lol, hard drives going cheap yes. Check those prices.

I've found the secret to not needing more storage though....after careful observation of my past 10 years, I noticed that downloaded stuff hardly, if ever gets re-used. Not to mention that there is a constant flow of new stuff to download.

The solution, delete.


No more archiving, pack rat-ing, meticulous file renaming.

Just watch/play/use and once done....delete idmc.

was looking for an enclosure in best buy and couldnt find a cheap one.. cheapest one was 77 USD
so picked up one of these
was really looking for an enclosure with sata and pata
but had to suck it up and pick this one up cause of time.

Comes with an esata cable ( finnnallyyy) which has been amazing
works on 2.5 and 3.5
hot swappable so thats been great for my laptop HD swapping and ghosting.

THere is also one called a duet that has space for 2 sata drives at the same time for 64 dollars, still cheaper than the one enclosure.

After seeing the performance of this one, will definitely pick that one up.
Two bad only have one esata connection on laptop, otherwise id keep them both and pop three drives in same time.

Also spotted a nice looking usb docking station but kinda expensive so ill put that on hold.
Amurrrikaaaaaa f(**&(*( yeah!!

2  of  Kumho Ecsta SPT KU31 Tires  for my car at just under TT$500 each at Mileage Mack.

I failed to rotate the previous set and front tires wore down in just a year to the point where they became an accident waiting to happen...

These new tires are 'economy' sport tires and the car handling wonderfully again.

Crixx I know you still have a hoard of realmedia anime series and vids.

Rurouni Kenship Epiosde 01.rm

Data Pack Rack of the decade award yes. lol

more lol @ hard o/c hoarding software and not using any.
