no, I just removed them with the live cd and repartitioned it (Im assuming its doing the same thing under the hood?)
editing the /etc/fstab didnt work (I just changed the path but not sure if the uuid plays any part) but ill give the rm/mkdir part a go
Im curious on why you are using zfs snapshots? (i never used them myself as I handle my backups with duplicity)
i agree.. but Im trying to find out if the chances of this shit happening is lower with specific hdds
if its sealed airtight why do you need to replace them every 6 months? thats a good advice though.. to match my paranoia levels I would add a fireproof + faraday box
i few drives that I have are 10yod and a couple more 5+..do modern drives meant to last and be replaced every a couple of years?I dont mind if a drive fails because ill have dupes.. what I want is to minimize the failures.wd red+ and wd ae make look promising but i dont have an experience with them
No but I rebooted the system after the change. do still need to update it regardless the reboot?
