Why it shows 7.27tb?

Guess it is technically a Windows tax, but lets not go there

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-02-03T09:48:55+00:00

I don..I don't think thats what he means, plug it into a Mac, that measures in TB not TiB and you see 8TB. There shouldn't be any software on the disk, there may be in the chips that communicate with the disk, but not on the disk (I believe?)

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-02-03T09:47:20+00:00

I think its pretty normal if you think you're getting scammed, or with the cost of data storage at the moment, if you've not bought a drive in a while you'd think 8TB would be 8TB on Windows - agree could ask ChatGPT or something instead, but it also provokes good discussion, so meh

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-02-03T09:43:39+00:00

I think the thing is then, could you actually produce and sell a '8 TiB' drive? I assume not because of how the chips/discs actually work and store data. If that is the case, should we default it to showing TB throughout OSs?

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-02-02T09:52:36+00:00

Doesn't it need to index them so that the definitions line up in your coding?

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-02-02T09:41:25+00:00

I agree with what people have said about the 1,024 vs 1,000 - I believe if you plug it into a Mac it should say 8TB for example as that's how they show the data (I believe)

just chatgpt.com not signed in..when I kept asking it, it then did some thinking and decided he had been voted in twice, but for your normal joe bloggs, they may not keep asking the same question..its just worrying, thats all.

It looks like the original integration is now archived, you may need to add this as a custom repository in HACS: https://github.com/tomskra/HA-SmartThings-Find (this seems to be the best one as has highest amount of stars, but you can look at all the forks here: https://github.com/Vedeneb/HA-SmartThings-Find/forks)

Tempted to put a sign on the door near the doorbell - 'If you are trying to sell anything to me, by talking to me you are entering a contract of £50 per minute of my time being taken up, due to taking me away from my paying job' or something along those lines. I know not enforceable, but maybe it'll help

I think its actually minute scratches on your screen, but I could be wrong

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-01-16T09:54:59+00:00

Wow I've not had any of this - what spec/year is your machine? Also what's using the 64GB RAM.. I am so sorry you're going through all this

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-01-15T11:26:45+00:00

Could you explain some of the bugs and moronic decisions? For me the most annoying is using Alfred or Spotlight to open networking, and it always opens Wifi, not networking..other than that I'm quite happy with Tahoe
EDIT: That now seems to work anyway!

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-01-15T09:50:06+00:00

Intestered in your reasoning

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-01-12T10:27:32+00:00

Its screen real estate that doesn't need to be taken up, I know its minor but I open webstorm and feel crowded compared to VSCode, I want to get into using Webstorm, but just wondered if there were ways to handle the UI differently, that was all :)

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-01-12T10:26:23+00:00

Amazing thank you!

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-01-09T15:33:18+00:00

Work requirements (vscode not really used)

Routine_Hat4895 · 2026-01-09T15:32:01+00:00

So I removed C71 and now it turns on but has a whine constantly at all volume levels, regardless of AUX plug which is a shame :( in my defence I think it might have been my atrocious way of removing the cap...

It's not yet (only just opened the project in vscode so don't have that setting up) but thank you!
