idk you can rent them.

oddly thank you for that info.

oddly 48 port 1gb switch was eating more power then thread ripper builds(2 of them)

i went to a fanless netgear 24 port switch for 25 bucks.

was 30 extra on top of Normal bill.

this will cut bill down by 20 alone.

paid firmware updates… wow

oh yeah. os installer and a few take with me drives.(nothing imporant on them)

counter strikes new bomb.

I stole the thermal paste…

depends on location power can be a big issue.

it can be cheaper per year to burn disc , then hdd/ssd storage.

spin a drive up for a month every year. aka began,middle and year end.

total time of spin up is 1 full month spread across the 3 time a year

Had a 1gb speed network… 1 day speed was 10mb transfer… took me week ti figure out 1 cable connected to device got damaged.
It was super easy to spot. If I taken a min f my time too look.

photos and personal documents, some other stuff. is triple back up.

then other data.

has 1 copy some where due to size of data to re downloaded.

other is takes me 5 mins to re downloaded.
