    Re: QOTW: How much free storage do you have left on your PC?

    I just upgraded from a 256GB Samsung XP941 M.2 to a 1TB WD Black SN750, so I have plenty of space on my boot drive now. I was really running out of space previously. I also have plenty of space on a pair of WD Red 1TB drives in RAID 1 for my data. They are backed up to a 20TB RAID 6 NAS so I'm not really concerned about space at the moment.

    Both my NAS and gaming computers where close to full.
    Chia came, so I jumped and got 2x 14TB Red Plus and 2x 2TB 980 Pro.


    Now I don't care anymore if Chia fkucs up the storage market.

    5 x NVMe drives with a total of 9TB. Of which approximately 4TB is free. 3 connected direct to TRX4 motherboard, other two using PCIe expansion cards.
    I move around a lot with work. Next time I get sent to somewhere with spotty internet I will be downloading my entire steam library and taking it with me.

    I keep running out of space and have to keep constantly trying to find more space! I play games, so keep finding it hard to find space to install a new game on my 1TB drive... feel I need an upgrade.

    Drive A (boot): 35KB/1.44MB
    Drive C (storage): 8MB/20MB
    Drive D (tape backup): Nil/50MB
    Drive E (SCSI Zip drive): Who knows, it just keeps clicking.

    Recently had a thump to the head. Anyone know how to get QEMM working on Windows 10?

    Re: QOTW: How much free storage do you have left on your PC?

    I have about 9 TB free across all my drives. Ended up with a lot of 2TB drives when they were fairly new and they all still work. Also bought a couple of cheap large externals which I'm mainly using now as they are likely to be more reliable.

    With bandwidth increases and changes in how the internet works storage has become much less important, especially slow storage, on the clients.
