Insignia™ - 2-Bay HDD docking station
Was thinking about buying the Amazon branded enclosure, but it costs $30, and doesn't look great. So I just bought the Insignia hard drive dock instead. Now ...
OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual
That might be the only decent dual bay 3.5" enclosure. There is a review on the single bay one, that says it's cheap junk. I wouldn't consider it cheap thoug...
I bought the Raspberry Pi’s external drive in 2020
How long do external drives last? Depends how shitty the drive in it is. Funny on some SanDick drive, they claim because the enclosure is well built and meta...
How many children have to die before republicans pass gun control laws?
They claim to care about life. They sure don't care about the children and adults that died in the shooting in Texas. They won't pass gun control laws, as th...
Lucky
Unlocked whatever was preventing my chair from reclining, not the one for the TV, the computer chair. Well, I can't seem to get it to go up or down anymore. ...
Toshiba might be cheaper if you want 7200 RPM
You don't need a fast drive for a backup drive though. No idea how reliable they are either. But I don't own any 3.5" Toshiba drives, or I don't think I do. ...
If Toshiba drives were cheaper
I'd buy one. I suppose non NAS drives from them might be. The cheapest one I see on Amazon for 6 TB, that is a NAS drive, is the WD SMR one. Which would prob...
Nice my stalker might be gone
0 visits today, according to Jetpack. Does that mean the stalker went away? Perhaps a post I deleted made them go away. Only bots view this site. I'll call y...
Channels DVR TV guide data sucks
It combines three shows into one three hour recording, it thinks that show is three hours long. Expedition Unknown, Expedition X, and Josh Gates tonight, all...
How shitty are WD NAS drives?
Cheaper then Seagate, but if it's not more reliable then a USB drive, you might as well buy a USB drive. You can get an enclosure for $20, that might work, I...
Probably won’t buy a solar panel next month
I might wait until the first power outage. Is the power really going to go down for a week or longer? I'm on the wrong side of the building, and windows decr...
The new desktop AMD CPUs don’t support USB 4?
Thought I read it did, but it looks like it might not. Well, I sure as hell won't be upgrading in that case. The laptops might get it though. If something I ...
Perhaps I should upgrade my server
I think it's only $3.50 more a month if I upgrade to the 2 GB RAM plan. Might speed WordPress up. And since I've been a customer for a long time, it will mos...
Might be getting sick again
Or I never got better. Think that's what happens to some people with COVID, it appears to go away, they they get sicker. Throat is hurting or something again...
Will AMD Mendocino have USB 4?
No idea, can't find anything that says one way or another. Maybe not then. Bummer. So you basically will have to spend over $700 for a better one, as that's ...
Looks like my Power Station can charge my laptop
The AC outlets appear to work. It's using around 60 watts, 66-67 watts, when I was looking at it. The laptop is off. Is the watts the same when it's on? Is t...
Will one of the cheap Walmart laptop brands make a AMD Ryzen 6000 Series laptop?
Looks like the new 6000 Series has USB 4. You don't need good video in the laptop itself in that case, just use an eGPU. I have one that I can't use, Apple r...
Comcast or somebody else is spamming me
With a survey. I might have to turn texting off on my magicJack number, since you can't block numbers from texting you. Might not actually be Comcast, so cli...
No PS5 for me
Sony emailed me yesterday, saying I can attempt to buy one today starting at 11 AM. Well, you have to wait in line, even if you click the link at 11 AM. Said...
Nice
If you don't know what you are doing, don't change the PHP tuning in CyberPanel. It was working fine, then it finally crapped out today. Why does it need the...
