Bueno, comenzó a hacerse realidad el nuevo proyecto de cold storage de archivos digitales Arca Undernet. Ya se encargaron casi todas las componentes, discos SCSI y unidad de respaldo de cintas LTO-4. Una de las razones de poner un pie en el acelerador con esto es el aumento de precios de los discos duros, naturalmente y que voy de a poco terminando de pagar algunos créditos. El costo total del arca será de unos 600 dolares. Si tuvieras que armar un arca de conocimiento y respaldos digitales, que cosas respaldarías? las opciones son un ejemplo, pueden comentar debajo otras. Si estan interesados en colaborar, más que agradecido. De esta forma podemos sumar virtualmente cualquier cantidad de TeraBytes de almacenamiento a los 28TB actualmente disponibles en Undernet, sin tener que invertir un fangote en discos que tienen que estar encendidos todo el tiempo. La idea es respaldos periódicos de repositorios o archivos digitales que no tienen porque estar obligatoriamente disponibles 24/7. Ante cualquier eventualidad, esos repositorios pueden ser puestos a disposicion online #arca #undernet #repositorios #archivos #digitales #uruguay #coldstorage #datahoarding #datahoarder

I finally defeated the final boss of my backup migration to Proton Drive. For months, I have been trying to sync my 500GB media library (around 80k files) to Proton Drive. Every single time, the sync crashed with the exact same error: "1 item failed to backup." The only clue I had was a blurry thumbnail named "Asset 1". No date, no metadata, no search tags. I was so frustrated that I even asked Proton support to completely wipe my encrypted volume so I could start from scratch. The result was exactly the same. Finding this file became a manual protocol. I spent months periodically scanning through thousands of files just looking for a visual match to that tiny thumbnail. I finally found it today. It was an old scan from 2017. It was completely frozen - uneditable, unindexed, and gave an error when I tried to export it from my phone. I managed to track it down via macOS. When I forced an export there, the truth came out: it was not an image at all. It was a .pdf file somehow saved into the photo gallery, and it was silently breaking the entire upload queue. Removing it fixed everything. The sync is finally 100% complete. The relief of finally closing this mental background process is unmatched. #ProtonDrive #SelfHosted #DataHoarder #TechSupport #Backup #TechPhilosophy #DataMigration #Fediverse
