ERI is pretty good. They'll even come to your site:
https://eridirect.com/services/data-destruction/
Unsure where they are exactly (they list some recycling centers on the
web site, but I think they have the data destruction services more places).

Stuff that I mostly can't play with, yet, because I am waiting for the
first tranche of my copying data from one of my disks to itself (to
convert from one-copy data to two-copy data), takes a *bleeping* long time.
Thanks, how

zpool export prepares a pool to be used on a different machine -
for an external portable disk, you might do this in order to
unmount it.
You definitely don't need to do that right after you create

I recommend enabling
copies=2 if you don't mirror your backup volumes:
zfs set copies=2 extern_backup_pool
I can do that on a single disk? Interesting!

I recently had a disk I use for external backup lose its mind. And
though XFS has been mostly good to me for many years, I decided it was
time to try ZFS. The fact it will notice any data errors it encounters,
and can check the entire disk for errors, is reassuring. And the fact it

Hi everyone,
Last night, I was doing some hardware hacking and accidentally shorted a USB
device that was connected to my laptop. The laptop survived, but I think it was
too much for the SATA SSD controller, which refuses to read anything but 0s and
shows only a ~1 GB volume. I've tried all the
