QA does need to know the expected behavior, but the specified behavior can have some flexibility, eg. performance better than x.

I turned on "Better Performance" and it's working with Storage Spaces but not Disk Management. Apparently the "Better Performance" option only shows up for removable drives. These are 5400rpm drives and I'm getting >100MB/s on large file copies, so I'm satisfied. Now I just need to figure out...

I'm running Windows 11 Pro and the only Policy I can find in Device Manager is write-caching... I don't see a "Better Performance" policy.

That could be it, let me give it a try. Thanks a lot!

I have an Orico USB drive enclosure that currently has two 12TB SATA drives in them and I can use the individual drives just fine. But when I try to set up disk mirroring in Windows with either disk manager or storage spaces I always get an error about "operation not supported" or "sector size...

To answer my own question, MD series requires an external SAS port on a Dell server typically supplied by a RAID card like the H840 while the NX series requires an Ethernet connection (NAS.)

Adam Schiff? ;) I'm voting for him

That's what I'm thinking of now. What is the difference between the MD series and NX series like NX3200?

Thanks for your reply! I'll look for used servers with enough SAS slots then.

I got ten used 3TB SAS drives for a good price, I was wondering what relatively inexpensive enclosures would be to put them in. One choice would be to get a used server, are there also JBOD/RAID enclosures for SAS similar to SATA ones? It doesn't have to hold all ten, but a minimum of 4 drives...

I think RFK Jr. is beyond redemption already.

This being a technical site, I wrote a simple program to calculate the probability of Harris winning. Assuming the winning probability for MI/WI/NV/PA/AZ/GA/NC at 90/90/80/60/20/10/10%, I get 57.65% for the overall probability. So PA is still key.

I'm of course very happy to see your numbers, but isn't it true that the early voters are historically mostly Democrats?

Nevada looks like a Harris win, Arizona is a likely loss....

Agreed that if Harris can't win the 18-29 group she'll lose.

It makes me a little suspicious to see Harris trailing in WI and MI; I think she is relatively safe in those two states.

I can confirm that the IRA is having a huge impact on the clean energy industry.

I agree 99%:) But for every presidential election, the other choice seems so odious that mentally I feel I'm forced to choose the Democrat... In reality I live in California, but still I don't like the feeling.

I'm not sure if it's easier to quickly scan through text vs video or I'm just getting old, but for most content I still prefer text. I mostly watch video for stuff that is hard to understand, eg. proof of Godel's First Incompleteness Theorem :)

Based on my searching, I should be able to download normal PDF files onto a 4th-generation Kindle (model D01100) with a USB cable from my Windows machine. Can someone confirm this for me? Thanks!
