  • You seem to be under the impression that the “buckets” in this case are all or nothing. They are talking about partitioning the drives and raiding the partitions. The way he describes slowly moving data to an ever increasing raid array would most certainly work, as it is not all or nothing. These buckets have fully separate independent chambers in them that are adjustable at will. Makes leveling them possible, just tedious and risky.













  • That is actually dependent on what you are doing. With gigabit ethernet being full duplex, you can transfer 1Gb/s both up and down at the same time.

    This would mean that if he has a single port, if he was downloading a file from the internet, he could still reach 1Gb/s. If he, however, had 1Gb up and down, he could only download at 500Mb/s and upload at 500Mb/s simultaneously.

    His upload being so much lower than his download would lead to him not likely noticing any difference.
