    Of course that won't work for several reasons. Besides the fact that it's for a laptop, I need reading glasses. I see multiples of sizes for the 3M screen filters, but the sizes are incorrect. Are they easy enough to cut?

    What do you prefer for the screen filters? I'm not sure what to buy. They seem to be some sort of plastic.

    question Where'd the X79 motherboards go?

    Isn't that shingles drive? Can you run a few hundred GB of sustained writes?

    Some gremlin massacred my post. :( The main purpose of travel is to get somewhere. :) The process may be unpleasant, but the destination should be worth it. I typically take 8 to 21-day trips for personal use to minimize the percentage of useless travel time. Of course for business purposes...

    What corruption? You are just tipping a bellperson to carry the luggage. How is that socially awkward? It's only awkward when you don't pay. Don't you have a very high income anyway? On a typical foreign vacation I pay tips about 10-28 times. I do try to carry the main photo backpack to...

    I don't know what is up with those USB flash drives. Perhaps they have a small SLC emulation buffer area and the rest is TLC or something. I got the Fit for travel use. If I have to drive 120 miles each way in literally Bumf*ck Iowa and Kansas in a crappy rental car, I need some audio. Then...

    That's closer to what I see for the Fit, about 47MB/sec. by the Crystalmark. Once on another computer I saw 56 at 256MB and only 28 for the 2GB test. The attachments 1062 and 1063 in the last post don't work.

    HAMR or Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording. 100 TB HDD by 2025.

    Presumably there has been extensive development and testing. It's not clear to me if that heating requires zone recording like the f'ing drives with the shingles. I much preferred the dancing PMR video than this boron speaking to the LCD with an advert at the end.
