Isn't that the default location when you first install? I remember always having to move it back to the top where it belongs.

They desolder components and reuse them or they scrap old laptops and scavenge the good bits like the screen and keyboard? Assuming someone brings in a laptop with a bad hard drive, what components later get disassembled?

R7 gang here. Let us keep the dream alive!

Curious what was the model of your drive failure? I have 6 years now on a bunch of 8TB WD Elements/EasyStore drives as well as some 10TB-14TB WD MyBook, Elements, and refurbished WD drives from serverpartdeals in the preceding years. Still no failures yet but I'm expecting one eventually.

I'm currently running mine on Windows and use SnapRAID and DrivePool as my defense against drive failures. I think I have 7 data drives and 2 parity at this point (totalling around 90TB). Beyond that I copy the Snapraid whatchamacallit to a separate backup drive along with my OS drive. This isn't really a 'backup' but in the scenario where I have several failures and no way to restore, I still have radarr/sonarr keeping track of my library and a membership to several private trackers.

I wouldn't worry too much about losing media files as most can just be downloaded again. I find it more beneficial to make use of all the storage space you can rather than trying to do a 1:1 backup, which gets pretty absurd once you start getting up there in movie/TV count.

Or they funnel it all to GallowBoob or whoever his replacement is.

I don't think people care about the nudity as much as they care about the intent behind the nudity. Streamers seem to be edging as close to the line of porn as they can in order to gain views and money. This isn't someone simply walking around a beach without a top on.

I don't care if people want to fingerbang or jack themselves on cam while playing Zelda, but don't fucking blend it in and recommend it to people on a site specifically designed for children. That's what turns it from "someone seeking it out on their own" (as with the availability of porn on the rest of the internet) to "let's shove it in your face to boost our quarterly profits during an economic slump." People can claim that this all should be prevented by rules and tags but let's be real people are going to do whatever they can to skirt the rules and standout from the crowd and no human being is actually going to be moderating any of this just like with YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, or any other similar site.

Well that's not very "green" coming from a company who stopped supplying customers with chargers "because of the environment." When a hard drive craps out the only solution is to replace the entire board rather than a single part with an industry standard connector?

You sound like a brain-worm infected Trump supporter with these comments.

I absolutely think that price is insane, and I'm laughing at people who willingly pay for that!

And that's why someone invented the phrase, "ignorance is bliss."

Okay?

The problem is that this company doesn't exist.
