Fedora drive is a btrfs pool with subvolumes for /, /home, /home/<main user>/DATA ~10 % of the disksize is for overprovisioning and not (!) in the pool > 2) Do you have multiple drives (SSD/Sata)? 2 ssd's (one F34, second win 8.1) 1 external rotating HD (Backup) > 3) Is OS on one drive, apps/data on the other? see 1) /home/<main user>/DATA was grown as separat, esp. for new installs without need to shovel big data around (just unmount/unplug, (re-)install OS, remount) > 4) Do you switch between OS(es)? umh, no, I start Win 8.1 via vbox without special reboot into it. I just staying in Fedora - boot files generated with: VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename ./Win_RAW.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sdX -partitions 1,2 -relative - then vbox pointing to that files/disk > 5) What's your "backup" process/strategy? - weekly rsync to an external rotating HD of /boot, /etc, /home, /lib/modules, /root, /var/www, /var/lib/radical > 6) What's your "update" strategy(ies)? I'm not clear what you mean here, but I mostly follow what Fedora/Kernel people "throw into internet" > > I'm looking to get a new system > AMD/ryzen -8core 16G 256G SSD - 1TBSata > get a 500 GB SSD: - often higher TBW - often faster then 256 - to get ~10 % of the unused disk size for "overprovisioning" into your account > I realize that I haven't changed in >10 years, so now is probably a > good time get up to date on a number of things! > > thanks for your insights _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
