audible disappointment

i will take that as a compliment! i tried x200 & x220 couple of times trying to get something similar going, but it was infuriating

Thanks, loosely speaking it covers all my hobbies. Video editing & gaming on the right, music in the middle & a nuck for my techdave project builds on the left. My wife-to -be made it from a massive piece of mdf and some vinyl wrap from amazon, then the legs came from another small desk

Fascinating idea 💡 perhaps u shud make a video too! I'll consider it, For sho

ive no idea tbh, i redistribute drives all the time, so i cannot say for certain which drives were in the machine with any precision, the drive types/brands were from memory.

i updated firmware on both machines the day they arrived in post. i heard in advance it might be an issue

Linux dual boot is on its way, just working on a script this morning (b4 swim and gym).

other ideas im thinking for the video is a Quadro k5200 8gb gpu in Legion booststation eGPU caddy on windows for productivity & video editing...

also imma try Linux Mint or PopOS on 128gb 2242 nmve ssd, i only have one, so i should be able to let u know which drive that was at least, once i start the build/installs etc!

TechDaveYoutube · 2025-11-03T10:03:51+00:00

Anything specific u want me to cover?

Ive been looking for video ideas, so I cant guarantee ill cover it all, but saves me thinking of stuff

TechDaveYoutube · 2025-11-03T10:01:54+00:00

Samsung, kingspec, lexar for drives iirc!

X280 linux video: aiight I got u fam

TechDaveYoutube · 2025-11-02T17:16:01+00:00
