Hello, everyone. I'm a seafarer, and in the next few months I'll be onboard for the next 7 months. The internet for crew on cruise ships is very expensive. I have this Android tablet with 256 GB storage and an SD card of 1 TB. I want to fill this storage with random shorts/reels or TikTok videos. So that I wouldn't need to buy any internet plans and keep the money for my family. I'm having a hard time searching for a downloader that can download batches of shorts. Maybe about 5000 random shorts/reels will keep me entertained for months? Thank you, guys!

I've been using HD Sentinel, and I'm just curious what others use to help monitor their drives. Also do you get to a point in time with powered on hours where you feel like its a good idea to replace regardless if its been rock solid for many years?

My HDD vendor has no more 12TB refurbished drives in stock and the last two I bought both went RMA for a refund.

So I am looking for a few new drives. I went with 12TB because of availability and economy since they went into my 8 bay NAS. In actual use I did notice that the drives were quiet when operating.

So I am looking for larger drives 16TB to 22TB range, that still are reasonably quiet because the DS1817+ sits in my home office.

In 22TB I could go with renewed EXOS drives, otherwise it would be new Toshiba MG or new Ultrastar in the 16TB-20TB range. What would be the option with the "lowest" noise output? I will inititially install 2-3 drives and don't expect to have to replace all 8 drives.

Hi there, quick question? I recently transfered the data from my daughter's laptop (Where she had run out of space due to hoarding every bit of CC she could get her hands on for The Sims 3 and 4) by using windows' built in backup software. I created a disc image of the data, no problem... except because of the way the drive is formatted, it will not let me expand her 500gb "C" drive to the full 1 TB. Even though there's a ton of unallocated space on the drive. here's like system information drive, and then there's some other recovery partition between her "C" drive partition and the empty space. What do I need to do in order to access that space and expand her drive? Will deleting that recovery partition (idk how) do the trick?

I currently pay £7 a month for 1TB, however I'm wondering if there might be a cheaper option? I've never need to touch my backup yet, so being easily accessible isn't a biggy for me, I just need peace of mind that I have a reliable off-site backup.

I'm getting into buying and ripping dvds/ Blu-rays. Got my disk writer set up with makemkv. Everything is working so far. I'm wondering what my long term storage solution should be be. I feel like a nas might be overkill maybe it's something I can grow into. Otherwise I'm thinking I'll just start buying external hard drives. I'm just not sure what my next steps should be. I got into to this becuase streaming services are pissing me off. I want to watch star trek again but I WILL NOT pay for Paramount+.

I'm curious what it looks like 2-4 years later. Recently bought T7 4TB version. I use my SSD for editing videos on it.

Switched over to a NAS and this is what I ended up with on Qbittorent on my main machine. I think this instance of qBittorent was installed in early 2022.
