I'm likely going to get slated for this.

I could eat a box per day easily.

Dissertation title: the use of self hosted technological solutions for stress management in off duty nursing staff

Ie why torrenting media is the only way for poorly paid nurses is a sign of the breakdown in the social contract

Or, and this is one I've been thinking about, The use of patient data in health organisation owned AI systems and consent: What happens when children say no

Well parental consent to this is going to be interesting, given the father only gets it if the name is on the birth certificate (so marrital state is relevant) and that wouldn't happen for several weeks. So really the mother gets to decide...so paternity fraud is going be forefront of discussions.

Get a used adaptec arc 82885T which as an expander card. It only needs molex to power it, and it allows the HBA to connect to up to several hundred data drives (HBA to expander to HDD). The documentation is straightforward to understand.

Do not use a raid controller with Truenas. Use a HBA such as an LSI 9300 or 9207 (old but fine for HDD). Truemas manages the drive itself and any barrier to that (like device managed SMR drives and Rains controllers) means Truenas does not know where the data is, and you are likely to get data corruption at some point.

So what, use mechanical restraint instead?

But how are the lanes assigned?

Really 40 PCIe lanes should be the minimum now

...it isn't down for me...?

Alternative option: Truenas Scale. Supermicro motherboard. AMD Epyc (used) for lots of PCIE lanes. LSI 9300 and AEC 82885 expander. 16TB+ drives. Rack mount, with SAS back planea. RaidZ2 minimum. Special vdev, NVMe drives and dedicated apps and VM storage, don't be afraid of a converged solution.

And fans. Lots of fans.
