Did I just brick my SAS drive?
I was trying to make a pool with the other 5 drives and this one kept giving errors. As a completer beginner I turned to gpt…
What can I do? Is that drive bricked for good?
Don’t clown on me, I understand my mistake in running shell scripts from Ai…
Edit: EMPTY DRIVES NO DATA
The initial error was:
Edit: sde and SDA are the same drive, name just changed for some reason And also I know it was 100% my fault and preventable 😞
I started my self hosting journey a bit over a year ago. Now I host and maintain multiple services for me and my family. 1000% absolutely could not have set it all up without ChatGPT. Just no way.
Thing is, I’m not a computer beginner. I’d confidently say I’m a moderately advanced computer user with a decent understanding of Linux/BSD and POSIX shell. I used ChatGPT to learn how to set things up gradually. Yes, things did break a couple of times and I spent a few late nights fixing them, but I never ran commands that I knew were irreversible until I fully understood what they did. This cautiousness comes with experience.
So, unlike many, I do encourage the use of ChatGPT for assisting with computer related projects, just know your abilities and don’t trust the robot unconditionally.
Im on the same boat. Especiakly claude opus 4.5 writes better scripts in 20s than i could in 2 hours of web search and debugging
For critical baremetal/live situations i will use the docs and/or use AI for debugging help only.
By the time you ask AI you could just read the docs
AI is so much faster than reading docs. And you get context specific responses that you can drill into. When used correctly it’s very useful.
This was using it… incorrectly though…
I support this!! 👍
AI is a tool like a hammer, you can hit a steel nail with it or a finger nail. It depends completely on you. Don’t be fooled by its “thinking” ability…
