I’ve got 30x4TB disks, just because second hand enterprise gear is so cheap. I’ll slowly replace the 4TB SAS with larger capacity SATA to make use of the spin down functionality of unraid. I don’t need the extra speed of SAS and I wouldn’t mind saving a few watt-hours.
(I’m just shy of 500tb and my server holds 38 disks.)
That means every one of your disks is >13TB? That’s expensive!
I love healthchecks. It’s so simple and easy to incorporate in to… anything much?
I’ve run Nextcloud since OwnCloud was the only option, with zero issues on any setup - be it direct, via snap, or via docker.
(EDIT: Out of interest I looked up the first subdomain I can remember using - it sent my username the login details in February 2015 so that’s over a decade now!).
On a cheap VPS, a dedicated box, and now self hosted since I finally have a decent enough connection to support it. Ran out of storage on the VPS, then the 4TB dedicated box, now on 120TB self hosted (Nextcloud only using around 6TB mind you). CPU and RAM were never an issue.
Mostly documents (PDF, ODS, ODT), photos and videos from jobs, and some people (myself included) use the storage to back up their phone gallery.
I use shared and private folders, shared and private calendars, and shared and private contact lists on Android, iOS, and PCs (Windows and Linux). I have a public upload directory for customers to send us files and often share files directly using expiring read only links.
It’s easy and it works, no idea wtf people are doing to have so much drama with it.
I’ve got 512GB of RAM in my server, and 128GB of RAM on my desktop cause you can never have too much.
I used to like Ubuntu LTS because it was just Debian that wasn’t quite as out of date, but more recent installs seem to suggest that you only get all the patches if you subscribe to their paid service? Not sure what the fine print is on that.
This box was turned on, Nextcloud installed, and never touched since (side from apt updates).

Yes but I can’t search by the name of the attachment.
I just searched for text thats in an attachment filename and it worked - with a caveat. I have a filename called “PMASUP236 - Operate Vehicles In The Field.pdf” on an email. There is no reference to the PMASUP236 in any other part of any email.
If I search “PMASUP236”, it returns the email as a result.
If I search “SUP236” it does not.
If I search “Operate Vehicles” it returns that email (along with a heap of others containing the word “Operate” and “Vehicles” in any order).
Admittedly this is on Windows at work, though I do run Thunderbird on Linux at home. Will have to try it there to confirm.
I never had any success using Nextcloud with any type of cloud storage. It was always slow as molasses, even by normal Nextcloud standards.
I just bought a JBOD and store the data myself locally, with a remote backup instead.
I believe it is cheaper long term this way, though with energy costs on the up and up that may not always be the case. Does mean I have super fast access to the content when I want it though.
