Personally, I would use this.... *nowhere.* Powerstrip made by a company that doesn't even bother coming up with a proper name, *connected…

I deleted the comment- OP specifies that it's a SATA disk and not SAS. Still, probably worth confirming.

Do you pop these things open and look at the internals?

Why use a degradable battery instead of just charging via the 12V cigarette lighter socket?

I rather suspect that iodine buffered salt is to stave of problems in people with really, really poor diets. What do we have to worry about…

Bork bork bork!

It was OOS, then went back in stock 10 minutes later. Weird.

Perhaps you haven't realised this, but even the fairly basic Japanese style ones have multiple levels of pressure control. Not really sure…

Yeah, that's the problem though. We don't have taps in the right spot, and we're not going to run hoses and electrical extension cords…

There's a poster here called... uh... smoothcactus(?) who has done some teardowns and recommendations.

Are the NAS disks going to be able to support more thatn 1Gbps sustained- are you running SSDs?

So this whole little digression is because you misuse the term 'loyal.' It seems like you were trying to make the point "buy better stuff…

Your entire digression here is almost incoherent, it's almost like you're using words in a way that nobody else does. **So, why is it worth…

What are you talking about- how does being loyal to a consumer electronics conglomerate reward you?

They only get out of date if the owners are so tech clueless that they rely on the crappy built-in apps. The panels don't go out of date.…

Depends on the linen. Better quality is less scratchy. Off memory the Uniqlo/Muji stuff is particularly scratchy.
