    I actually like the GIMP website homepage more than the one for photoshop.

    Its simple and efficient. If I want to know more I would go to documentation or tutorials.

    The photoshop site just looks like a random squarespace template with a bunch of stock photos.

    I’ve smoked cigars occasionally, maybe as many as 2-3 per week for 2 weeks in a row and then just stopped with no signs of addiction. Nicotine is often described as one of the most addictive drugs and I sometimes wonder if I just never took enough to get addicted in the first place or my experience is a result of lower than average susceptibility to nicotine addiction.



  • If your important data is 3TB (and not expected to grow quickly) I would probably just keep one copy on the TrueNAS RAID and then get an external drive to make a second copy as a backup.

    I think I’m in a similar situation as you except I’m building the entire system from scratch. I decided to go with 6x8TB drives in RAIDZ2 for the trueNAS system then I’ll get a larger single drive (14-24TB range) to make regular backups of just the most important data. This will be my first time using TrueNAS so I’m not an expert or anything but I’ve read that one advantage of smaller drives is that rebuilds can go smoother after a failure and there is less chance that a second drive fails during the rebuild. In my case I technically could have gone with something like a pair of 24TB drives mirrored instead of the 6 disk RAIDZ2 but I don’t think the mirror would allow “scrubbing” to repair corrupted data using the parity bits. This probably doesn’t directly answer your question but I hope it helps.
