Is time running out for QM2?

Is time running out for the last true ocean liner, Queen Mary 2?

This week in The Big Cruise Podcast listener Brad asked that exact question.

Chris Frame answers this listener question on QM2's 20th anniversary year, and looks at whether or not Cunard will ever build a replacement.

Another return to Living Ocean liners for me this time with one of the more modern liners that is the only one currently in service. RMS Queen Mary 2 who I've drawn relaxing a bay somewhere in America, after an Atlantic crossing not far from New York. While the sun is setting behind her, as she drifts off to the peaceful sounds of the waves surrounding her. Art © GreatEasternJ69

QNAP TS-h1277XU-RPを購入

OSがQTSでも満足してたんだけどQuTS heroがどうしても使ってみたかったんじゃ。ZFS使いたいならお高いマシン買わずにTrueNASでも使っておけ！的な気もするけど、そっちはDELLのラックマウント鯖に使用済みなのでQNAP謹���のOSで使ってみたかったんだ。

TS-h1277XU-RP

マシンスッペクは、AMD Ryzen7 3700Xで自宅のメインマシンのAMD Ryzen7 5700Xの前任となる。それなりに最新CPU。AMD系が残念なのは省電力版が同じソケットでは出ていないことかな。そのため省電力版への換装は無理となる。

CK32GX2-D4UE3200

メモリは格安モデルなので、16GB×2の32GB。スロットに空きがあるので、32GB×2の64GBを追加でご用意。ちゃんとECC付のを選んでみた。全てのHDDドライブ埋めても自宅で使うにはそのままでも十だろうけど、せっかくなので増強。これで32GB+64GBで96GBに。

最新モデルだとマザーボードにNVMeスロットがあるんだけど、このモデル搭載するには追加のカードを挿さないとならない。システム用のドライブはSSD以上を推奨なので、SSDでraid1組むと2ドライブ消費することになってしまう。

QNAP QDA-A2AR

そこでSSD×2をraid1で3.5インチドライブに収納できるこれが活きる時がきた。これにシステムを入れれば１ドライブの消費で済むし、raid1も組める。しかもQNAP純正でOS側からもraid1と認識してくれる優れもの。

バックアップやファイル移動の際に必要かとも思ったので10TBのHDDも追加購入。

TVS-1282のファイルを追加したHDDやほかのNASに移動させてHDDを引っこ抜く。8TBをほぼメインで組んでいたので、すべてのHDDをraid6で組む設定で起動させる。順調に引っ越しが済んだら10TBのHDDもraid6に組み込む。

QNAP QM2-2P-384A

キャッシュ用にSSD拡張カードもお引越し。MVMeが4枚乗るやつだとシステムとキャッシュそれぞれでraid1が組めたんだろうけどお高いので使いまわし。仕方ないね。

現状はこんな感じ。8TBは7TB弱、10TBは9TB弱と1割天使に持っていかれる。しかもraid6を組むにあたり8TBがあるのために10TBは8TBとして認識。それでも40TBの1ドライブには夢があるね。そして空きドライブがまだ３つ。１ドライブはホットスペア入れるとしても2ドライブ余る余裕の仕様。

標準でSFP+が2つあるのもありがたい。

QNAP RAIL-B02

ラックレールを取り付けてラックへ納品。

ラッキング終わって満足。常時稼働時の騒音はあるけど、以前下にあるDELLの鯖が常時稼働してる時よりは静かなので気にする程でもないかな。ちゃんと温度管理できればファンの回転数も下がるので夏場をどうするかだけ考えよう。

Do you know of any rumors of more ocean liner projects in the works? Or is it still too unprofitable at the moment?

So, in terms of "modern" ocean liners that are still in service, pretty much the only name in the game is the RMS Queen Mary 2. TECHNICALLY the MV Astoria WAS an ocean liner, formerly the Stockholm, but she was converted into a cruise ship. As far as I know, she's been laid up since 2021 anyway. I don't know of any future ocean liners in development (if there are any), but as I detailed in a previous post, I do suspect they'll be making somewhat of a comeback. In terms of classic liners, you have a few more options. The RMS Queen Mary is semi-permanently docked in Long Beach California, and over the past few years she's undergone some incredible renovations to preserve and restore her. Having been launched in 1935, she's the oldest liner that I know of to survive to the modern day. The SS United States is currently laid up in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. She's nearly been scrapped on several occasions, and her interiors were yanked out and auctioned off, leaving her as pretty much an empty shell. She's in a very sorry state at the moment, but there are plans by the SS United States Conservancy to redevelop her into a floating hotel like the Queen Mary. Finally, much like the Queen Mary, the RMS Queen Elizabeth 2 has been preserved as a floating hotel. Unfortunately, she's in Dubai, and from what I've heard, it can be very dangerous for members of the LGBT community there. I don't know specifics though. Also, from what I've heard, she's not in nearly as good shape as the Queen Mary, despite the decades of neglect, compared to the QE2, which has only been open for a few years and is comparatively much younger. So if you want to take a trans Atlantic crossing at the moment, your only option is the Queen Mary 2 at the moment. I've heard some cruise ships make OCCASIONAL crossings, but if they're open for bookings, I wouldn't reccomend it. Cruise ships aren't designed for that, and are famously unstable even in calm weather. Comparatively, frequent cruisers often praise the QM2, because they say she's so stable they often forget they aren't on land.

Frederick Banbury: “You’re FRIENDS??? with an OCEAN LINER???? But you aren’t even a boat train!”

Flying Scotsman: “Banbury i love you (/i say this with disrespect) but me and Queen Mary are the besties of friends.”

Frederick Banbury: “I’m not even gonna ask how you two met cause that won’t make any sense.”

#corejo talks #i think Scotsman would be friends with QM2 as well

You’ve never seen Titanic’s Grand Staircase!

You've never seen a photo of Titanic's Grand Staircase, or many other famous spaces aboard the ship.

Most of the photos of Titanic's iconic interior were actually photos taken of the Olympic! Learn why in this new video short.

I recently gave a lecture about Titanic to a packed out audience on Cunard’s Queen Victoria and this is what amazed people the most!

Saw a hilarious tweet by "LordHamMercury," talking about Queen Elizabeth II's 3rd cousin, Queen Margrethe II, abdicating after 52 years on the throne: "I just realized Queen Margarethe gave Denmark her two week notice." 🤣 I wish QM2 of Denmark a happy retirement!

Hi Nonny,

I am laughing at that tweet. I assume that two weeks notice is the standard for leaving a job in the country the tweeter lives in (the accepted standard for high level jobs in my country is one month or more).

I am worried about Queen Margarethe. I hope she has a good retirement and is not leaving because of e.g. health issues which would affect her retirement.

They should find another ocean liner so that qm2 can be carefully mated like a pair of pandas in a zoo and they can have lots of little rowboat babies that grow up to be more liners
