Bought a 500gb apple hard drive for my dedicated server for like 20 euro.

Don't have any trays left and want to use it anyways.

I just shoved it in. It's actually working fine now 😅

Apple? Ew...

Or is it "shove"? 🤔

@DewWisp I'll just format it to EXT4 ;)

@linuxxx, good enough.

@DewWisp
Don't shame someone because they're using something you don't like.

@Michelle, it was a joke, and linuxxx seems to have goten it.

@DewWisp (@Michelle) Oh I hate apples guts but this one was very cheap and formatting it works very fine!
(I got the joke yas)

is it a solid state? a hard disk might be weird ifits set in at a weird angle

@linuxxx why not XFS or btrfs

@Haxk20 yes thank you

@Haxk20 @ParkCity I don't know it and I want this fucker to be up and running before tomorrow so no space for experimenting right now :/

Does Apple actually make their own hard drives? I always thought they brought them from another company and rebranded it.

@DuckyMcDuckFace It's an Hitachi haha

@AlexDeLarge
Apple did not make the drive m8, they just put the logo on it.

@Haxk20 I do that a lot and I also don't have any power supply redundancy 😅

"Apple hard drive"?
You mean "hard drive in a box that says compatible with Apple"

Guessing it's not secured down anywhere? I'd recommend you dampen its movement where you can or you'll be saying bye bye to that data sooner than you think.

Friendly advice
