That's why I regularly clone the SSDs that run my Arch/Artix Linux installations, so I don't lose anything important. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

I hope that such backups don't quickly tire out the lifetime of your (extra) SSDs which have limited write cycles! πŸ€—

If only HDDs can last long in the jungle! πŸ˜…

Honestly, this new generation of NVMe SSDs have a very long lifespan. The cloning is only one write pass each time, so it really doesn't degrade them very much. I use each SSD, with its Arch/Artix installation, for months at a time, then I swap for another, and clone the last one. I also do clone the SSD that I'm currently using, when I make notable changes to the system in some way. Also HHDs do survive her just fine, but it became increasingly difficult to find new laptops that supported HHDs. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

I was just thinking about the average SSD when I was typing my previous comment !INDEED. πŸ˜…

I think you mean that HDDs would work just fine in your local jungle community if working continuously, just like with most electronics in your area. πŸ€“

Pretty much any SSD in a laptop now will last for years with strong use..

Yes, and I keep them, and all my SSDs, inside two ziplock bags, and also wrapped in plastic and inside smaller sealed plastic bags. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

I wonder if you have also used dessicants for added protection against moisture inside those sealed plastic bags where you put your HDDs and other electronics. πŸ˜…

I've never had enough to actually use, so I rely on multiple layers of well-sealed bags, which has thankfully worked well for many years now. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

I wonder if you have considered using (or at least trying to find) a "sovereignty-driven cloud storage" if one exists that meets your criteria for being actually "sovereignty-driven", where you can have (at least) one copy of your important files stored securely offsite. πŸ€”

Anyway, #HiveSuite already has a Drive functionality, which is working but only has 100 MB (not yet expandable) at the moment. 😎 There's already much progress there compared to SPK FIles (which I can't easily find now). πŸ€―πŸ˜…

Well, I've used MEGA for years, which is zero-knowledge end-to-end encrypted, but that's only 50 GB, so I have to prune it fairly often.

Yes, I saw that, and yeah, though I haven't tried it yet, and SPK kind of fell off the map it seems. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™
