No? You’ll be required to pay GST when it’s imported (it is either added to your price and collected at checkout, or it will be held in…

It’s either a worldwide warranty (so you are dealing with Seagate in Singapore) or it’s a vendor warranty so you’re dealing with the…

It’s a single hard disk. Current (spinning) disk technology is up around 40T per single drive now. Flash drives are manufactured to 50T…

“Is it possible”? Yes. “Is it sensible”? No Hope that helps.

You buy brand new time bombs? I guess that is a choice. 😃

There are still a lot of devices and adapters that will work with VGA - even in 2025.

Yeah nah. It depends on the metric you’re measuring. - Sequential read? (7500Mbyte/sec vs 200Mbyte/sec) - Write speed? - Random…

I'd agree that SSDs are around 4x HDD - and I'd also agree that the price is going to keep falling (it was 5x not that long ago and 10x…

The 14T as opposed to the 18T? I figured a lot of people go up rather than down :-)

Why? And you didn't make it clear if you're referring to Google's AI results or an actual result from the search engine.. which in turn…

It's not bad! The 16T came in at $16.88/Terabyte. The 18T is $17.94/Terabyte. This is 6.2% more expensive (per Terabyte) for the 18T drive…

That's not exactly true. The next generation of hard disks are now well into production and offer comparable performance to low end (SATA)…

This is a weird argument/thread. It's a "thunderbolt" dock. Not a "Surface" dock. It can be "exclusively designed*" for any platform and…

Both! For the latter, kids don’t understand how much momentum a greyhound has when moving and injury to both is quite a real possibility…

We’ve had greyhounds that interacted well with small kids but kids can damage them.. so supervision is mandatory (as it should be with…

1D enabled. Also 1H. 1M and 1I. Gimme a HDMI!

If it had been $8 we would have gone! As it was (we were out on the road) we stopped at a bakery and bought about $10 of freshly baked…

2 small big mac meals for $15.49 here. It means we have had no reason to get Maccas for lunch yesterday.. so that’s good I guess.

It’s very much aimed at the SME market. At the S side that’s usually managed by someone else and the M side they have an in-house team.…

Yes. It’s worth the point that the USG can do near line rate routing but not with IDS running. But as it’s EOL and presumably no…

Worth pointing out the cost of a CloudKey (Gen2) is between $500-$600. A USG (3P) is now EOL and is really overkill for a standard…

For weight, yes. The 4Ah lasts longer than the 2Ah (obviously) for led lamps. Fairly linear.

A standard trick with Ryobi batteries (and really any battery) is not to put them on the charger when fully discharged and still hot. Wait…

2Ah is better for drills and other tools where you don’t want to lug the weight of the 4Ah around. Especially when you’re working at…

Listing says 28T but specifications says 24T (twice). It’s difficult to work out if this is a translation (formatted/unformatted) error…

Not if you are doing it correctly. It’s always a pain to deal with if you are doing it wrong (or not doing anything to create data…

You don’t need this to be in RAID (of any type) unless you have a need for data availability - which is something quite different to data…

I literally just bought a 20T external from Amazon and I would have absolutely bought this (assuming warranty support etc checked out).

I have doubts that if Amazon is shipping this they aren’t charging and collecting GST? Has anyone bought one and verified this?

Link goes to a product not found notice. Which also shows the same product as an alternative. Which if clicked takes you to a product not…
