Sorry if this is a n00b question but hopefully someone can give me a quick pointer.
I'm running Ubuntu server 22.04.3 LTS
I have ZFS-on-Linux installed - as per the project's installation instructions for Ubuntu, this is as simple as "apt install zfsutils-linux" - I don't need to add any...
Curious whether others are running custom CCTV servers for home or small business, if so what software are you using?
Not interested in paying a license if I can help it so...
I'm trying ZoneMinder but it's a bit rough around the edges and seems very resource intensive (chews up a whole CPU...

What's the current user experience, is there an issue you need to address or they are happy and you just need to replace due to age?
Difficult to judge when we don't know...
ZIL is the log itself and SLOG is a dedicated device that the ZIL sits on; by default if you enable sync writes but don't have a SLOG, the ZIL sits on your pool (hard drives in this case) which is bad for performance as you effectively write the data to the same pool drives twice. So if you're...
What's the minimum usable capacity you need to provide overall?

What happened to just putting "M" on the end of the mobile version of the GPU?
Companies obsessed with coming up with new naming schemes all the time, confusing AF.
You mean like live-time? That wouldn't be practical or cost-effective as there are so many real players, you'd need millions of these employees...!
But perhaps you could employ a few hundred people for a few months to just play all the characters in the game over and over, then use their...
