buffalo bill commented on XFX Radeon RX 580 GTS XXX Edition OC+ 8GB Video Card $159 + Postage ($0 VIC/NSW/QLD C&C / in-Store/ $250 Metro Order) @ Scorptec
What processor would you recommend OP? An i5-7400 or perhaps a Ryzen 1600? 8gb ram should be plenty and i already have a 250GB sata ssd.

buffalo bill commented on Boost Mobile $57 Cashback on 290GB 12-Month Expiry Prepaid SIM for $255 (Ongoing 240GB for $300) Delivered @ TopCashback AU
TopCashback biggest load of crap. Basically assume it won't happen and don't factor it into the deal.

30 day activation (plus other exclusions) is big caveat to this deal.

It'll be fine for a NAS. The problem is people use the term NAS now but they mean anything from media server to full blown home lab running…

Yeah there are pros and cons for sure. Although I'd take non-hot swappable over non-recognised drives like the above comment.
