1. Bottom M.2 slot partly functional. No SSD inserted there will wake up from suspend/sleep. Top M.2 in use only.
2. Fedora's boot drive.
3. Windows 11's boot drive. Originally on a Corsair M.2, but the discovery of the faulty bottom M.2 slot and me wanting to prioritise Fedora led to it being cloned to my old SATA SSD.
4. Big game storage drive. Actual model is the HDWD220, which is SMR and not what I originally wanted.
5. SATA SSD for speedier loading times in games like Halo MCC. 750GB XFS partition for Linux and a 250GB NTFS partition for Windows games, like Genshin Impact. It makes a very noticeable difference in Genshin.
6. Backup volume for my home dir. Uses Pika Backup from Flathub to automate this.
7. Recently picked up because I wanted to actually try drawing again after stopping around 2018. That and it'd be handy for signing documents and stuff. Multi-purpose, really.

Server Specs
Twitter was acquired by a certain billionaire near the end of 2022, and he has made several extremely controversial changes to the site which hasn't sat well with a lot of people, myself included.The reason why I'm not linking my Twitter account here is because I don't intend to accept any new followers or use it. It's there to hold my username.I primarily reside on the Fediverse now, with Mastodon (glitch-soc edition) and Pixelfed being my two choices.
Where's Twitter?
I take photos. Not too often, but the ones I like the most I upload to my Pixelfed. You can find the link to that on the homepage.
Here I have a list of the gear that I use - camera bodies, lenses and the film stocks I've shot.Note: This page is often not as up to date as my Gemini capsule, which can be accessed using Lagrange or a similar Gemini client at: gemini://gem.kirigiri.meSLR/DSLR Bodies
