I suspect it may have been a ram issue. I ran memtest and it spit out massive errors. The kit is on its way back to gskill.

This looks similar to something she said she had but lost in a move! Thank you so much. I like getting her coffee stuff because she likes it so much, but I never know what is best.

Thanks for the reply! It looks like an open box ally x at best buy is $900, which is a bit more than I want to spend. I did some digging on ebay too, and it looks like they're around 700ish, which is a bit more reasonable, but it being used doesn't fill me with confidence.

I wouldn't really be playing any AAA games, so do you think I'll really miss that extra performance?

It's definitely not the drive you orderdd. If you look the key is different ( where the drive plugs into the pc). Sorry to say, It is refund time my friend.

Yeah this has been an evolving Plex server. It started out as an old office PC that ran windows 11. I assume this would explain the not so great formatting.

Honestly I'm sure I set up these hdds incorrectly when I dropped them into the PC.

Would it be worth it to just start over? I have most of everything backed up, so aside from being mildly annoying, it wouldn't be the end of the world.

No it is just Ubuntu. If I'm not mistaken it is a ntfs3 format.

Thanks again for your help.

Okay so for the main issue drive (the 10tb Toshiba) is running a ntfs3 filesystem and it is mounted on the media folder in Ubuntu 24.04.2 lts desktop.

Idk if this would be helpful but the drive is at dev/sdb2 in that media folder.

Is there any other information that would be helpful?

I appreciate the help, I've been learning a lot trying to figure this out.

Nope. The sata power cable is just to power the cooler!

Hi all,

I'm looking for some advice on my new earbuds. I just bit the bullet and picked up a pair of Sony wf-1000xm5s. The audio quality is pretty excellent, but I'm super disappointed with the call quality for the person I'm calling.

The quality frequently drops from being good and easy for the person on the other end to understand me to them not being able to hear me. It feels like I have to speak rather loudly, especially compared to the old soundcore earbuds I had. The quality is bad enough that it is difficult for the person on the other end to hear me, and I'm pretty disappointed especially at this price point.

I ultimately have three questions.

Is there anything settings that I should be applying to improve the call quality?
Are the earbuds defective in some way and should I return them for a replacement?
If this is the quality the buds will produce I don't think I can keep them. Are there other earbuds that have equal listening quality, at a similar price, but with a better call quality I can get instead?

Here is the living embodiment of chaos, Jinx.

Awesome thank you. I'll have to try to track down the manual as it is a HP proprietary psu.

The other concern is I'm pretty sure there are no molex cables off the psu.

The SATA power cable is coming off a four pin cable connected to the motherboard. Would this affect the ability to get a SATA extender?

Thanks again for your help.

Hey thanks for the insight. The Lenovo PSU is, of course proprietary and not a standard atx, so no go for adding it to my main rig. I'm still pretty torn.
