With so many sites, forums, and niche communities disappearing or getting gutted (looking at you, Reddit API changes, Tumblr purges, and old forums going offline), wouldn't it be great if there were a community-driven project to archive the internet that was? Think GeoCities, early YouTube, Flash games, fanfiction sites, even obscure blogs. A sort of "Dead Internet Archive" that mirrors lost content before it vanishes forever.

Could use tools like ArchiveBox, wget, and IPFS. Maybe even pair it with a tagging system to make stuff browsable. Anyone else interested in something like this?

I am trying to tie 4 14tb drives in a drive cage to my mini pc using oculink to sata for data and and 4 to 1 sata power cable but unsure how to power the drives. What would the safest most compact way to go about it be?

How reliable are CDs/DVDs as a form of media for data storage?

I have a stack of unused CDs (700MB) I got from my uncle some years back. I’ve only used a few of them for file testing and offline music for the car. Perhaps I can put copies of photos on a few of them? I already have an external hard drive and several loose internal hard drives, all of which have plenty of data already with some room for more. I just kind of want to use these CDs. lol

P.S. I’m a somewhat novice to data hoarding

Hi all. I’m looking for 2 bay das enclosure for my 2 hdds that are not too expensive like the ones from yote. I don’t need any raid setup since I am bringing these hdds from place to place. I searched for it online but what I found are 2 bay for nas. Any budget-friendly suggestions? I also prefer type c connection. Thank you.

Hello there.

Some time ago, I obtained a 16TB (14.5 TB) Seagate Expansion Desktop that has the Seagate’s Exos X16 16 TB SAS HDD inside of it. Problem is for relatively large transferring of files, it is sicklingly slow and given how it's SAS, most enclosures probably wouldn't be able to accept it (if i rip the HDD out.) Even more ironic, the Seagate Enclosure and Drive is cheaper where I live than just the Exos Drive.

I personally am looking for a DAS to keep long-term stuff around. I would like to put something together that has a decent price-to-performance ratio and wouldn't mind going smaller in terms of overall storage size, provided I have enough to spend for a while. Aside from selling the HDD and going through the troubles of removing files i left on there, what could I do to salvage my situation here, without spending too much? Thanks.
