdoor staircase, the mural features light blue geometric waves and 3D effect. In the center stands a woman, veiled with a headscarf and veil and goggles on her forehead. Over her shoulder hangs a yellow scarf. She holds a red, burning rose in her hand. On her right side is an almost transparent yellow wing that reaches to the top corner.

@tuxedocomputers Does your installer support having a #GPG key on an USB stick and then being password-protected to unlock the hard-drive? I have this setup here:

I'm contemplating whether to purchase a simple #NAS for home. Mostly for photo storage and backups.

I can get my hands on either #WD #MyCloud Home or WD My Cloud EX2 Ultra with quite a big discount. Does anyone have experience with those and could recommend (or advise against) any of those two?

I like how slim and cheap the Home is, but I don't like it having only one hard drive with no RAID possible. But the Ultra is twice the price 🙈

🟢 Artist: #WDwilddrawing / #WD - in City: #Rotterdam Netherlands 🇳🇱 2017 - Title: "Helixotherapy"- #Streetart #Art #Mastoart #Mural #3DArt

Streetartwall. A mural on a 3-story residential and commercial building with brush and spray paint in green and bronze implemented. The mural is on a free area flanked by two rows of windows. It is a side portrait of a Greek-looking statue consisting only of a swirling green ribbon. The back of the ribbon is bronze. The curves of the ribbon follow the curves of the niche in which the figure appears to be standing, and the windows on the sides of the figure are connected by this seemingly curved background, suggesting depth and space. The figure is designed in 3D.
The artist named his work "Helixotherapy' and was inspired by the famous Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher.

Black Friday spoils: a Western Digital 14 TB Red drive. Normally $300, brought down to $209 via #WD sale. In addition, PayPal was running a 12% cash back deal on Western Digital, and my credit card provided $32 in rewards plus another 3% back for buying through PayPal. Finally, something to fill the 8th bay on the #NAS. Winning.
