Whatcha need 4TB for bud? Not that it's a bad thing. Storage for movies/TV Shows I get it. I assume you're gonna run the OS off of it. Maybe split the partitions in half?

I am currently backing up Six Windows Installations with both Macrium Reflect X & Aomei Backupper with each Installation having 2 current versions of backups and is using over 1TB of Space now.

My intention is to make more versions such as a yearly image of a clean install with all programs free and paid this way my paid programs stay activated and I don't have to worry that a key has a limit of the number of activations.

The Samsung 980 Pro 4TB drives will be used in UGreen External NMVE enclosures and will function the same as my current Samsung T7 Shield 2TB I am using now.

    I use this computer for photo/video editing and to track severe weather
My old Corsair Void headphones finally gave up the ghost after five years, so I bought a pair of these last week:

They aren't too bad. The sound is good and they are comfortable. I haven't tried the 7.1 DTS sound yet, though. I am going to try a couple of games that use it sometime this week and see how it is. Overall, I am happy with my purchase.

I have been wanting to try out the Apple Hearing Aid feature in their AirPods Pro 2 so I pulled the trigger this AM.
I found pretty good deals on Amazon, Target & Walmart.
I purchased the Apple AirPods Pro 2 & a iPhone 12 Mini to program them, which Apple says will take iOS 18.

I just received a new SOFIRN Q8Plus Rechargeable Flashlight 16000 Lumens with Anduril 2.0 UI
They knocked 25% off last week & it sure is less expensive than Amazon is offering it for.
It took 6 days to arrive here & was shipped from China instead of from the local SOFIRN warehouse.
It is super bright & with the (included) Silicone Diffuser attached & on Turbo mode it is too bright for my eyes.

Ordered new pc! I already have nvme storage so didn't need to buy it. Gpu I saw was coming too late so I thought I would wait but ended up going to best buy and got it there. But it's the same card.

I was shopping flashlights for a Christmas gift for someone on a farm and that is one that came up. I ended up ordering a Fenix PD40R V3.0 Rechargeable Flashlight though. That looks to be a good light. I love flashlights. I would have gotten something different myself. But this was sizable and looks like an easy interface, 10% off and free extra 5000 mAh battery. Fellow flashlight enthusiast?

Nice stuff..., quite pricey I'll bet! :unsure:


These C510's are great, they're comfortable, small and inconspicuous, you don't rip them out of your ears pulling a sweater over your head!
Highly customizable within the app, sound is perfectly awesome!
Bluetooth range is great too, I'm all over the house with the phone remaining on my desk, even out to the public sidewalk out front!

One thing that still gets me every time..., you arrive somewhere in your car, shut the car off but the music keeps playing!!! :zany:

Yeah, I'd recommend them to a friend, for that price!!! (y)

I have my car stereo and hearing aids connected to my cell phone using blue tooth. I use either the Spotify or SiriusXM app to stream my content from my phone. I keep forgetting that I can only walk away so far from my car if the radio is playing. If I do, it switches over to my hearing aids. I have to power cycle the radio to switch back.

Reading your post got me thinking. The ear cushions on my Cowin Bluetooth headphones are starting to get deteriorated and uncomfortable so I decided to replace them with the Sony WF-C510 Ear Buds. I would just use my hearing aids except for two things. The one time I tried to connect my hearing aids to my computer they didn't show up as a device I could connect too. The second reason is that going by the music sound quality when they connected to my phone sucked. The total price on Amazon is $51.18 and they will be delivered tomorrow between 4 to 8 AM. I'll test them and let you know what I think of them. I'm sure they will sound better then the cheapies you see in the Walmart checkout line.

I'm almost positive you won't be disappointed!
I have the C500's and the C510's, both are excellent. As a matter of fact, the Bluetooth range, (depending on your phone, of course), is superior with the C510's!

I have a external Bluetooth transmitter/receiver connected to my desktop. Using that and my headphones I can take my dog in the field across the street and still listen to my music. Now I'm curious how far I can go wthe the ear buds.

@Edwin The Ear Buds arrived this morning. Once they are fully charged I'll test them and let you know what I think of them. I did have a small problem downloading the app using the barcode. I couldn't get it to download. I had to use the the Google Play app. I'm going to use the computers Bluetooth to start with. I have to wait until I know my sons Bluetooth devices are turned off. The external Bluetooth transmitter/receiver auto connects to the first two devices it finds when I set it to pair.

The ear buds are keepers. They sound good and reasonable priced. For now I have them paired to my two desktops. I don't think I'll be using them on my phone. The first pairing was easy. I just had to click Connect on the computer. For the second pairing I had to use the manual.

That's the button. When I unpacked the box I wondered what that button was for. I had both of my desktops running but only the old desktop had Bluetooth turned on. The connect option popped up as soon as I took the buds out of the case. I canceled it then turned on Bluetooth on my new desktop. After a short wait the connect option popped up. It was the second pairing that made me read the manual. I'm a get my hands dirty first, then read the manual type of guy. :-)
