We absolutely cannot let the Chinese win this race to eliminate the middle class. /s

Sounds like you should just stick to joints

I was thinking something less like a hand grenade and more like a proto pipe. Not quite so in your face and inviting to dicks.

Tom’s Hardware usually does longer write tests with iometer to analyze cache size and performance however I think it may only be a 15 minute run. Here’s their review of the 2tb samsung 990

However it’s becoming less of an issue with modern ssd’s that incorporate hybrid caches and faster NAND. As long as the drive has a large enough static cache to absorb most of what you throw at it or fast enough NAND to at least be bearably fast it’s not that big of a deal. You just have to know the NAND’s limitations. Even drives like the crucial p3 are fine as long as you understand eventually writes will slow down to 80MB/s or so.

For secondary storage it’s less important but I would still try to leave some free space on OS drive for fast swap and temp file performance

Can’t wait for the day you pull a single pin out and everything just comes apart

Get a load of this guy who hasn’t figured out how to turn his fingertips square

You gotta punch him when his turban glows and you’ll get a star.

Yeah I guess it’s honestly not that bad, just takes time to get used to the feel. a more legitimate gripe would be overall quality and mushiness of the keys on their cheaper options.

They don’t share any pcie lanes - card gets 8 and SSD gets 4. Mobo needs to support single slot bifurcation.

The one question I want answered is why Lenovo chooses to make stupid shaped keys.

Man they really glossed over the part where it switched over to twisted pair from coax. It’s like saying pancakes used to be waffles and then not bothering to explain.

Hey, is this guy a doctor?
