       @notthebee I’m trying to understand what are you warning people about…So they won’t spend their money? If they can, they do no harm to their family, why not? There’s always limiting #WifeApprovalFactor…🤣I also work with a huge IT infrastructure and it’s usually not so easy to replace IT equipment. It has got better in last few years, but it’s been usually a battle with accounting over what they see as non-manufacturing related toys…Until something stops working, of course…😅

       @ssamulczyk I think @notthebee's point is that there shouldn't be a stigma around trying to diagnose misbehaving disks, and continuing to use them afterwards

       @wolf480plOh yes, sorry for that. I did not notice there’s a post before the one I’ve replied to…I guess all the stigma should be on the Internet comments. Usually there’s no point in reading them…🤷🏻‍♂️By all means, it’s your hardware - fiddle with it as you like…😎@notthebee

       @ssamulczyk @notthebee yeah and when you manage to find out what a particular SMART message was indicating, post about it on r/homelab so that others can learn from it, and *ignore their replies* ?

       @wolf480pl Well, in case of @notthebee they probably will, as they made their stuff sort of public and it’s part of the game…🤷🏻‍♂️I will drop a post, leave a comment or share when I find something useful, but I’m far from being a public figure and often nobody cares.🙈Though I’m more and more discouraged seeing what’s happening with AI bots and stuff.

       @ssamulczyk @notthebee My point was that we cannot build a shared pool of knowledge when people are discouraged from investigating and sharing their findings.But with AI bots maybe we soon won't have any shared pool of knowledge anyway :/

       @wolf480pl I fully agree with you, but not everyone has a viable, decent platform to share that knowledge.For example, in 12 years, I have seen my fair share of Active Directory cases I’ve solved by sheer luck with even Premier Support being clueless… I have no easy way to share it while not revealing company data.Places like reddit also seem to be unfriendly and now with the bots - not my go-to space. I was IRC person in the past. I miss that. Fediverse sort of fills that gap…@notthebee
