Back up important files securely with this black WD easystore desktop hard drive. The 20TB capacity provides ample space for archives and videos, while the USB 3.0 connectivity provides broad compatibility with most Windows and Mac devices. This WD easystore desktop hard drive features plug-and-play functionality for a quick, simple setup.
I do regular image backups of my workstation, that has four NVMe m.2 drives . For this I need large capacity, external, hard drives. This 20TB drive is well suited for the task. Its only shortcoming is that it heats up to more than 50deg C during the long backup time, if left to its own devices. I have fixed this issue by positioning a pair of 80mm fans beneath it, to force cool air into its housing (see photo).
The drive also performs well for a hard drive, as can be seen in the results of a Crystal Disk Mark speed test. The temperature at the start of the test was 24 deg C. At the end of the test it was 33 deg C, and dropped to 25 deg C just 3 minutes after the end of the test. The fans are very effective.
I use two separate external hard drives for my backups, alternating between each one. This is good enough for my needs.
I recommend this drive to anyone needing a simple, cost effective way to do large backups.
Like a Comfy Couch! The Vernazza Soft Fabric design is based on Arozzi~s top rated Vernazza chair, but has been covered with a soft yet durable fabric used on quality furniture! The breathable material is exceptionally pleasing to sit in, while at the same time keeping you cool for long term use! The wheel base has been upgraded to an aesthetically pleasing aluminum metal with a matte black finish, and the updated gas lift added some additional height to the seat ideal, expanding its comfort range and making it an ideal choice for taller body types as well!
This chair fills my needs as a tall (6 ft 1 in) and somewhat heavy (260 lb) individual. It is also comfortable and classy looking.
The chair itself is heavy (57 lb) and arrives in a fairly massive box (62 lb). The box arrived showing some wear (photos), which is to be expected for one of its weight and size. However, the contents were very well packed and in excellent condition.
I recommend that assembly be done on a large, clear area of floor - and that an old sheet be spread over that surface to protect the chair during assembly. I carefully unpacked the pieces, and checked against the list of pieces. Everything was there, including the only tool needed for assembly and a pair of very nice white gloves to protect the very nice finish of the chair.
I very carefully read the instructions included, but found the video showing assembly to be more helpful. Working by myself and proceeding very carefully, it took me about 90 minutes to do the unpacking, repeated viewing of the installation video, and assembly. The finished chair looks very nice.
To date my main activity making use of the chair is digitizing and editting old family slides. I keep the back of the chair upright, and find it quite comfortable for my long editting sessions.
My one criticism of the chair is that the arm rests do not appear to be very sturdy - but this does not impact me as I rarely use them while doing my work on the computer.
I would not hesitate to recommend this chair.

8BitDo - Pro 2 Wireless Controller for Switch, Windows, macOS and Android - Gray
Get a handle on all the action of your favorite games with this gray 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ Bluetooth gamepad. The modifiable vibration feature offers a realistic feel while playing FPS and RPG titles, while the 1000 mAh rechargeable battery pack offers up to 20 hours of use when fully charged. This 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ Bluetooth gamepad has adjustable hair triggers for added accuracy and faster response times.
I got an incredible price for this as a Deal of the Day.
The first sign of a problem was when I hooked it up to my computer with the provided usb cable. It appeared to be charging, but the gamepad was not seen by my computer. I turned on bluetooth and it was seen. I made repeated attempts to play Forza Horizon 4 - but it would disconnect in just a few seconds.
After digging through many user reviews I found several users with the same problem, that was solved by updating the firmware of the gamepad. I found the website with the updates, and making the update was actually pretty easy.
With that done I was able to play Forza Horizon 4 using bluetooth without disconnecting.
I then tried playing using a usb cable, but one that I had on hand and knew was good. This time the gamepad immediately connected with my computer, which properly identified the gamepad.
I have deducted one star for the bluetooth connection problem. It would have been helpful if a card had been provided mentioning a possible need to update the firmware, and pointing to instructions on how to do it.
I deducted another star for what appears to be a defective usb cable. Luckily I had one of my own on hand.
I recommend this gamepad if you can get a considerable discount on it.

AVR is essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently.
I purchased my first gaming pc over two months ago, and needed a sine wave battery backup system to protect my investment. This new pc uses a 850W power supply, and can draw as much as 600W at times. This ups provides the protection my new pc needs. I have had no issues with it. It has been a good purchase.
The Best Buy essentials 4-Port USB 2.0 Hub uses a single USB port to connect up to four USB devices. Just plug the hub into your computer, and the blue LED indicating light lets you know it~s ready for your devices. A 5V, 500 mAh port output delivers consistent and quick power, while a data transfer speed of up to 480 Mbps performs at the speed you need.
I have a wealth of items that need power via a usb port- fans, speakers, etc. This powered usb hub fills that need very well - and keeps my usb 3 ports free for items that need data transmission. It is a very cost effective tool.

Crucial - P3 1TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe
Basic bootup speeds won~t cut it ~ not at work, on the go, or in the game. But the Crucial P3 SSD is anything but basic. With NVMe performance that~s more than 6x faster than SATA2 and storage capacities up to 4TB3, the P3 leaves older storage technology in the dust. Get faster bootups, downloads and file transfers, and store all your files, photos, videos, apps, and games with room to spare with the quality and dependability you expect from Crucial.
I have an older machine that uses one of these for the system drive. It works so well, and is priced so well, that I purchased a second one to use for system image backups. I clone my system drive to this each month, to use as a backup. It is a fairly fast process, and provides a good way to recover if a problem develops.
