½TB nvme SSD for the OS and any system/user level binary

1TB sata SSD for code projects, docker, and videogames

10tb HDD for just having a massive amount of fairly stable storage space. I gotta tell you I sleep really well knowing that at 4 in the morning a compressed disk image of my work SSD is being written to the hard drive.

For your education:

Pacman like many other package managers tries to minimize network queries, to do this you download a manifest of every package available and its installation instructions. -Sy downloads the latest manifest from all of your pacman repos, -u installs the packages whose “version” field changed between the old and new manifests.

These error messages show that the domain name the manifest had for your package was unavailable, this is why you should check for updates.

Makes it easier to distribute and set up
