Want to echo what was said here. RAID is not a backup solution. RAID is for always on capability. Do not use RAID as a way to keep valuable data safe. Just have double the drive space and keep a backup of the data on the second drive.

That makes more sense, and a bit beyond my depth as well. But this is not the sites issue at this point, just some honest questions about the online fix.
I was under the impression we needed the online fix for it to work with other legitimate players. It doesn’t make sense to have an online fix if one isn’t needed. I’ll look into that part more, but I can see it being titled ransomware if they redirect queries to another server to make them go to the legit server and bypass the legit check.
Still depends on if we needed the online fix or not from the beginning, and then the question becomes, “how did they make the online check work, and where does it redirect to?”

I see nothing in the virustotal results that I would be concerned with. The only file with issues is the online fix, which makes sense that it will find something about it, because most cracks will show some false positives. Take a look at the results and check what it says.

Thanks for including the prompt. Would you be willing to share what model you are using?

Not at all what he said, great “quote”

Not that big of a deal when it is a backup. Raid is not a backup solution, it is a 24/7 uptime solution. If the main drive dies with JBOD, then you have the backup. If a backup drive fails, then you still have the main. Trick is to ensure any drive issues are dealt with immediately and no backup runs if there is a smart error or similar on any drive.

So having software that monitors drive health and email/notifies you is necessary.

Secondary benefit of JBOD is all drives in a pool are still readable separately.

And so we have the part I was worried about. This is becoming a “my secret formula” instead of sharing and helping others get better and share in the interest of creation. Personally I disagree with you on the premise that we should be helping others get better. Just sharing the prompts and the model used isn’t the ticket to the kingdom, but it does help people start to shape their own prompts.

For instance, using less iterations (15) sometimes gets a better result than using more (50). Didn’t know this until I saw someone who shared their experience. But that doesn’t give me the secret to make exactly the same images as them.

Something I wish we could see in the description of the creations being posted is the prompt, which model was used, and some of the general settings like iterations to help others who are struggling to get their generated pictures to look realistic.
