    Except with proper microwaves that actually reduce the power. I’m not sure if it’s just Panasonic, but look for microwaves that mention inverter technology. Essentially they convert AC to DC, and then back to AC in a more controlled and adjustable manner.








  • Yeah, you don’t want a surveillance drive. They are optimized for continuous writes, not random IO.

    It’s probably worth familiarizing yourself with the difference between CMR and SMR drives.

    If you expect this to keep growing, it might make sense to switch to SAS now - then you can find some really cheap enterprise class drives on ebay that will perform a bit better in this type of configuration. You’d just need a cheap HBA (like a 9211-8i) and a couple breakout cables. You can use SATA drives with a SAS HBA, but not the other way around.
