Tyler@tyler@nicecrew.digital (2026-06-06 12:20:11) Just wanted to share a side project of mine, rSpektrum, if anyone has a use for this software.

It's a pretty nice spectrogram viewer, I had to make one myself because all the current available options kind of suck or aren't maintained anymore. (spek, inspectrum, etc) and I was inspired by Sebastian Lague's "Coding Adventure: Analyzing Audio" video on youtube (watch?v=08mmKNLQVHU) and stole some of the concepts he wrote in Unity C# and ported them to C/Raylib and just kind of went crazy from there.

Additionally, that second connector looks to go to a small board on the back that provides an RJ45 connector, possibly for firmware updates or drive maintenance of some kind. Shouldn’t be necessary for basic drive use.

Next to hook it up and test! ---Attachments--- image: https://thegayagenda.fans/files/3a46895a-3ee6-47cd-ae60-a351f0402d0c.webp

The drive was in there nice and solid, so I figured it was fastened in with screws.
Nah, just with this metal bracket that’s sitting in the drive’s screw holes. ---Attachments--- image: https://thegayagenda.fans/files/webpublic-2a6063e4-f97a-45f6-a2bf-3fe0441bc219.jpg

Reply to @maddy@thegayagenda.fans Maddy 🏳️‍⚧️ - Floofy fops waff :neofox_floof:@maddy@thegayagenda.fans (2026-06-04 08:03:19) My parents often told me to “slow down” when I was eating dinner, living with them.

It clearly never worked.

Anyway, here's what I'm dealing with, before tearing it down further. I don't think that connector beside the SAS connection will fit on the LTO 6 drive - they look to have a different pin count and/or connector shape.

I'll see if I can get away with just plugging in the drive with SAS alone. ---Attachments--- image: https://thegayagenda.fans/files/webpublic-57718228-56d3-49f9-b20e-244ddfbe9027.jpg

I'm taking a break to eat dinner before I get absorbed in this, but on an initial glance, it looks pretty promising!

Will continue and show some pictures shortly. ​:neofox_happy:​

It's a good thing I have a bit for that, but that's a dick move.

I assume there's basically just a passthrough SAS connection to the eSAS plugs on the back. We'll see.

I just started it around bedtime, so I didn't see it complete until this morning. ---Attachments--- image: https://thegayagenda.fans/files/d05370c8-ca31-4f6b-a112-28bcbbe73c39.webp

Reply to @maddy@thegayagenda.fans Maddy 🏳️‍⚧️ - Floofy fops waff :neofox_floof:@maddy@thegayagenda.fans (2026-06-03 23:06:26) The 'dashboard' software that works with my PowerVault 124T and its LTO 5 drive doesn't seem to want to work with this tape drive, so I can't read its lifetime usage stats, but I'll hopefully be able to check that out later when I do some digging.

Might have to create an IBM account just so I can download some software from their site. >.>

Reply to @maddy@thegayagenda.fans Maddy 🏳️‍⚧️ - Floofy fops waff :neofox_floof:@maddy@thegayagenda.fans (2026-06-03 23:03:52) Did some light testing of the new (to me) drive late last night. Ran a cleaning tape successfully, so I tossed in an LTO 4 tape I wasn’t afraid to lose, and threw together a backup job to use up most of the tape. It ran overnight successfully! ​:neofox_aww:​

The drive shows up as an IBM ULT3580-TD5 on my computer. ---Attachments--- image: https://thegayagenda.fans/files/webpublic-391dabcd-3505-4f29-a0e3-ac5ba90bd590.jpg

baksignal@animesh@mastodon.social (2026-06-03 16:37:54) "Programming is building a mental model. It is not mechanical code production. The shared mental model in developers' minds is the real product. A program is "living" only while the team understands this theory. When programmers leave, it becomes "dead". Without the original theory, new maintainers treat software as a black box, creating patchwork fixes that cause side effects and architectural decay."

Absolute truth.

Originally from Peter Naur's "Programming as Theory Building" (1985)

Reply to @maddy@thegayagenda.fans Maddy 🏳️‍⚧️ - Floofy fops waff :neofox_floof:@maddy@thegayagenda.fans (2026-06-03 02:29:37) I got the PowerVault 124T with an LTO 5 drive from my last job for free, and now my buddy offered me a desktop LTO 5 eSAS tape drive that was otherwise on its way to be disposed of.

I bought an internal 5.25" SAS LTO 6 drive off a recycler, untested, for ~$80. I lucked out, and it works fine, despite some bent metal on the chassis.

Haven't had any luck getting a deal on anything newer yet, but I'm aiming for LTO 8 to be my next step up, if the price is right.

Maddy 🏳️‍⚧️ - Floofy fops waff :neofox_floof:@maddy@thegayagenda.fans (2026-06-03 02:00:58) If I had a nickel for every time I’ve been offered an LTO 5 tape drive for free, I’d have two nickels.

…which isn’t a lot, but it’s wild that it has happened twice!

I could imagine that thing collects a bunch of edible tasty goodies, must be like a buffet bucket

Reply to @lmorchard@masto.hackers.town Les Orchard@lmorchard@masto.hackers.town (2026-06-03 01:20:30) Like, part of me wants to be mad - those plants weren't free and they keep pulling up the cords & hoses to the waterworks - but it looks like they're having a lot of fun?

Reply to @lmorchard@masto.hackers.town Les Orchard@lmorchard@masto.hackers.town (2026-06-03 01:18:06) So, last week, we put some plants in the pond, but woke up the next day to find them all shredded and the fountain pump stuff pulled out of the water.

I put up a camera and caught the pond bandit last night 🦝 ---Attachments--- video: https://cdn.masto.host/mastohackerstown/media_attachments/files/116/681/414/031/810/534/original/33acaceab5f3cb8b.mp4
