Those of you getting this.. where are you getting your drives, and what capacity are they?

Isn't powerful enough for what? Should be more than fine for most users.

No, sorry, I'm not going to change my alerts. Your "other deals" would have already triggered an alert when they were originally posted,…

Yep I'm hesitant to give them any business, this is so annoying.

Linux is decent for most gaming nowadays. Steam compatibility layer helps a lot.

I've got a 7th gen iPad that I use once in a while to watch a movie or whatever and it is paiiiiinfully slow. I don't think it's worth $199…

Love the movie and will prob end up watching it (once again) but isn't posting a "free with ads" deal kind of like the same as saying "this…

Pretty sure I know the answer already is either 0 or 1, but how many internal 3.5" bays in case I wanna do some light nas duties with this…

Ahh yes AI, the thing that is famously often wrong about even basic things

Literally the only sata ssd I've ever had straight up die on me was one from SP. Granted it was a 128 GB and may have had different guts…

I have the earlier version of this Topton box with a Celeron N5105 in it running Opnsense on bare metal and it's been perfectly stable for…

you havent worked at a startup until youve had a 1:1 in a poang chair to tell you all the things you're doing wrong

wait for the m5 macbook air tbh

Yeah I know, and I've done that before (suspended drives internally with bungee cables) but it'd be nice to have

I was gonna say "at least it's got some 3.5 bays for a NAS setup" but I checked and it's only got 2 :\ You'd think with a case that huge…

Hasn't been true for like 20 years. These things throttle themselves and shut down now

Ok yeah, you seem to be right. Thanks for the reply, cheers

Is this about as low as ANA gets? Wife wants specifically nonstop ANA for our trip later this year and I'm wondering if I should pull the…

Yes of course, agreed on the 6a nowadays. I'm just showing my age with the 5e :)

I had nearly the same situation (except it was maybe 10m instead of 15) and after having tried wireless bridges and repeaters and such from…

in terms of these drives, yes, 3.0 is faster than their xfer speed so 3.1 or 3.2 won't matter. but pretty disingenuous statement taken at…

Great lesson here in not relying on AI for advice

I used to do a stir fry of rice, cubed spam, canned pineapple, some veg (sugar snap peas or just regular peas usually) and some soy sauce.…

I find their dedication to the desaturated famicom colors kind of endearing tbh. But yeah it matches with nothing

Did not expect to open a thread about hungry jacks and see debate class going on in full force. Wow

This is really anecdotal but I've had 4 sandisk usbs around my home office for probably 5-7 years now using them as OS install drives and…

Any known compatibility issues with unraid?

You seem to be confusing wifi hotspot with travel router, they're two different things

It's worth noting that the non-deluxe edition of SE5 is included with xbox PC game pass at the moment, in case you have a subscription and…

HL2 is so great. I'll always love it. Such fond memories of my first playthrough........... 20 years ago :(
