  • 250GB - cache
    1TB - Pool
    2TB - Pool
    10TB - Parity

    With only 3TB in the pool you’re going to be increasing the size of the pool potentially quite quickly depending on if you’re ripping DVDs or Blu-Rays to it.

    You’ll soon need another drive to boost that pool size and I promise, that parity will keep those tears at bay if something happens.

    Love these write ups. I lived through the platform wars fighting on the side of Light (Spectrum) against the hordes of darkness (C64) and the one grey teary Amstrad user.

    Loved Bomb Jack, it’s a great game and I think it’s going into the curriculum for the kids next week to show them a great game with a simple game dynamic compared to them playing tosh on Roblox all of the time.

    I remember playing the arcade on a ferry to France as part of a school trip. Best part of the trip was this cab.

    Thanks for the memories.

    Similar issue here, full fibre roll out is estimated to be complete in 2025.

    I’m just outside Newcastle on the coast and could get Virgin but my neighbours have had a nightmare with it.

    They only rolled out their fibre about three months ago so there might be issues with that

    Where the hell in the UK are you? I’m in the North and pay £26 for 60mbps but get more like 70 due to how close I am to the street cabinet though I haven’t even got copper cable here, just crappy aluminium that is so old I think Alexander Graham Bell himself fitted them.
