Oh true! I have had forgotten about sd cards in my pocket and tossed the pants in the industrial laundromat machines, full wash and dry later, card was totally dry. [edit] oops should add, and still worked.

Much Love for ASUS I see.

see my edit above this post.

Maybe? I set things in by looking at the max "safe" and dial down... mostly "that'll do" then test. look:

I will let you know in about 15 minutes (single core score) , gonna find out now!

Not quite, but kind of? I want LTT (Or Wendel of L1Techs) to use the WRT54G as the case/chassis for a much better router. Like a sleeper PC, but all router parts. WRT54G is "The" *Classic* Old School Cool, of routers. So, take it's frame, minimize external visual changes so it looks stock, and replace the insides with Multi-Gigabit parts.

WRT54G Multi-Gigabit “Sleeper build” Router Mod? Hmmm... edits made as I get suggestions from places, not just here.

more, like both? showing what I have now and asking if it can be better.

not clean, but it's a daily driver pc. for gaming.

Bump to the top. anyone else want to chime in?

https://www.amazon.com/JVC-HAMR60X-Xtreme-Headset-Black/dp/B00VV6WRTY?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&psc=1 are these any good? lol look like silly fun!

https://www.amazon.com/Monolith-Liquid-Spark-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B07JW7NSXT this one??? not really a stack, but looks better than a fulla Schiit

hmmm valid point about modding.... the meze 99 classics can be DIY modded too, but your quote seems to imply, not required?

I was looking at either the Behringer 770s or 780s or w/e 200-300 dollar closed backs from them, ORR I really like the Meze 99 Classics. https://www.proaudiola.com/beyerdynamic-dt-770-pro-p/BEYER-DT_770_PRO_250.htm?msclkid=eb64b7fc5c3d1b6e6fbbe85990418d07&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=**LP Shop - (USA) Headphones&utm_term=4582970628829466&utm_content=BEYER DT 770 PRO 250 Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 250 Ohm Studio Headphones Closed USD 179 OR https://mezeaudio.com/collections/all/products/meze-99-classics-walnut-gold-wood-headphones#shopify-product-reviews also! pairing them with a Schiit Stack with leftover money.. Maybe used on ebay or something to save a few pennies... https://www.schiit.com/products/modi-1 https://www.schiit.com/products/magni-1 like those, Or the Fulla... https://www.schiit.com/products/fulla-1 This post is asking.... What doe YOU recommend??? I wand closed back bass-head cans. I got a few open back 250 ohm tweeter pairs already... (Looking at you AKG 612s (very bright, NO bass at all.... at like 40hz it's like -40db, lol I want that rumble!) Please go outside these brands! ANY headphones linked below WILL be looked at, Link anything, I'm open to new ideas! just stay under 550USD and target 450USD... thanks!

much higher? so it would matter if the use is a steam game cache? I'll switch back to 'striped' raid if you think it would help for that use. the games are already on my pc on other drives btw, just need to drag and drop, don't want to do it until this is sorted though.

self quote not an edit as I fear I may hit post too late, I want to point out I DID swap out the SATA cables! I have a ton already from buying a massive bulk at a store closing sale a while back....

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082D6XSZN/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 my bad. I'm used to other websites that are way the other way about links...

yup it's those exact ones! I bought 8 in one big batch. this, this may end up being the solution. Just go with the option listed as 'Spanned' instead of striped. I plan on using it as a Steam cache drive. so I went with Striped as it used to be the meta for this. But I wanted to test if it even had any benefit over 'spanned' and it may seem odd, but if you were able to ask if 'striped' was even worth it, in the first reply, with your corroboration to your own adventures with striped. I think this is an easy fix. just used spanned, not striped.

wait it was the guy before me who did it???? OH! haha, I thought it was nechro'd a few people back, I assumed it was because the op date lined up to be exactly 6 years or some crap haha... my bad... I sould read more posting dates than just the one guy above me haha.

I saw amazon selling Silicon Power 128GB SATA SSD drives for like 19* bucks each as well as a RAID0 compatible PCIE SATA 8x Expander card for 45* dollars... So my whole cart after getting everything including some extra RAM was ~300 USD. EACH card says SEQ/SUS read/write of UP-TO 420MB/s (haha 420) this is what I get SEQ SUSTATAINED testing with a real file. (file, a large zip of mixed misc. music related files, about 20 GigaBytes in size) I can post a picture of the hardware in my case for proof but have done ZERO cable managing. my case looks like a medusa head. as you can see the hump there in the graph shot up to 1 or 2 GigaBytes/second then shot down to only ~350MegaBytes/second. I used the RAID compatible 8x expansion card to plug the matching SSDs in to.... BUT I used windows disk management tool for the raid0 (right click on the windows icon, on the task bar, it's the one right there in that menu) Now everyone talks about "Storage Spaces" but I am super confused I think storage spaces is just a layer that sits on top of the settings found in the disk manager.... Right? it's just a new way of doing it? I'm a very confused 30 year old "boomer at heart" "millennial" here... help? would storage spaces work here? what even would working be here... maybe this is fast... I'm not sure what the frame of reference is. also should I blame the expansion card? I think it may be the card being the bottleneck here... it's only 4x PCIE 3.0 (might be 1x even.... if it is, that has to be the bottleneck right???) thanks. EDIT!!!!! Oh god that title! I had put a placeholder, intending to change it, WAS NEVER MENT TO POST IT WITH THAT TITLE.... oof. that was a dumb mistake.
