OK, so do you guys remember this conversation exactly 2 months ago? I finally got around to writing the application and I need some
guinea pigswilling participants to test it.It's not as pretty as the DownloadMoreRAM website because I'm no artist. It's more entertaining than beautiful. It also uses my sense of humor which isn't like the RAM website so don't freak out.
So, who's willing to trust a complete stranger on the internet? If you're worried about it it should run in a VM just fine. I'm also willing to post the code but fair warning I'm not a coder by day or night so if it makes your eyes bleed don't blame me.

For my own backup servers I think I've finally decided on using 10TB drives. Specifically the Seagate IronWolf NAS drives. Seems to offer the best Cost:TB when it's on sale and when it's not it isn't much more.
The only difference I see between them and the pro series (besides the 14TB option) is the claim that the pro's can handle 120TB more writes. This isn't going to be a real difference maker for me since this is for archival storage. With 10TB drives I'll be able to cram 90TB in a chassis that's smaller than a mid-tower & if I hack it a bit I bet I can fit 120TB.
