Thanks, sir. No measuring sticks. I'm glad you are making headway on your goals. I know some of them are tough ones

Yeah and tonight, wiping partition headers on both disks that store my Bitcoin wallet, and I didn't insure against this... I feel very small and stupid right now.
Oh no! So many questions...
Yeah, if it's gone I can't even make this month's rent
Ouch! We're our own worst enemies sometimes. Good luck sounds shallow, but... good luck
It means a lot, I sure am getting a lesson today
Bitcoin core doesn't do HD by default and I hadn't actually backed dat ass up lol
I've had generally fortunate experiences in prior data loss recovery incidents so I am optimistic, but some days the bomb has your name on it
Good chance of at least a partial recovery... A simple tool that just detects possible wallets showed dozens on both disks and I will soon have both fully duplicated
My likely worst case is losing my September's paycheck... But I hadn't touched that utxo and made a dozen others later so likely that even is there... Anyway, still in process... 4tb is a long time to copy, even when writing to a 3500mb/s nvme
