This is also why it's a good idea to buy as much storage as you can afford up front: to postpone the eventual expanding/resilvering process.

Yontsey, if you can wait just a bit, there are very often hard drive sales on Black Friday (or Cyber Monday or whatever people call it now). Keep refreshing https://shucks.top (if you're willing to shuck externals) and https://diskprices.com/ (if you want to buy from Amazon) over the next couple of weeks, and you may save several hundred dollars depending on what you're looking for.

The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts. The only way to guarantee thoughtful, informative discussion is to write thoughtful, informative posts. AppleNova is not a real-time chat forum. You have time to compose messages and edit them before and after posting.
