Yeah I installed Linux a couple months ago. Can't say it's perfect but so far it's better than Windows. Now some of my friends are asking me to help switch over too.
Also started a notice a lot of kvetching around Linux, guess the fires are starting to lick Microsoft's ass. Don't really get why, they already mostly abandoned Windows for Azure.

I did a small research (pics included) and I've noticed there's something strange happening with recent WD hard drives.

For instance let's take a look at this 4TB WD Purple (WD43PURZ), the datasheet says it's CMR but if you look at the graph it behaves like SMR and TRIM is supported.
https://files.catbox.moe/xdudsc.jpg

Same applies to 4TB WD Blue/Red Plus models, all these have 256MB cache and 181 buffer zones (like WD Red EFAX) instead of typical 61 like normal CMR WD drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/htn2k3.jpg

Look at these 4TB drives - they all look like this SMR WD Red EFAX drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/cz46vl.jpg

And 6TB WD drives are also identical to this EFAX drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/nd55ho.jpg

So WD is lying again like they did when they released their first SMR Red. Avoid all 4-6TB models, unless it's enterprise class (Gold, Black, Ultrastar).

>>106464457
do we have a confirmed list of years when wd started to shift these drives to be smr instead of cmr?
>It's not a pure SMR, rather pseudo-CMR with 3 times more buffer zones and TRIM
regarding this, my wd43purz has trim like you mentioned and the manufacturing date on the label says 2023. although on second thought it might be the case that the entire production line under the same serial regardless of age is already on SMR tech as opposed to the claimed CMR. how did this fly for so long under peoples noses?
>>
>>106464498

Ok, I'll try to explain but you probably won't understand a word.

1) Logical zones in a SMR drive have nothing to do with physical zones on the platter itself, they're always dynamic even at idle unlike on a CMR drive (CMR is completely static and predictable in this regard).

SMR automatically fragments files even when you just read them (yes that's how ridiculous they are). That's why a SMR is complete clusterfuck and it's nearly impossible to degragment them, any extra reading and adding files actually worsens fragmentation of existing files. And that happens to a healthy SMR drive, if the drive has problems then it's 10x times as hard to recover data from it.

2) CMR drive have only one translation system (physical addressing sector-track-head to logical addressing LBA), SMR disks have two translation systems (further complication). These are the classic "sector-track-head in LBA" translator and the new "sector-track-head in track" translator, and both of these translators are interconnected. Losing any of them will result in complete data loss (by the way, this is what the "fast erase" technologies of SMR disks are based on - we reset one of the translators and that's it, there is no data). Recovery will be possible only if the lost translator can be restored. This is already a task for data recovery companies, and at the moment it is quite complex and expensive.

>>106464546

I don't know people haven't noticed it. This WD managed to mask SMR much better than when they secretly released their first SMR Reds when people complained
about Reds shitting themselves in RAID.
>>
can't you just disassemble one and look how it's made? surely SMR and CMR will look different
>>
>>106460464
>CMR drives with 2TB per platter density
Do you know if it's safe to assume any drive 2TB or smaller is always gonna be CMR?

This is not a distro war.

I want to discuss what is the best release model for OSs in general.
>Stable release
Make a snapshot of a repository at a given time, and cherry pick security patches only.
Advantage: not making breaking changes for the users all the time.
Disadvantage: not as up-to-date, a lot of packages end up becoming fairly custom as backports and cherry-picks are applied to the snapshot/fork.
>Rolling release (contuinally update packages)
Release software updates as they come.
Advantage: more up-to-date, can be easier to maintain as you do not have to apply a lot of custom patches for e.g. security updates.
Disadvantage: may introduce breaking changes to packages at any time.

Which model do you principally prefer? for Desktop? for Server?
>>
ANSWER MY THREAD YOU FUCKING NIGGERS
>>
>>106465630
stable always for everything.
>>
Debian is too outdated, Arch is too bleeding edge.
I'd prefer something with monthly snapshots with support for only the newest one, but ample opportunity to not update if that's what you want.

Yeah right. Spy for China for a couple of decades, then return home to lead a state company founded on stolen technology. "Self-made"
>>
>>106465107
I'm talking in the broader sense of wanting to cut off your entire influence in the world and then wonder why people don't jump to your every word.

Tariffs and industry in your own country is good provided it isn't shit that will just turn your home into a smog factory or purple frogs. It is how you prevent yourself from again, going UK stupid and letting China make all your steel.
