I can proxy for you.

They don't charge me tax and only $15 shipping. Then shipping within the EU is 15 euros max

I have 2 x 20tb mirrored for hot storage

2 pools x 3 x 20tb in Z1 for warm backup.

And I have 2 x 14tb for cold storage

2 x 18tb at a remote location

All are refurbished drives

I'm running 160tb of refurbished Exos right now.

I throughout the years

2 x 10tb

2 x 14tb

3 x 16tb

12 x 18tb

8 x 20tb

I've only had 2 x 16tb fail within 500 hours. All other disks have 7k+ hours and are running fine.

As long as you manage your backups properly, you won't need to worry.

Bought mine through server part deals. Their 2 year warranty is so painless. Shoot them the SN and smart data and you just swap disks.

If they don't have the disk they just refund you completely.

I have only a few services. I could probably downscale my server.

  • AdGuard DNS

  • Tailscale and Zerotier

  • Open Media Vault

  • Jellyfin

  • Uptime Kuma

  • Graphana / Prometheus

  • Torrent/seed box

All on Proxmox and mirrored ZFS 2 x 20TB

For backups I use FolderSync and the default backup for windows. Super lazy, but I don't want to be the IT support of the family.

You can try DoH to see if it is working.

It's port 443 so it won't get redirected by their filters.

Android uses DoT so maybe that works. Assuming that they don't block port 853.

Try the encrypted DNS option to see if they are blocking all DNS providers or just certain ones.

You can also setup your own encrypted DNS on a VPS if you're feeling brave.

Wait really?

I've only noticed aluminum for drink cans. None of my cans are attracted to a magnet. (Spezi and Fritz-kola)

Although we've been buying bottles more and more.
