==== Mailing List ====
I maintain a mailing list that I send out to a few days before each meeting, if you want on that list, let me know at President at CLUG dot org. I never reveal addresses to anyone, if you want to get in touch with someone, let me know and I'll e-mail that member, giving them your address.

=== A typical message looks like; ===
The next meeting is this Saturday, August 26th, 2023, from 10:30 am. until 12:00 Noon.

This meeting will be talking about a home fileserver, I started collecting parts a while ago, and now have enough of the parts to show, ask for comments and criticisms, and if anybody has suggestions. I'll be trying a few things with the hardware before putting it to use.

At this point, I'm planning for 40TB of raw storage in a 9 inch cube, but that can change as well.

This meeting is at the Madeira Ridge Branch Library Meeting Room, and Zoom.

The Madeira Branch Library is located at 7200 Miami Ave, Cincinnati, Ohio 45243\\

=== And, a rare follow up message; ===
The last meeting was this Saturday, August 26th, 2023

I got more attendees than I expected, and I guess you're wondering about the hardware I brought, so this e-mail is to go over that list, along with costs;

I'll get the video of the meeting up on the clug.org site tonight.

Tiny NAS as I'm building it.....\\
If I built this as a 50TB system, the drives would be $949.95\\
At this point, I only have one drive, every two weeks (Payday), I'll purchase another drive until
I have the set. Do NOT purchase all your drives from the same lot, either stagger the purchase, or buy them through multiple channels. I haven't actually gotten the fan listed below, but will.

I plan on putting 2x 2TB nvme drives in this thing, but I'm still wiggling hardware around.\\
