    Ddz99 got a reaction from mrjordann in Best Smartwatch? (w/ iPhone 6s)   
    You CAN par a Moto 360 with an iPhone, but the experience will be subpar. Also, really isn't all that customizable, since you can't download any watchfaces aside from those provided to you by Google, and you can't install any apps on it since it requires an Android phone to get the data from. I have a Zenwatch and I really only wear it because it looks good (tho notifications are a nice addition, I guess).
    TL;DR: Buy an Apple Watch if you want the full smartwatch experience, as no other smartwatch plays as nice with iOS.

    I now have WD green HDD 500Gb. I used to have seagate (2 HDD) but they both broke down within a year. I have this HDD for 4 years now and I think it's time for a change!

    1. I have a Samsung 830 Pro 512GB as my boot drive on my main desktop. I used to have Intel SSD's for their reliability only but the price and speed on the Samsung's were really the deal breaker for me. I Also have a Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB for storing all my music and another Western Digital Red 3TB for all my movies and series. For my external drive I chose a LaCie Porche Design 1TB because the looks fit my Macbook. It has two partitions on it, one for an offline back-up of my Mac and another one for a portable back-up of my Desktop and other stuff I need to have with me while i'm travelling. The disk is encrypted to keep nosy people out.

    I am running a 80Gb Western Digital Black as my boot drive since it has good read/Write speeds and a 1.5TB Green Drive and my Steam/Origin/VM Storage. I also have a 1Tb MyPassport for lan's and backups.

    As of right now my gaming rig isn't very good. My parents bought it in 2007. It has an nvidia 8800gt, an amd phenom processor, I'm not sure what motherboard, and 500gb hdd. If y memory is correct, back in 07 500gb was a lot, but lately I've been running out of room. Drawing inspiration from you videos, I've planned on building a new pc, but I don't have a lot of money. I was looking to do a 60gb ssd for my os and a 4tb hdd for everything else. I'm goin to get just one 4tb because with everything else, that's all I can afford. I'm not really trust worthy of ssd as I've heard they aren't reliable. But then, I don't know a whole lot about computers. Anyway, keep up the good work, and wiether I win or not, you guys are awesome!

    1. I have the standard early-2011 Macbook pro 500 GB internal HDD. I don't want to open my laptop and mess with its internals so I haven't upgraded to an SSD or larger internal HDD. I also have an external Dell PDA500A 500GB HDD. I found it at my dad's wholesale computer business, where it was just sitting unused because they found it with a laptop they were selling. It was pretty much free for me and my dad's business so I started using it for Time Machine on my mac. Oh and I also have 5 months remaining on crashplan unlimited backup storage online which I got free during one of their offers. I guess that counts as storage...

    Right now I use Samsung 840pro 256GB SSD + my old SSD plextor m3 pro 128GB
     
     
     
    Move then enough space for me.  But might be going for 2x 256GB Samsung SSD Raid 0. Just for the speed.

    Current storage setup:
    2x 256GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD in my PC
    3x WD 640GB in RAID-5 in my PC
    4x Samsung 1TB F3 in Qnap 569-Pro (raid-5)
     
    I use the ssd's for the speed for loading my OS/Apps/Games and for the extremely fast access time - so much nicer when things snap open. Theres nothing stored on these that I dont mind losing, everything can be reinstalled again.
     
    The RAID-5 is for my personal downloads/pictures/movies/long term storage, I set up raid-5 as I obviously dont want to risk losing the data stored here as some of it is irreplaceable. RAID-5 for the speed and redundancy as RAID-1 would be a that little bit too slow when dealing with large files, 
     
    This is backed up onto my Qnap as a single raid-5 is not a backup of your data! I chose the Qnap as it has dual gbit connectivity, USB3 and eSATA for additional backup and the ability to utilize another RAID-5 setup, pointless backing up your data onto something that could fail too easily.
    This also houses other PCs backups and is reaching its maximum storage! 4x 4TB would do nicely to let us continue keeping our data safe!
