tanksinatra replied to naphman on Apple MacBook Air 13" M3 24GB RAM 512GB SSD Silver $1,549 + $9.99 Delivery Only @ JB Hi-Fi
I mean it doesn't meet recommended specs and it'll fill half your usable SSD space (after OS), but sure. Go ahead.

Not bad with the included KBM, but the main system is like five generations old.

Thanks for that. This is a really good price for a new one. Any idea how long a SSD might last in this?

I don't think Oculink PCIe x16 exists? I'm pretty sure 5000 series cards work with Oculink. I've seen people hook up a 5090 via oculink.

That one is basically the same but with a smaller SSD (1TB). For an extra $40 you can get 2TB which I think is a decent deal.

Yeah its a good question. I bought this because pricing up 32GB of ram and 2TB of SSD on the mac mini was about $2600. This is a fraction…

Reports from that seller have cleared/falsified SMART data. I'd steer clear.

I'd lean towards a used Tesla. They are the most established EV brand. They drive very well and the drivetrain is reliable. Parts…

It's 2025 and OLED's are everywhere. The OLED Switch 2 will come sooner than you think.

Put in a split system. Cheap to run and out of reach of children.

This looks to be a rapid shredder. Its not equivalent to the 'silent' shredders by Ryobi and Ozito.

These are amazing. I've put countless hours into mine. They crush pretty much any branch that fits down the chute.
