Piss on 'em. You are better off without them.

Indeed, I've bought a few drives from ebay traders that had "shucked" them back when that was the rage. Also I bought many drives ripped from laptops that were upgraded before being resold. Especially after SSD became the latest fad. I guess the economics depend on the current situation, so...

Exactly. For the cheapest of these enclosures, replacing the cable with a decent one is almost what you paid for the enclosure. Still, it can be a good path to take.

I imagine those name brand external drives are pretty expensive, so with a huge profit margin, they can likely afford to supply at least a decent cable. Even some of the cheap enclosures will occasionally have a cable that actually works for a good while. I have one $6 enclosure that's had no...

That's probably the wisest path, since these two dictators fell madly in love.

That won't even compensate for the new tarriffs :(

I also have an even older dell laptop I use occasionally, an i7 machine running win 11, and I don't have this problem. I think its a 3rd generation i7. I really don't have a solution for you, but be real sure to check all windows settings (especially the windows defender/antivirus) and make...

Thanks guys. I watched the tutorial. It looks like a lot of fluff to me. I think I'll pass on it because it doesn't really do much that you can't do with normal windows tools, and a few extra programs like revo uninstaller, etc. Plus you have to be SUPER careful to uncheck lots of stuff, or...

Thanks, good to know it's not a mechanical keyboard. I almost ordered one.

Yeah, last order i did was for a two pack of amazon basics rechargeable batteries. They sent ONE battery. After complaining, I received the original 2-pack as ordered, so I came out a battery ahead. Still not worth all the hassle though.

The best place to learn about ways to update to win 11, and even ask questions, maybe get help if you're stuck is at: https://www.elevenforum.com/questions/install-update-activate/ There are many members who are very knowledgeable and willing to share and help. Anandtech is (or was) an...

How does one know EXACTLY what he'll get after ordering from such a page? I can't figure it out. That's one reason I rarely order from bezos. So much rubbish on each product page, but I guess it worked for him, cause he's flying around in his spaceship :)

Go to your first link (titled ENJOY!) About half way down that page is: Product information Product Dimensions 17.32 x 5.91 x 0.98 inches Item Weight 1.59 pounds ASIN B0BZ4562W5 Item model number BK104-Black Batteries 1 AAA batteries required. Customer...

The amazon page says it uses a AAA battery. Some of the reviews mention it too. I han't figure out what the hell it's for.
