I finally got round to taking this LG Chem #RESU10H battery apart. These are the 6 cell packs, originally all in series for 155vdc. I will be restringing them as 2s3p for a 48vdc nominal pack, and implementing a new active balancing BMS.

The battery disabled itself, throwing an error code with #30, which indicates the cell with an issue. Sure enough, the one pack's voltage with cell #30 is about 0.4v lower than the rest. Since these are NMC, absolute care must be taken in any resolution.

Months after Elon Musk's DOGE crusade to wipe it out, LTO tape storage is bigger than ever. It is tempting to write off tape storage as relics from a bygone era but its recent performance says otherwise. With 176.5 exabytes shipped in 2024 — up 15.4% year over year — LTO tape is carving out a strategic niche in the surge of AI and ML workloads.

TL;DR
Record 176.5 EB shipped in 2024
Tape offers cost‑effective, long‑term durability
Fueled by AI/ML archival demand
LTO roadmap plans up to 576 TB per cartridge

ZFS ARC Cache Explained

ZFS uses RAM as a powerful cache called the ARC (Adaptive Replacement Cache) to speed up disk reads and metadata operations.

It looks like ZFS “eats” RAM — but it’s actually putting your memory to work, caching data for blazing-fast access.

Important: ARC is not a memory leak!
It dynamically adjusts — if apps need RAM, ARC frees it instantly.

You can set a limit with zfs_arc_max so ZFS won’t take all your memory.

Properly tuned, ARC boosts performance without starving your system.

So don’t fear the RAM usage—embrace the cache!

Got a couple of 10T Exos drives refurbished. One has over 57k hours on it . Never ran enterprise class drives before but I am trusting @Lydie on this one . Surface scan appears good.
