  • Just know that higher RPM doesn’t necessarily mean higher noise. In my experience Helium filled drives can be pretty quiet, and basically all really high capacity drives are helium filled.

    I have an arm of shucked WD drives and while I can hear them from time to time, they’re not bad. Also your case makes a huge difference. Make sure the drives are on rubber isolators, and what they’re mounted on can’t vibrate to make any noise. The only noise I hear from these drives is when they first spin up after being idled.

    Then import on your new community and all of your subscriptions, settings, etc will be migrated over. Comments/posts won’t migrate over, but besides basic user settings followed_communities, saved_posts, saved_comments, blocked_communities, blocked_users, and blocked_instances get copied over. It’s not instantly after it loads. I just tested it and it’s taken about 5 minutes now and it’s still going through my subscriptions (maybe 50/360) and then blocked instances are next and it should be done.

    Double checked and it’s done done now about 13 mintues after I made the comment. So maybe 20 minutes to impot a profile with a large number of subscriptions.
