Backup/dash cams.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.

The samsung magician software is pretty straight forward and easy to use. Considering you've already bought the SSD why don't you give it another try? Or just do a fresh install and copy your files over if you feel like you can't do it. 5400 rpm drives are never fast, you're probably more patient than most.

 

 

I've had problems using Magician for migrating to an SSD. It especially can't handle more than two partitions. I've had excellent luck using Macrium Reflect Free

I've never had a smartphone, a smart watch, smart TV, or a smart assistant (Alexa, etc.) nor do I want one. I've never used any water cooling.

Says the person who doesn't use SSDs :P

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

I've never used an SSD in a personal system.

How even

 

I banned hard drives in my entire house, the only hard drives allowed are mass storage, such as the three in my NAS

I spent far more time unclogging sinks when I had garbage disposals than without. There is no way I'll ever own one of those misbegotten spawns of Satan again.

A fantastic boot SSD is like $70 xD I'm pretty sure garbage disposals cost more than that, not less :P

I don't even use them for that. It's all SSDs for me.

Planning a rig on a student budget, $70 is everything and I chose to live without the SSD for now.

 

If it makes you happy, I might grab one this year.

never had dishwasher, been washing our dishes with hands

I was constantly having to repair the one we had back when I was still married and raising a family. Dishwashers are something else I will never own again. I either wsh dishes by hand or use paper plates.

Again, no budget. I might grab one this year though. My Seagate Barracuda has been fast enough, didn't really see the need for one lol.

My nas already saturate what my network can handle, so I can't justify three 1TB SSDs lol

I had no trouble justifying the three 4TB SSD data drives and single 500GB SSD boot drive in my computer and the 2TB SSD in my notebook. It was justifying the cost of the 16 4TB SSD and two 2TB SSD backup drives that was a tough pill to swallow. Since I had only 54k miles on my '08 F150 Screw, I decided I needed the SSDs more than a new truck (the weight of the HDDs were killing my old carcass; the added speed was a bonus).
