Re: How many here use a SSD for gaming?

My desktop is completely disk less. A hard drive will never see the inside of my computer ever again. 2x M.2 NVMe for my OS, 1x M.2 NVMe for work data, 1x 2TB SSD for weekly images, and 1x 1TB for games. Most are 1-2 years old. My drives rarely outlast me upgrading. Mind you I use the pricier drives...

Re: new car loans

When I bought my wife's new car, I put 20K down and financed 30K for 72 months. I specifically did it this way to hit a monthly payment target. I manage a strict monthly fixed expenses and I don't like to mess with it much. I just paid off my car before hers started, so no real change to our monthly...

Re: Foundry worker puts wet scrap metal in furnace

It looks like the front has some sort of plexi-glass or some material to protect the driver from something like that. He does continue to drive it in a controlled manner and you can see him walking away normally. Either that or the dude has an extremely high tolerance for pain.

Re: phone case companies to avoid.

+1 for Spigen too! I've been using their cases for years with my Pixel phones and I've never had any issues.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2019/10/31/ford-vehicles-soon-download-software-updates-through-internet/4111848002/ I sure hope their updates are better tested than Microsoft's. I would think it would be since the hardware is pretty much the same, specific to a certain model etc., where ...

Re: Samsung Is Promising 'Never-Die' SSDs

Interesting that you mention this while I'm RMAing my 2nd Sandisk SSD in the last couple months. Sounds like it's time for you to switch to Samsung :) I have about a dozen different Samsung SSDs (Pro, EVO, M.2 PRO) etc... I personally haven't had any issues with any of them and some have been runni...

I think this is more for the people that have automated scheduled backups.

Re: Mounting/Unmounting a local drive for "cold" backups

The product I've switch to from Acronis is Macrium. I really hate how Acronis has changed over the years plus all the various stupid issues I've encountered over the years.
