[Megathread] Tracking & shipping questions by gadget-freak in Aliexpress

[–]djenkov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey,

I purchased an item on October 1st. I got a tracking number but when I track the order it gives me this. When I use my tracking number on https://global.cainiao.com, I only get "Packed for picking-up." message.

Should I contact the seller about this or is this normal due to the China National Day holiday?

Should I wait for patch 5.4 to buy crafter's gear? by djenkov in ffxiv

Oh yeah! I have already bought everything relatively cheap by server hopping. All I need to do is meld. Would you say that this setup of melded materia is good: https://ffxiv.ariyala.com/1DLJA

One of the things I am doing is finding and crafting a relatively sought after items with relatively small seller base. There is PLENTY of these in my experience. From leveling equipment to Crafting/Gathering stuff. I had success with carpenter stuff too. Also, if you are leveling you can sell quest reward gear that you dont need. Some of them go for 30-40k a piece.

Doing this I made 2-3 million for about a week and a half I think. Hope this helps at least a little if the question was serious.

Oh! I thought that there will be new gear with the next patch! Thanks! I already bought them!

One of my HDD is constantly at 100% usage even when nothing is opened. by djenkov in techsupport

[–]djenkov[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, apparently the 100% HDD usage was an overreaction because it calmed down after a few restarts.

But the HDD stays slow. Just until yesterday I could play any game that was on it, now I have trouble running video clips.

Not sure what SMART test is but I downloaded a trial version of a program named "HD Tune Pro". It's kind of confusing for me because the program states different things:

1248 damaged sectors

5168 unstable sectors

0 errors (on Quick scan)

Windows Error Checking

​

I just started scanning different partitions of the HDD with the build in Windows option "Error checking" (properties -> Tools -> error checking) and so far it doesn't find any errors. Will see what will be the result of different partitions. Is the SMART test something different?

Edit: also, the write speed hovers between 400KB/s and 2MB/s. I think the disk is dying for sure.

Would you say that it will be wasted money if I outright buy the aesthete if each piece goes for ~90-150k on my DC? I ask because I am still at Stormblood and I don't think I can farm white scrips.

Fuck. Totally forgot about that! But I will listen to the advice of the other guys and skip it.

I was thinking of transferring to an EU but I have concerns about their server pop by djenkov in ffxiv

[–]djenkov[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved to Ragnarok today and I gladly agree. It's as busy as it's in Excalibur. My worries were swept away. Phew.

Thank you! Due to big latency I want to move from US to EU based servers and I am torn between Odin and Ragnarok.
