  • This is why it’s important to make backups. If, by any chance you printed your disk configuration before the gpt operation, you want to copy it into a notepad NOW. You can use that to try and recreate your original partition layout after converting the disk back to MBR. Chances are nothing is wiped, except for your disk configuration. No guarantees, though…

    Whatever you do, don’t format anything, as that WILL overwrite your data.



  • Hey, I cleaned the z-axis: no change I replaced the nofep (again): no change I removed my old slicer (Chitubox Basic 1.9.5) and installed the latest (2.1). I cleaned up my profile, so it was vanilla config: what do you know: it seems to work now!

    Still running some prints to monitor any changes, but it’s looking good!

    Thank you for your time!


  • Thanks for taking the time to reply.

    I eventually ended up removing my slicer (Chitubox basic) and install the latest and greatest after cleaning up my profile. So literally starting anew.

    Aside from changing te resin, I didn’t modify any other settings to begin with, so my config was rather vanilla.

    After taking these steps (and cleaning the z-axis and replacing the nofep again) everything seems to be working fine now.

    Cleaning the axis and a new nofep didn’t seem to do anything, so I think it was just a crappy version of the slicer.

  • The question is not which tool should I use?

    The question is what is it that you want to achieve? That will drive your choice of tools.

    I want to mirror my drive can be achieved by a lot of tools. But I want to be able to restore a file I accidentally deleted up to 24 hours with a 1 hour interval is a totally different game.

    For backups I am very fond of restic as it does a lot of things in a simple way: encryption, (incremental) snapshots, mounting of said snapshots, support various storage backends, policy based purging, tagging, …

    Your tool may not be able to do all you need, like automated scheduled backups, so you will need to also learn cron (or whatever scheduler you may have)

    And finally, what about maintenance? What should happen to all those files you’ve synced? How long do you want to keep them?
