The Daily Bleh
Had a power glitch here at Pixy Labs, and my UPS helpfully responded by dropping dead on the spot.
I also discovered that one of the drives in Pepper, my anime storage box, has failed. But it might have failed previously and the box only noticed when I rebooted.
It's RAID-5, so the data is safe for now, but there doesn't seem to be any way to rebuild the array. So I have to back up 2.4TB, replace the drive, and restore that 2.4TB.
Ick.
Do I even have 2.4TB of space to do a backup?
Hmm... Yes, in fact. Okay, good. Off we go then!
