11/29 - Fully Stuffed Friday!

I'm looking to pick up a 1TB SSD. Anyone with strong tech opinions have any advice?

I was looking at these:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L3D19MY/?tag=thtv02-20

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078DPCY3T/?tag=thtv02-20

but the mounting and converter cable tack on about $15

So then I was looking at this:

and a whole mess of other ones. Any advice would be appreciated.

I was hoping for a San-Turk Clause

 

The daily thread from when we were naming the snowman a couple years ago was probably my favorite day on turkerhub.

 

Don't get QVO/QLC, they are notorious for slowing down with more data.

Best guide pretty much, I recommend a 860 evo for $99, keep your eyes peeled, I'm sure there will be another deal :

Edit: You don't need a mount for a 2.5" ssd, I personally use velcro and stick it to the case.

 

looking back, there's so many names associated with requesters who aren't around anymore.

snoblisCV
Remote Carrot Mechanical Turk,
etc

 

I was always fond of @Melting Glacier 's HotCoCoSci Lab at I.C. Brrrrkley

 

Seeing the other bonus amounts people are reporting makes me sigh...but bad luck today hopefully will turn into good luck next time, and I've had some good bonuses from Choice Labs so far, so I can't really complain.

 

Thanks a lot, I was going down a bit of a rabbit hole there. Do I want/need a USB to hard drive adapter or does it work just as well just using the USB.

he is a very bad requester. Most of his assignments you will not see a email. Stay away from this requester. Don't do it. He will reject you quick.

It is cold and I cannot keep my hands together.

 

You are just using it as an internal drive? Just hook it up to a free SATA slot on the motherboard, hook it to power and that's it.

Are you looking for an internal SSD or an external one? What do you want to use it for and where (laptop or desktop)?

 

No. Be warm.

 

He's oblivous and I mentioned it to him and he'd always claim I was being paranoid...for about 18 months or so?


And then a bunch of people bailed on a planned trip and they went camping alone (i trust him, so whateves) and when they came back, he did that exact face. Took him another couple of months before he admitted in words that I wasn't paranoid at all. And yeah, DUH. DUH, BOT! DUH!

 

Desktop. I think I may have gotten confused because amazon was suggesting the converter cord as frequently bought together so I assumed it wouldn't just plug in.
