    Today is World Backup Day

    Since it's a Backup Day thread, I'll use it to ask for a backup related question. I have 10 TB of data (audiovisuals, program installation setups, eBooks, documents etc.) that is growing slowly, but steadily. I follow 3-2-1 strategy. 2nd and 3rd copies of my data are maintained using...

    Good brightness dimming software?

    I've been using Sony KD-65XD8505 65" 4K TV, which has an IPS panel with no PWM flickering, as main-one-and-only desktop PC monitor for more than a year. I use this TV (monitor) for general Internet browsing, reading text in a form of websites, ebooks, scientific articles, watching YouTube and...

    Tinkering with a very old PC: SSD on IDE bus or PCI SATA controller?

    I was thinking of adding PCIe to SATA3 controller card to my mobo, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to boot from an SSD connected to that card, thus I’ve decided not to mess with an addon card at all. I have onboard SATA1 controller, therefore I will definitely buy SATA (not IDE) SSD, but I...

    Tinkering with a very old PC: SSD on IDE bus or PCI SATA controller?

    I’ve decided not to use PCIe to SATA3 controller card and plug an SSD directly to my motherboard’s SATA1 connector without the support of AHCI, NCQ and TRIM. I’ll be running windows XP, so probably an SSD with capacity around 60 GB would be enough. Since there will be no AHCI support, I...

    Tinkering with a very old PC: SSD on IDE bus or PCI SATA controller?

    I will use this thread to ask the same question about upgrading my really old PC with SSD. I don’t want to buy a new PC yet, because I’m able to perform all the tasks I need with my old one. Anyway, I feel that for many tasks the bottleneck is my HDD. I’ve read other users experiences with...
