Yeah, it gets scary, I'm at 32TB plus miscellaneous SSDs and sticks

Nowhere near that much actual data, just paranoid with redundancy or mirror + backup at the very least.

 

You don't need to fill hard drives with "spreadsheets and powerpoints" these days, that's what sites like SpreadsheetHub and PowerPointHub are for. Don't waste your disk space on something you can stream!

 

Speed reduction improvements for the barge (285mm drilled discs matched pads)

 

I have this nasty habit of randomly buy hard drives whenever I see a good deal lol.

 

43" Dell P4317Q 4K
Unboxing and mounting tommorow, i had the phillips 40 4k so can compare.

 

I have a tough time on a 32", how do you even manage 43" at arms length?

 

Someone slipped the DooM OST out without me noticing.

So that. It's so good.

 

A million times this! Long gone are my days of downloading all the "Backdoor VB MILF*" and "Massive Spreadsheets - So big it hurts" videos and keeping them locally. Stream it all now, much easier. And less likely to get found with a massive filthy spreadsheet collection. Plus it now frees up space for my henta....anime collection

I'm so tired right now I had to read this three times before I clocked what you guys are actually talking about. I was poised to type a reply about "redundancy for important files..." and now I realise we're not talking about important files. LOL.

 

at foots length?, windows 10 automatically up scaling to 250% or more only showing the normal 4k screen and icons once down scaled back.

That very much depends on personal preference. My monitor is 2560x1440 @32 inches and hits the sweet spot for me. My eyesight is not as good as it once was and I have a second pair of glasses, just for the PC.

APC Back-UPS 700VA baby UPS

It's been something on my "I should get around to" list for literally years. Had the first power cut in forever at the weekend, and powering the server back on was stressful. No harm done (and thanking ReFS for not needing an offline chkdsk on a couple 11TB volumes), but would prefer elegant shutdowns in future.

 

...And a CBT course. The bike itself will be next EDIT: and I need the back insert for the jacket.

34 years old and not being able to drive is an embarrassment. I could get away with it if I lived/worked in the city centre but I don't. Cycling in isn't always an option, and I am so... goddamn... SICK of the local bus "service".

An old school Nexus 5x since I didn't need the fancy new stuff on Pixel...

 

I'm looking for a nexus as well. Where did you order it from?
