"Free" as it isn't the renters responsibility. If something breaks they call the landlord and say fix it.

Obviously the maintenance cost will be baked into the rent cost, or as an added fee as shown in your example.

    They do create value. They provide maintenance free housing as well as short term housing (short term as in 1-3 years.) Not everyone wants to stay in the same location for 5+ years. If you move around alot It you want to rent is usually the better option.

    Now sure you could argue they are over charging for that service but that doesn't mean they aren't providing value.

    The only reason why we are having issues is because there is a housing shortage that is raising the price and large companies have taken advantage of this by buying up all the houses at the crazy price and renting them out at crazy rent prices eating up the market for actual people to want to buy a house.

    I just ordered 6 16TB drives to upgrade my 8 4TB drives.

    My server doesn't have any more room for expansion.

    My Question is what is the best way to replace the 8 4TB drive with the new 6 16TB drives?

    I was thinking of setting up a secondary server put the 6 16TB drives in that and copy the data over. Then just remove the 8 4TB pool and swap the drives around then add the 6 6TB pool.

    However I am guessing this method might screw up my shares and settings I have on the existing pool.

    Any ideas? Thanks
