I’ve owned this mouse for a few months now and have just had to replace it under warranty because of the middle click breaking from…

Yep, still working, just need to mess with it. Remove from cart, add to cart, click link from OzB page, add to cart, then suddenly it just…

Yes.

Both will continue to work, but the one with an invalidated key will display a watermark asking for activation and have restricted Windows…

Yes and no. Both computers will work however one of the Windows keys will be seen as invalid when the OS contacts Microsoft’s activation…

The 15 isn't inferior, the improvements since last generation are just... very minor. USB-C and the "Action Button" which replaced the mute…

Be warned, I used to do this every year but they've caught on. You'll be told that it's not supported anymore (after the recharge) and…

I suggested cloud provider backups as it's very safe and easy but if the subscription model isnt appealing @bdl is right, an adequately…

All of them are capable of that workload, just choose according to the number of drive slots you need (factoring in redundancy). Also,…

TrueNAS is vastly superior. Unraid is a toy; flexible and fun, but nothing compared to enterprise ready solutions from iXsystems like…

Yes, that's essentially what Synology devices are designed for, as long as the drives are SATA you shouldn't have any problems. Be careful…

My understanding is that those slots are for read/write caches and cannot be used for general storage.

Have a dedicated NAS and virtualisation server is usually best practice and is what I'd personally opt for.

The x86 instruction set would like a word.

Don't make me laugh

Exact same experience as you. 2/3 of my Ironwolf drives failed within 6 months but they replaced them, allowed me to transfer the remaining…

Only difference being the Christian one was pushing their religion on people who aren't interested and this one is trying to save you and…

I got the same thing today and I'm vaccinated. Don't worry, just a shotgun approach by the gov trying to fix the current state of things.

eBay queries EB Games backend for product quantities -> "all good, plenty of stock", store page is artificially limited to 10 units by some…

I own 6 of these, quite good, haven't had a failure yet (touch wood) in the year I've been running them.

Witcher 3, brilliant game.

Ahh right, yeah that's a difficult requirement. None of the cases I've been looking at can fit that many 3.5" drives, sorry. Yeah, don't…

For more anecdotal evidence, I bought 6x16TB Seagate Exos drives about a year ago, they've continued to pass SMART tests and no failures…

>I think we're pretty much agreeing here - due to data striping, higher forms of RAID are not "better" than RAID 1 (mirrored drives). A…

>True, all forms of "soft damage" can be reversed - if you have a backup stored elsewhere, which was my point: RAID is not a backup. And…

Yes, but as with most modern NAS systems these days, accidental file deletions, ransomware, encryption, etc. aren't very effective against…
