man, syncthing really can just handle a drive fucking dying and disappearing off-network

i ummmmm dropped 3 terabytes of spinning disk directly onto the ground, if you're wondering the cause for this post

i am now in need of a usb 3.0 hard drive with at least 3tb of space again, rip

@manifold oh dear. Good luck finding one--don't forget the possibility of a cheap USB-SATA bridge and a SATA disk. Might find one cheaper that way?

@Felthry yeah i'm definitely considering a USB-SATA bridge, especially bc this is for a raspberry pi and we could merge these into one like, box

@Felthry there's some cases and some screw-on hat things that do it well

@manifold yeah we don't know a lot about raspberry pis but i imagine there's a lot of options for stuff like that out there!

@Felthry despite it currently not really being possible to *obtain* a new raspberry pi bc of manufacturing hell, there's *plenty* in the accessory market
