Newegg has a pre-Black-Friday sale starting on Monday. They were advertising a 2TB Seagate external drive for $150.
When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
If that's the drive I looked at earlier today, it's 5400rpm, which is kinda slow.

Yeah. But 2TB is big, and I'm easily impressed.
Actually, I can't tell. Either it's buried somewhere, or I have Friday fatigue.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have to open my box to check for an available bay, but I want to go internal.

Does anyone have strong feelings about in-car GPS units? I am thinking a Garmin nuvi 265.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
We had the 200 series and liked it, although at some point there was either a problem with the battery or the charger, because it couldn't keep charged. We never did find out what the problem was, because it was stolen.
So my advice would be not to leave the mount where thieves can see it.

Great. I get a nice big internal drive because I see I have an empty expansion bay and an empty SATA port on the motherboard. But no rails! And the power cables don't fit the drive either. Not to mention that the cables have come off the main drive and I can't get the angle to get them back in so that machine is down until my head hurts less and I can think more clearly.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
So after a tragic modem demise, I borrowed a modem from a coworker, got it set up, got a wireless router from the basement, plugged that in, and got connected. (Assume about a week's delay between each step. No, seriously.) But I'm feeling stupid because I can't figure out how to secure the network - the dead modem came from AT&T and did it automatically. I've been to [link] ect. but don't find any option there, and I can't find anything on AT&T's shittastic site either. Help? Even knowing which of those I need to dig into more thoroughly would be a start.

All is well that ends in pizza.
But no rails!
Four Dilly bar sticks from Dairy Queen. What?
And the power cables don't fit the drive either.
Well, Frell.
