Announcing the DATA DUPLICATION VILLAGE at DEF CON 23
New for DEF CON 23 is the evolution of the last years DEF CON Media server drive duplication into the data duplication village.
HERE IS HOW IT WILL WORK
DEF CON will provide a core set of drive duplicators as well as content. It will be a first come, first served situation. Bring and label your 6TB SATA blank drives, and put them in the queue for the data you want and 14 hours later it is done.
WHAT TO BRING
_ 6TB SATA3 new drive(s) - If you want a full copy of everything you will need three.
_ Any data you want to contribute to be shared, in USB, HDD, or DVD format
You can both contribute data to be duplicated, as well as bring blank drives to get copies and help spread the knowledge.
Those who want to share their own collections or help with duplication are encouraged to bring their own collections and drive dupers. If your collection is smaller we are thinking of getting some USB thumb drive duplicators for smaller batches. We also will have a DVD duper tower, so bring those legacy DVDs.
THE DATA DUMP
Here is what we are planning to make available:
6TB drive 1-3: All past hacking convention videos that DT could find, built on last years collection
6TB drive 2-3: freerainbowtables.com hash tables (1-2)
6TB drive 3-3: GSM A5/1 hash tables plus remaining freerainbowtables.com data (2-2)
WANT TO ADD TO THE DATA DUMP?
It's not too late. Know of a collection you want included? A repository you want mirrored? Post here with a link and I'll let you know if it makes it on the drive.
HOW IT WORKS
Label your drive(s) with your name, which collection number you want on it, how to contact you, and then check it in. It will be put in the queue for duplication on a first come - first served basis.
Bring your own drive duplicators and help share the data for more people. Hang out, make friends!
NOTES
Duplicating a 6TB (About 5.46 usable) drive at ~110 Megabytes a second comes out to about 13.8 hours. I'll know more once I to a test duplication. This means the first dupe will start early in the morning, and the second dupe late at night. We will create a schedule so you know when the deadlines to check in drive is.
Last year we had four 1:11 duplication towers going all con long. This year we are switching to a cheaper solution with only two towers and a whole bunch of 1:5 duplicators. Last year we had 44 drives maximum duplicating at a time. This year the goal is to increase that to over 60.
OK, this is the initial announcement, fire away with any questions!
