Currently it's on RAID boxes, but I'll move to CephFS soon. The data volume is getting too big to copy it around. Ceph allows you to nicely expand your storage over time and account for some failures on the way.
Borg needs a "smart" backend with a filesystem, so it can't use only object-storage.
I know it's my fault and probably obvious but that site doesn't load on Chrome if you have disabled third-party cookies. You might want to show an informative message instead of an infinite spinner :(
What a coincidence. Just this week I got a used FX160 for 15 € and right now it's working as a home file server, router, wireless AP and general P2P downloader.
It seems to be running fine even inside of a closed cupboard, the CPU is at 31ºC and using about 16-17 watts on average. It's warm to the touch but it might be the apparently good thermal design of the case which allows for fully passive cooling.
What I don't like is that (at least judging by the heat it generates) most of the power consumption seems to be originated in the video chip, which in a headless server is useless. I tried to disable but didn't have any luck (it's a SiS 771/671 chip).
You would have to go through a EU bank who would act as a middleman. There are many of them that have zero fees so it would be practically like if you were investing directly with Vanguard.
I loved that trackball!
