Yrgnuh on Seagate 20TB BarraCuda 3.5inch SATA Hard Drive (ST20000DM001) $465 + Delivery @ Shopping Express

Home NAS as a media server or something, absolutely great. Something doing production type workloads absolutely not.

But for most users & use cases NAS drives are totally unnecessary.

SS625 on UGREEN 200W USB C Charger, Nexode 8 Ports Charging Station $99.99 Delivered @ UGREEN via Amazon AU

I think it's 1x100w out of any of C1/C2/C3, while the one linked can do 2x100W.

Obviously, depends on if you need 8 ports or only 6, but generally speaking likely.

Saars on Ultra Slim Cat 6 Network Cable 0.5m for $1 (50¢ Each with 10 or More Purchased) + Delivery @ Laser Co

I'm not saying they can or can't do 10GB, but if they can't, then they're not Cat6. They are copper and oil to fit within the gauge spec.…

Saars on Ultra Slim Cat 6 Network Cable 0.5m for $1 (50¢ Each with 10 or More Purchased) + Delivery @ Laser Co

If they're cat 6, then they absolutely should do 10GB at these short lengths. If they can't, then they're not cat 6 compliant.

Is this the one to get?

Shermanpk commented on Sony WH-1000XM6 Premium Noise-Cancelling Headphones Black $605 + Delivery ($0 to Selected Areas) @ MyDeal
Are these much of an upgrade over the MX4's? Wouldn't HATE another pair, but only if it's a significant upgrade.

This isn't buying, it's more like long term rental!

8bitsperbyte on [Prime] Belkin BoostCharge Pro 4-Port GaN Charger 108W (White) $56.86 Delivered with PayTo Payment @ Amazon AU

I wonder if there is a device -- like a capacitor or something, that could be inserted between the power supply and device to bridge the…

Shermanpk commented on [Prime] Novoo 67W USB C Charger with 1 PD 100w Type-C Cable $27.99 Delivered @ Mbest via Amazon AU
Not a sale -- regularly goes down to $27.99. Honestly, it spends about as much time at the $28 price as it does the $40 price.

Can we make a rule that 'deals' must be the lowest price in the last 12 months!

Is this the full version, or the theatrical release?

What's this mean, they're blocking Plex, or Jellyfin, or what?

IMO, the problem is often there is pretty limited difference between good quality and poor quality racks. Most unfortunately, the…

Not bad. But I'd rather go with a used, ex corporate switch.

5x 1GB unmanaged switch, the brand doesn't matter... If it was more complex, or managed then, paying for a brand might matter. But no…

Not defending the 'bargain' but they are (likely to be) very good headphones. I got the MX4's a e years about now for like $200. If these…

ad62623 on [Recertified] Seagate EXOS 16TB SATA ST16000NM000J $320 Delivered @ East Digital

Not sure, but probably inspect it, wipe it, test it, give it a wipe down... And put a sticker on it.

That's a pretty small use case, if you're using it 'to use it' you'd be better using & learning something else because Broadcom will more…

No. Because the reason to use this license is to learn ESXi, but when most of the industry is moving to other solutions, not much point in…
