It’s something that can be worked around although it will definitely be replaced, but most of today was spent investigating one of James’ external hard drives that almost continually disconnected from the computer (which made downloading games to it, updating games on it or even gaming on it an absolute pain). I checked the cord that hooked it up to the computer as well as the power cord, both of whom seemed to be functioning well as evidenced and proven by being able to hook other 8TB HDDs in the house up to them without a problem. I took the hard drive out of the casing and put it into some other casing I had and it still… wouldn’t work, even though it sounded like it was continuing to go to search for the drive in question or data on the drive. I am now downloading the games of James’ that were on that hard drive to another one that I happened to have lying around the house, which will take some time but is already going so much more smoothly than any and all attempts to use the 8TB HDD he had been using up to yesterday for that.

Truth be told the drive had been giving me issues prior to yesterday, but they were fairly sporadic issues.

Not even one day after posting a picture of Jason wearing a Pride bracelet I have to reset the password here.

I really shouldn’t have been the slightest bit surprised at all.

To be fair I should have done this several months ago, but I got a really nice price on this one so I’m happy!
