Honestly, a modern Intel processor with quick sync will do a far better job of transcoding than that p2000.

It was a Jewish settlement sooooo.

It was an illegal Jewish settlement built on Palestinian land.

I have 1gb/s synchronous fiber through my local small town. $80 on my city utilities bill. Oh, and no caps. Muni fiber ftw

I use Unraid as my server OS. It has a mechanism for caching file writes to the slower array disks.

Yeah, it started with a herniated disk at l5-s1 with central canal stenosis. That was a discectomy and laminectomy about 15 years ago. The disk continued to deteriorate and eventually collapsed to where the vertebrae were almost touching. The lack of stability resulted in severe spinal cord impingement.

All good now, other than I'm old and a bit too fat lol

I did.. Until I found a good neurosurgeon and had a L5-S1 360° fusion.

Prior to that I had back episodes regularly, some so painful I would completely pass out. The last straw for me was when I was coming down the stairs in my house, took a step down and woke up at the bottom of the stairs. I'm extremely lucky I didn't break my neck. Some orthopedic surgeons are good but a good neuro is a life saver.

Massive SSDs? Nah, just a couple of 1TB drives as cache. The rest of my 120TB is spinning disks :)
