you shouldnt have to ask if its in 4k you should be able to tell the difference but if you cant then you should not be having a 4k monitor

He said nothing like that. At all. He's asking how to scale it.

I'm considering getting a hard shell briefcase for it and mounting the screen inside it.  Maybe something like this and mounting the monitor to the lid of the case and having two cut outs for the power cords.  I could create cutouts in hard foam to make airflow channels for the fan on the sides and just have a cutout in the top.

Just make sure that you account for all that link that will be created from the felt. I suggest that you gut the case and use wood or 3d print instead of using foam

why do you have that as your profile picture its disturbing 

If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all.

Thanks so much for the quick responses!
 

Is it safe to assume that Chrome or VLC are 'major' enough applications that would play in full 4k even if windows scaling is on at over 100% (with res still at 4k)?

They should as long as the video is 4k. All the programs do is read the file and display it.

He already owns it.

Also, he said nothing about not being able to tell if it was 4k or not.

I would stay away from everything that has to do with reformatting at this time... First recover everything and once you are sure you already have what you want, reformat if you wish.

Currently, I have everything off the dead drive, which is mirrored on the 2nd drive. It's just the file structure id really like since there's about 20k things

Looks like the file system is damaged. You could try using a piece of software called GetDataBack NTFS. Works really well. https://www.runtime.org/data-recovery-software.htm

 

Alternatively, have a look at R-Studio. Both work well but they are paid software. 

 

Both of these tools can be used to attempt to recover the file structure and allow you get your data back. I have used both many times in the past, and they work like a treat as long as the drive in question isn't failing. 

Yeah, it seems that when I plug in the drive it just doesn't read it. It shows up in disk manager but not in file explorer. In disk manager it shows as a "dynamic disk" and it won't mount. When I attempt to mount it, it shows a warning that mounting requires it be a basic disk and that it'll format the drive.

With RAID 1 drives generally you can just disconnect the bad drive and mount the good one normally. Sometimes windows is stupid and you have to go into disk management and assign a letter to the drive. 

Seems that when i want to mount it i have to reformat it, which removes data

You are not entitled to shove your opinion a conversation that you were not part of. Do you not have any social skills?

Oh... that's coming from the guy who thinks you can't be friends with who you're married with.

no one asked for your opinion, we know what hammers are for. Please stop.

Oh, am i not entitled to an opinion?

Just now, Allmykidsareblack said:

Well you butt into a debate with another user, and his point was to be a man a requirement was a hammer which i was asking his opinion on and not yours.

did i give my opinion? I merely stated what a hammer is used for

when linus insults someone in a video they almost always laugh it off, because everyone at LTT are very good friends. Just because he's their boss doesn't mean he can't have fun in the workplace. that's not a law.

No, its a law. in his world

I have no need to build or demolish so why "to be a man" must I buy a hammer?

I never said that you had to buy a hammer to be a man. Simply that it a useful tool.

Asking the admins to ban me, then resorting to name calling now? Why must I buy a hammer?

Because its useful for building/demolishing?

Well I guess you could remain friends after a divorce? Is that what you are trying to say?

Well, you're not married anymore, are you now? Just because you're divorced doesn't mean you're not friends. Sometimes it just doesnt work out.

Maybe you can report that to the admins? I'm still waiting for your judging me on not having a hammer in my tool box and would like to understand more about that post from you.

Buy a hammer ya tweeb.

@iamdarkyoshi

please ban hammer

Just now, Allmykidsareblack said:

Yes if you are married you become more than just friends.. how do you not understand this?

Again. just because you're more than friends does NOT mean you can not be friends.

When you marry someone they become your wife or husband, you are beyond friendship.

lol, you made it even worse. Just because you're married doesn't mean you're not friends. What's your partner supposed to be? Your enemy?

You don't get it and this is 100% of the problem on this post. This is not a group of friends it is a business setting, this is their jobs their source of income with Linus as the boss. Your view on women is very warped and borderline sexist.

So a business cannot be made of friends? 

That's like saying when you marry someone, they CANT be your friend. They can ONLY be the other half of the household.
