Yeah the more I see games change, the less compelled I feel to play or even find them interesting. There was something magical about gaming up until halfway through the 7th generation (PS3/Xbox 360 era). I guess the PS4 has had some good games.
:lou: hehehe
Moana she approves. Liked it a lot. I wonder why they decided to make an Uncharted-alike game later.Quote:

:awesome: The Book of Boba Fett chapter 5 :awesome:
I didn't care for the reboot and I ended up dropping it quickly.Quote:

you shouldn't feel bad about being cheap if it's anything like it is around here lumber has gotten fucking expensive.Quote:

No, but we're flipping out and screaming about any being cut down, while simultaneously making everyone stay at home and consider small home improvement projects. Today some freaks shutdown a ferry port and maybe superglued their bodies all over the road, cause they gotta save the world by fucking up traffic.Quote:

Well, I've pretty much filled another 4TB drive now with x265 rips :lol
Still got the other 4TB drive I got recently with a lot of free space but I'm just using that for PS4 BP's.
Filling the x265 drive meant I could delete stuff from my other drives, so there's like 1TB free on another 4TB and about the same on a 3TB. Plus an older 1TB is only half full now but I might move what's left there onto a larger drive and recycle that for proto games or something like that.
Probably should get another 4TB or larger drive I guess...
maybe you should just get a server rack:pwacko:
lol no I'm too cheap for that :revwacko:Quote:

A 8TB HDD would be nice. Heck even a 10 or 13TB would be nice.
I have no problems using old materials as long as it'll work for whatever it's getting used for and the price is right. I would have gone a couple inches wider and slightly longer if I bought lumber but for free I don't have anything to complain about.Quote:

The site also has a bunch of SAS drives but you'd need a controller card (flashed) and cables for them.Quote:

A new 4TB drive is around $70 - $100+ here, depending on speed. I could rip them out of externals but that's a coin flip as to what drive you get :shrug:.Quote:

Dunno, I didn't test that and I never do really. I mainly use laptops and only one of them has USB 3. It is actually seagate though. I've never seen a 2.5" that thick before.Quote:
