honestly though. I kinda dislike that a 40 or 50tb mechanical drive is even a thing. What we really need is larger, more affordable solid state drives. Mechanical drives have had their place, but their limits are fairly clear at this point. And your point about rebuilding an array makes that obvious. They are just too slow. This move by seagate to make ridiculously large mechanical drives, should not be the beginning, as this article suggests. It should really be the end.
Not sure how you're doing your math, but I've probably watched about 85% of it. And a lot of it I've watched multiple times.
But no. I am not ok. lol.

why do you think it takes less time for the nervous system to improve than muscles?
well, i've always thought the difference is completely imperceptible from lossless after about 96 kbps per channel. that said, if you're using certain types of components that read certain codecs like truehd, there can be a very perceivable difference between a truehd track and a compressed E-AC3 track.
you get high end boards for the ports and the PCIE lanes. not the sound. even cheapo boards have very decent sound these days.
motherboards, even the cheap ones have pretty damn good sound these days. I would do a pepsi challenge with $150 mobo and its sound vs pretty much anything. I very much doubt an "audiophile" could tell the difference.
TERRORIST.
there are other, more effective ways to fight back than to argue with an inanimate object.
I'm definitely in the minority, but I like windows 11 a lot. Its got a lot of great features that 10 didn't have. And almost everything that people complain about in windows 11 is pretty easy to turn off or change.
