QMK has pretty extensive documentation that I’m pretty sure covers this. Have you read Tap-Hold Configuration Options?

upper capacity

There may be an upper limit, but on Amazon there is a 72 TB version that would have to come with at least 18 TB drives. If 18 TB is fine, 20 TB is also probably fine, but I couldn’t find any reports by people saying they’d loaded 20 TB drives into theirs without issue.

procedure

You could also clone them yourself, but you’d want to put the NAS into read only mode or take it offline first.

I think cloning drives is generally faster than rebuilding them in RAID, as well as easier on the drives, but my personal experience with RAID is very limited.

Basically, what I’d do is:

  1. Take the NAS offline or make it read-only.
  2. Pull drive 0 from the array
  3. Clone it
  4. Replace drive 0 with your clone
  5. Pull drive 2 (from the other mirrored pair) from the array
  6. Clone it
  7. Replace drive 2 with your clone
  8. Clone drive 0 again, then replace drive 1 with your clone
  9. Clone drive 2 again, then replace drive 3 with your clone
  10. Put the NAS back online or make it read-write again.

In terms of timing… I have a Sabrent offline cloning hub (about $50 on Amazon), and it copies data at 60 Mbps, meaning it’d take about 9 hours per clone. Startech makes a similar device ($96 on Amazon, that allegedly clones data at 466 Mbps (28 GB per minute), meaning each clone would take 2.5 hours… but people report it being just as slow as the Sabrent.

Also, if you bought two offline cloning devices, you could do steps 1-3 and 4-6 simultaneously, and do the same again with steps 7-8.

I’m not sure how long it would take RAID to rebuild a pulled drive, but my understanding is that it’s going to be fastest with RAID 1. And if you don’t want to make the NAS read-only while you clone the drives, it’s probably your only option, anyway.

revolution is illegal

Does being illegal make it somehow easier to gain support?

I’m not talking about “approval rates.” I’m talking about how, in any given election, less than 5% of the vote goes to third parties.

If third party candidates can’t get enough support to even come close to getting elected, how would we be able to get enough people organized to support a revolution? Voting takes very little effort, so I would expect the number of supporters to go down, not up.

How do you have a successful revolution when roughly 95% of people support either Republicans or Democrats?

There’s nothing about our neural architecture that has “3D” built into the information it can process.

I think we are very much hardwired to innately understand 3d space in an intuitive level.

Is that just based off of something more concrete than what feels right to you? If a neural network on a computer can interact with four dimensional data, why wouldn’t we be able to?

It isn’t as automatic in three dimensions as you make it sound. Based off of the amount of learning and experimentation we do as infants, it seems reasonable to theorize that if a human were to be born in a fourth dimensional realm and to be implanted with some sort of sensory organ(s) that function in the fourth dimension, they would be able to gain an intuitive understanding of that world in the same way that they gain intuitive understandings of this one.

You can use AI for free on your own hardware.

AI is committing mass theft of copyrighted information and data on a widespread scale, the only way they are going to be able to train their AI models and have been training their AI models are through free information that has been taken from users, people of the world, sold to them by third parties.

By “mass theft of copyrighted information,” what do you mean? Who had the copyrighted information but no longer has it? Do you mean copyright infringement? If so, then you should look up “fair use” and keep reading until you understand why they think it’s applicable to their use case.

And by “data that has been taken from users,” do you mean by users who agreed to terms of service allowing the use or sale of their information/contributions to the site, generally so they could use a site for free?

Do you think that receiving a service has zero value, or that providing that service has zero value? If so, then why did all of those people use those zero value services in exchange for their information?

From https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61311966

[In 2021], the House of Representatives, controlled by the Democratic Party, voted to approve legislation that would secure - and, in some cases expand - the right to abortion afforded by the Roe decision. The vote was 218 in favour and 211 against.

The bill then moved to the evenly-divided Senate, where one Democrat - Joe Manchin of West Virginia - joined the Republicans in voting it down. Because of Senate rules that several Democrats (including Mr Manchin) are adamantly against altering, passage would have required 60 votes out of the 100 senators - a mark the abortion bill did not approach.

Many people hate their fathers and still keep their surnames.

Other people have computers - friends, family, etc… Libraries, hotel and apartment lobbies, community centers, etc., frequently have them available for free use.
