We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

SATA chipsets that don’t suck? (alien.top)

I was watching a YouTube video the other day talking about hooking a drive bay to a mini PC, and he mentioned that usb cables and sata chipset are finally getting reliable recently. Something about standards improving, etc. I’m curious if anyone knows what he’s referring to, are there sata chipsets in enclosures that are better now? I always had so many issues with reliability but admittedly that was years ago.

Now? This is technology from before 2010. If anything they'll be cutting more corners than the usual just to shave a few cents on a niche technology, like they're doing with the optical media.
