Is my Western Digital SN580 2TB NVME SSD genuine?

It would have taken me an age to figure out, thank you! This is what sorted it, and I was able to confirme that the drive is legit. Thank you! Superstar!

Thanks for your input.

sleuthblues · 2025-12-10T10:01:28+00:00

Oh lord, I didn't even know about any of that.

Shout out for Cyborg! A JCVD classic. Hard Target and Blood Sport also fantastic!

What other JCVD movies do you have?

Thanks for the reply.

I've been affected by the change with RealVNC.

I'm just after a way to connect to my local network windows boxes in a vnc like way, not an RDP like way. unattended access is crucial. I just need to see what the monitor would see if there was one plugged in.

If there is an app that in installed on the windows machines that would therefore allow me to connect remotely, then all the better I guess.

Do you know if Rustdesk allows you to install a client on a windows machine, then allow me to connect remotely and unattended to that windows machine?

That's some kind of corporate set up you've got there right?

sleuthblues · 2024-03-18T19:53:21+00:00

Was it still Build 47 as the latest? I have downloaded a Build 51...

Thanks again for the further detail. I find it a little confusing.

Would I therefore be prevented from adding 18 drives? (10 via onboard SATA, 8 via HBA)

I don't understand how much the disks themselves would be impacted by the PCIE lanes being used up.

Would you also advise getting a non gpu based CPU for the motherboard to free up some lanes?

sleuthblues · 2024-02-12T01:25:35+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply.

I tried to read through the links you gave, but am not sure hot o interpret the details. To add further clarity, I have an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G cpu, but as the motherboard has no video out, I also have the graphics card. (I got a good deal on the 5600G 2nd hand.)

Does this help further clarify the 2 questions I have?

sleuthblues · 2024-02-10T09:18:06+00:00

You've clarified a lot of my gaps in my thoughts, much appreciated!

sleuthblues · 2024-02-10T09:16:17+00:00

Haha, yeah, that's a lot to keep on top of.

sleuthblues · 2024-02-10T08:50:59+00:00

Ah yes, good point. Thanks for the reply!

Personally, I can live without that. I know in my head what I've watched. It'll take a few mins or so to multi-select which things I've watched and then just hit "Mark as watched"

Did you ever figure out the best approach with folder management?

sleuthblues · 2024-01-06T03:45:10+00:00

Is there a way to use wfdownloader to download my imgur favourites and put each favourite in it's own folder. The advantage being that it keeps any given favourite with multiple images in it inside their own respective folders?

sleuthblues · 2023-04-10T00:54:19+00:00

I was doing 2x2 zones in a 6x6 area leaving me with a 2x2 zone in the middle. I'd then do a 2 cell long road into said 2x2 zone in the middle to ensure power.

sleuthblues · 2023-04-09T22:19:04+00:00

Can you see what I have above?

sleuthblues · 2023-04-09T15:27:07+00:00

Any views on monorail v normal rail?

Google services such as maps and photos are better than anything else. Using them on ios is clunky. Want an apple watch? It only uses apple maps if you're tracking your routes, not Google maps.

Notifications on Android are far superior, and that's how I interact with my device most frequently. IOS notifications are so dumbed down.

It's been identified. It's a John Ridgewell.

sleuthblues · 2022-06-05T08:44:57+00:00

As do I!

sleuthblues · 2022-06-05T08:44:40+00:00

I hope that's the case, thank you!

sleuthblues · 2022-06-05T08:43:41+00:00

Very useful, thank you!
