[18:29] netritious: have a good wekeend [18:29] oh and Unit193 ^^ ? [18:29] wrst: More than good, yourself? [18:30] pretty good [18:30] Unit193: listening to some AC/DC on shuffle [18:30] back at work... [18:30] wrst [18:31] wrst: it was great [18:32] I would like to do it again this weekend :) [18:32] that would just be to much fun [18:33] ha ha I would like to try and see :) [18:33] :) [18:40] wow SSDs have gotten cheap(er) [18:41] * wrst wishes netritious had not brought that to his attention [18:42] around the $0.50 per gigabyte [18:45] getting much much better [18:45] I'm guessing eventually that will be the way even for large storage solutions? [18:47] SSD? IDK. I don't think mechanical HDDs are going anywhere soon [18:49] I guess it just depends on who is in charge of the IT budget [18:49] how much stoarge do you need versus how much money can you spend [18:55] wrst are you looking to upgrade? [18:58] netritious: no I'm not I have a SSD in my laptop and a spinner for storage [18:58] but more speed is always better :) [18:58] ah I'm upgrading my laptop from spinner to ssd [18:59] I replaced the optical drive with the old 640GB spinner and put a 120GB SSD in place of the spinner [18:59] so the optical drive is out for me [19:00] only SATAII on my laptop interface and drive is SATAIII, but whatever...beats spinner any day [19:00] that's a cool setup wrst [19:00] on an older laptop but works well [19:00] hm wonder if I can do that [19:00] I'm sata II also [19:01] they sale those adpaters as long as it is a SATA optical drive [19:02] mine isn't new... refurb Dell E6410 but I like it [19:02] mine is a $499 special asus from about 3 or 4 years ago :) [19:02] I'm really thinking I might go with a macbook next time [19:03] all my laptops were older than that. sold or gave them away and now have 3x E6410 for <$800 [19:04] nice, I'm not seeing enough advances really that warrants buying tcomputer parts very often [19:05] I am once again, after a fifteen year hiatus, trying to move my desktop to a notebook :S [19:06] ha ha [19:06] I have no desktop any more [19:06] well I have my old desktop running freenas [19:08] I'm just tired of being tied to my desk, but I think the laptop with some upgrades will do ok as a replacement. [19:11] will also end up with spare parts for the other two laptops, and if my laptop dies, I can just move my ram and HDD.. unless it's the RAM or HDD that dies lol [19:13] with any luck this will be here today... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148821 [19:15] this is what sold me.... power consumption when active? 0.15W [19:16] sweet [19:16] very nice [19:17] that and upgrading ram to 8GB, and will try to install qubes first. will see what happens from there. [19:18] I'm running 8GB of ram but a much smaller ssd but its very nice [19:18] I like VM's, and a healthy dose of snapshots...on my desktop with 256GB SSD it's fast, but to small [19:26] speak of the angel... http://imgur.com/uW1RUzO [19:27] sweet [19:27] very nice [19:28] * wrst suspects netritious is about to leave for a while [19:52] running system diag now [20:03] sweet [22:37] bbl
