  • Java 8 was a thing for a long time (source administered Hadoop clusters that were - and possibly still are - stuck on Java 8).

    Java 8 was analogous to 1.8…for reasons.

    I wanna say Java 11 (the version after 8) came out around 2011? After that the release cadence was somewhat steady. I think Java 21 landed around 2021?

    (Note: I refuse to actually look any of this up.)

    Edit: my refusal to look anything up immediately bites as someone else pointed out:

    1. There was a Java 10
    2. It was released in 2018.
    3. Both of these facts helped me remember Java 9 being released.

  • btrfs can pool disks just fine. Create a RAID nice and quick.

    There’s also btrfs send and receive. Which may be what you need for shipping the data? You can use SSH for a secure write…

    If this is a one-time copy, I’d strongly consider just syncing the data vs. shipping drives (which, as people have pointed out, may have serious reliabilty concerns).

    Otherwise, if you must ship, I’d say the best move is two copies of each piece of data, so any single drive failing in shipping isn’t a big deal. But not a RAID. Just two literal copies on two separate drives. Simplest way to ensure some redundancy.
