A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I posted about some entreprise SSDs here before, and now I made a full blog post about their insides! With even more pictures!

I hope you enjoy it :)

Crikey. I have to wonder what that ~2TB unit must have cost in 2016.

Interesting that the one has such large capacitors in it. I imagine that is as last-ditch effort to keep the board powered long enough to finish flushing all of its caches in the event of a power failure.

I don't even want to think about prices ahah, I could have done some research and talked about it on the article tho...

And yeah that is probably why

I can only conjecture it must have cost a mint.
