I've not had any issues reaching multi gig speeds over smb at least 🤔

Really simple to setup with an unraid plugin and native initiator in windows. I'm expecting both better performance and no more having to manually mount vhd after every windows reboot

And even if I buy more licenses, I would need to have multiple bootable USB drives in my server and pass through some to vms. That feels sketchy..

I've started hacking on an unraid plugin that aims to do just this. We'll see how it turns out

It's also why as hardware gets faster, software gets slower.. It's a terrible trend. More developers should strive to understand how their program works under the hood

Also, doing mainly code reviews will not improve your skills like writing it yourself will. As of the current state of coding llms, your time is better spent writing the code yourself.

If you use an llm to write code for you, you need to spend a lot of time reviewing the generated code to make sure you understand it and that it is correct. For me, this takes away the joy of actually writing code.

I just had a scenario where I knew parity would be valid as soon as the parity sync reached a certain point. So I just canceled the sync at that point, made a new disk config, check the "parity is already valid" box and bam! Saved 20 hours
