Uso #archlinux su disco #nvne da 1T #sabrent (home non separata).
+
Un SSD #samsung da 256G dedicato a backup del blog + ISO varie ed eventuali: roba che se perdo poco importa.
+
Per #backup ho 1 #maxtor #usb3 da 4t che collego al bisogno.

Tutti con #luks + #ext4.

Il setup è ok, ma penso di mettere un disco meccanico da 4T in locale dedicato al backup incrementale ( #kup o #timeshift ) e poi questo lo copierò sul Maxtor esterno.

Pareri? Consigli sul disco da acquistare? Grazie 😊

🚀 Introducing #BashLab: A Portable Fast Lab for BashCore! 🖥️🔧

I just set up a lightning-fast portable lab running Debian XFCE on a USB 3.0 drive, fully optimized for BashCore development & testing. This setup lets me:

✅ Boot anywhere with persistence 🏃‍♂️
✅ Work faster than my old HDD 🚀
✅ Keep everything isolated & portable 🔒

Perfect for testing, experimenting, and refining BashCore without touching my main system!

Its alive!!!
My 2TB portable #HDD that died earlier this week has now been repaired (by myself 😃 ).
The internal #SATA to #USB3 interface went ping.
I got a new, not like for like, replacement and with the help of a hacksaw, some snips and electrical tape it had been brought back to life.
The new SATA interface is a generic one that should work with any 2.5 internal HDD so I needed to cut a bit off the original portable HHD case.
Nice fix which only cost me £3.99 GBP and 15 minutes of my time.

Un lecture #CD/#DVD (voir #BlueRay) #USB3 compatible #Linux à recommander ? Si il grave, c’est encore mieux. Merci pour les repartages éventuels.

USB 3 vs 2.4GHz: USB 3.0 ports emit interference at 2.4GHz, the frequency popular with wifi, controller dongles, etc

Isn't the whole point of USB C that it's reversible? Yet when I plug my ereader into my PC one way, it doesn't charge or show up as attached. If I flip the connector, it does. Weird.

Looking for an USB hub that actually interfaces to the host (PC) with USB3.0 for USB2.0 client devices. All i can find are devices that have an USB3 and USB2 hub in one case. IOW: any usb2.0 client device is routed via USB2.0 pins to the host uplink.
(such an USB3 to USB2 bridge would be helpful to overcome the bandwidth limit when running multiple USB2.0 devices in parallel.) #usb #usb3

💡 La nuova Raspberry Pi 5 con 16 GB di RAM

I spent a few hours on New Years Eve trying to listen to my USB microphone using Python3, PyQt5 and pyAudio. I can play WAV files using pyAudio, but fetching my microphone is becoming a bit challenging.

Lets see if I can get this working New Years Day. Time to read the documentation.

The next #thinkpad on my #workbench is an #E450 – I grabbed this from #ewaste to provide a family member a better laptop. It has a #i5-5200U at 2.2Ghz, and a max 16GB of #DDR3L #RAM so it can/should run #Win11, #linux, or #BSD with ease. The IO is ok, with multiple #USB3 ports, #HDMI, #ethernet and a memory card reader. This is a decent form factor, weight, and would make a decent laptop for someone. Though no docking station capabilities, they removed the port underneath.

There is a big BUT with this laptop though: it keeps freezing, and the video is glitching. Which may be why it went to ewaste…

I upgraded the DDR3L RAM to 16GB, and wiped the 500GB SSD that came with it.
Starting installing #Win11, and I let it install and reboot so I could refill my tea – to come back and the laptop was frozen with a black screen.
I rebooted, and it froze on the initial Win11 change password screen.
I rebooted again, went into the #Lenovo #BIOS #diagnostic tool, and started the full tests. As the test were running, I touched the nub and the video started glitching. Letting the test continue, the laptop froze while testing.

So, is this beyond time & effort to get working – or pull the spare parts and move on from?

The next #thinkpad on my #workbench is a #W510 – it has an #eSATA port as well as multiple #USB3 ports, #expresscard, #displayport, #smartcard, memory card reader, #DVD/#CDRW, with a max 16GM of #DDR3 #RAM so it can run #Win11 (if you are careful) or #linux with ease. This will be a good replacement for my workbench laptop for testing and #wiping #HardDrives and #SSDs

But: the processor is only an i7-Q720 1.6 Ghz
This will be a dog with #Windoz

So I am researching which & where to get a #CPU upgrade.
According to #thinkwiki https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:W510 Some models came with an Intel Quad Core Extreme Processor i7-920XM (2.0GHz 1333MHz 8MB L3).

But wowzas the couple I found were expensive as all hell.

Any thoughts on
a) where to find one of these #CPUs at a reasonable cost; possibly locally in the SF bay area?
b) Is/are there other #CPUs that would work in the W510 motherboard that would provide more bang for the buck?

TIA!

Which is a shame, since this T430s runs both 10 and 11 really well with the max #16GB of #RAM - it boots up in seconds with a #1TB #ssd I installed. The #keyboard has a nice feel to it (even with the chicklet keys), and is wide enough but not a surfboard wide. The #USB3 and the #expresscard ports let me use this for tech projects as well as the browsing and job hunting I am currently focused on.

I lost count the number of negative nancy's in these threads with the answer to throw it out / upgrade to something new - the hardware is over 10 years old, yadda yadda. 🙄 Clearly they are not familiar with us #vintagecomputing folks, nor familiar with using an item until it completely falls apart.

Ich habe immer gekaufte #NAS gehabt. Gestern hat mich ein Bekannter gefragt, ob ich ihm eventuell bei seinem Projekt, via RasPi 5 und externen HDDs ein NAS zusammenzudengeln helfen könne.
😱
Heute nach Anleitung vom #Linuxwikinger
https://derlinuxwikinger.de
#PiOS Lite und #OpenMediaVault auf einen #Pi4 mit 4GB RAM gedengelt, nen #USB3 Stick drangehängt und ein paar FHD Videos draufgeschoben. Okay, Upload war nicht so dolle aber Streaming ziemlich gut für quick and dirty.
Jetzt kann ich ihm helfen.

I venture to post an oddity here
https://meshtastic.discourse.group/t/solar-store-forward-pole-node-testing-24-7-operation/14956
concerning the use of #usbc to #usba adapters and the effect that can have. The section in question is "Testing using USB C input via USB A output from solar panel to prevent drain of battery by the panel" in this #meshtastic #solarnode build test. If anyone can predict if my tests will fail, that would save me time and make me learn even more than I think I have. #usbc4 #usb #usb3

Why is #rsync -aP speed dramatically fluctuating from ~40kbit/s to 10mbit/s? Is there something I can do to improve performance? As far as I know the USB thumbdrive I am copying to should be #usb3 and the port on my device lists USB 3.2 Gen1. #linux #files #cli #cp #usb3_2
