I can swear the pixel 6a still has at least 2 more years of security updates not sure if that's considered to be soon eol but yeah that's a solid setup

I'm late to the party but damn that's a kick to the balls. For subdl I noticed there's also an org version, do you happen to know if they're related to each other?

Just saw the edit and if you don't want to go the router route + LAN for some reason guess another option would be a ucb c dock that allows power pass through. I have an anker one that I use on occasion and recommend it. You can then either get an external drive or a SD card.

Noob here: How do you handle editing tags and album covers on that large amount of music? I recently started to experiment with learning how to use a batch script on mkv files to edit their metadata and was wondering if there was something similar with music files?

Hey long shot but I did end up buying one with a year of manufacturer warranty still available and was wondering if you went through the process of getting a replacement from WD (the manufacturer of my drive) that was brought from eBay? I made a new post but couldn't get answers and I just got a couple of questions.

Yeah I'm guessing this is the easiest option to just get my money back. Appreciate it and I'll update the post with what I go with. I already have another drive that I tested and works so I'm not desperate for now.

Honestly I have no clue. My train of thought was if you could register it, which I havent tested, then the warranty could work. Was kinda hoping someone here or in the original post went through my situation and could clairfy things.

Appreciate it, I'm fairly new to Lemmy so I wasn't sure what communities are available.

Really appreciate it they actually also have an eBay store which I've been stalking religiously I'm just waiting for a lower capacity drive, 8-10tb is my realistic sweet spot. In the meantime I'm just browsing and looking at other well known sellers.

Alright thanks kinda makes me feel better. I'll rely on vlc
