    Post your hard drive Power On hours!

    Well, FYI, Torrent is alive and well. Even for Comcast users. Other than the download limit, any decent VPN or VPS provider can get around those restrictions.

    HGST 8TB HUH728080ALE600/HUH728080ALE604 for $149.00/$179.99 Repectively

    Yes, it states 3 year warranty, plus standard 30 day return to newegg. Even if the drive is DOA, I have no intention of returning to the seller. I have used Seagate's advance return countless times and find it way more efficient than dealing with resellers.
