Kinja'd!!!

Used 5TB Seagate drive for $50. They couldn’t find the power supply so they reduced it to $40. As was somewhat expected, it’s DOA. Thankfully I can get a full refund, but that’s 12 miles out of my way. I am going way out to BFE to get my oil changed and a recall handled, so it’s not quite as far away as it could have been.

I also picked up one of these on the cheap. I don’t really need one but I wanted one, and the price was right.

“12 miles out of my way”

Translating into Seagate terms, that about 6,000 clicks.

Oh, it’s clicking pretty loudly alright...

I’llhave to check the date. Maybe it’ll still be under warranty.

Not exactly. I was studying communications in CAP but haven’t gone any further.

Civil Air Patrol, a USAF auxiliary. I was aerospace education officer, and was studying communications as a secondary specialty.
