To add to your decision paralysis, a USB 6 bay DAS is cheap and power efficient solution.

Personally, I have a SSD with a 4-3-1 backup for important files and a 16 TB hdd with a 2-2-0 backup for unimportant files.

Regardless of what you go with, I'd recommend buying less quantity of higher capacity drives (14+ TB) instead of more smaller capacity drives. I'd also make sure you have a backup strategy in place first, and then worry about RAID.

    Vaultwarden vs KeePassXC for extreme security (lemmy.ml)
     

    I was thinking about how all of my passwords are compromised if I have malware on my system. It made me wonder, does Vaultwarden or KeePassXC/KeePassDX offer better protection on a malware infected system?

    Vaultwarden

    • Only accessed locally via LAN/VPN
    • Set up for 2 factor authentication using WebAuthn (FIDO)

    KeePasssXC/KeePassDX

    • Synced locally via syncthing
    • Set up for 2 factor authentication using HMAC-SHA1 Challenge-Response
    • All clients blocked from internet access

    I don't use browser extensions and I manually copy/paste my passwords to fill in entries.

    KeePass has good memory protection, but the 2FA can be read from USB and doesn't change every time the database is decrypted. Vaultwarden enables the more secure FIDO2 2FA, but to my knowledge has less secure memory management as the entire entire database is decrypted on unlock.

    Who makes Nix packages? (lemmy.ml)
     

    I'm new to Nix and wanted to get my feet wet by using the Nix package manager. However, I wasn't sure how these packages were made. Are these packaged by the community? Who do I need to "trust" when installing these packages? In general, I was looking for info on how nix packages are made and maintained.
