Now I get why people are reluctant to use SDs in their #RaspberryPi. I have what's quite clearly a worn or corrupted SD (which is used for the whole filesystem). I'm getting #dpkg fatal errors, terminal quirks and all sorts of funny business. Fingers crossed a #fsck can do the trick. If not, I'll need to reinstall everything :( I think I should invest in an m.2 adapter or just plug in a spare SSD via USB and mount the filesystem on that. Any better suggestions? I use this Pi 24/7 for #DNS.
@syntax I would go for SSD and zfs or btrfs filesystems, filesystems that have snapshot abilities to restore your server quickly if something goes terribly wrong, you could even plug in some HDD and sync those snapshots to it when you take them in case of full disk corruption.
@m_svo @syntax Its reliability depends on its purpose, I have RPi with SD for 3.5 years and had no problems with it. PiHole doesn't need excessive write to disk (if you disable dns logs) so it should be reliable for PiHole purpose. As for Nextcloud you definitely need some SSD for read/write speeds, I think that RPi4 can manage Nextcloud pretty well, I'm yet to try it when I get one.
@nikolal @syntax
The thing is, Nextcloud has a built in OnlyOffice server (by default) starting from NC 19 I think. Previously you needed a separate server for it.
NC 20 has even more features (I did not yet upgrade).
With such rapid growth, I would not count on RPi 4 to handle NC now, or maybe not in near future. I may be wrong though, I never owned an RPi myself.
