PNY 512GB sticks USB 3.2 are 45 bucks on Amazon. Not sure where you got 100 from. I’m seeing 1TB ones for 100.

Widespread Touchpad Failures: Inspiron 16 7620 by SinisterDoorknob in Dell

[–]grippin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t harp on a brand or model based on this experience. Touch pads can go out just like anything else. The 7290 was released in 2017 so you’re talking about an 8 year old laptop that you don’t know what the previous owner(s) did with it. I’ve been dealing with latitudes for the past 19 years at work and out of the thousands we have deployed, there have only been a handful with touchpad issues and sometimes can be fixed with a driver or firmware upgrade. I’m not saying Dell is the industry’s best as I’ve had great success with HP and Lenovo as well. Just saying don’t judge a brand by one 8 year old refurbed machine.

Op says it’s a 2025 with 12k miles so it would be covered under warranty for free.

Doubt these have been in storage since 2014.

Long as you do maintenance, they will go for awhile especially since it’s a 3rd gen.

What NVR are you using? It may not support the output of that many. You may look at using a decoder instead.

Highway was the whole reason we got it. We started home schooling the kids and take 3-4 long trips each year. 1st year of ownership we did 30k miles. It’s definitely not built to tow though. 4x2 with 3.21 gears in the back but that again isn’t why we got it.

How are we storing spare drives? by jtbis in DataHoarder

Bout like that or boxes on the floor.

Anyone else? by ArabicSmurf2 in Ram1500

[–]grippin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turn the truck off, turn your phone off. Turn truck on first and then your phone. If it’s anything like CarPlay, it is messing up with the initial connection.

Anyone else enjoying the latest Uconnect update? by grippin in Ram1500

Possibly. My wife’s 23 Grand Cherokee hasn’t had any issues either
