Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Thanks for piquing my curiosity. Crucial Memory seems to indicate maximum memory is 20GB.
I have an IdeaPad with similar and have contemplated upgrading the RAM; it currently has 4GB onboard and a 4GB in SODIMM slot.
I still have a couple of external modems, but don't have duplicates of them. May need to check if that old bbs is still working. 😂🤣 I may have a 33.6K US Robotics that I may be able to part with?
MicroCenter is my Stop and Shop for PC hardware, been to 3 of 4 stores in NY. Just went to the one in Brooklyn for an Intel AX200 wireless kit.
Back in the days, CompUSA and Circuit City, rebates galore.
Do the math, 8-10GB a day? On basis of 10GB a day, 1 TB in 100 days, so 3.66 TB per year for argument sake. This should be way below the TBW of the warranty of 3-5 years. In a nutshell, you should be fine. Consider the type of NAND and the warranty.
Will it benefit from faster memory? Nothing faster supported by the processor, at least according to Intel. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/88967/intel-core-i76700hq-processor-6m-cache-up-to-3-50-ghz/specifications.html
My mistake, I just tried it, it was a Motorola charger, but not for Startac :( I looked it up and turned out it was a charger for the Motorola Nextel i1000; was wondering why it didn't fit in my Startac. I will have to search the house again next time when I am back.
One thing I learned with rebates, watch that billing address and shipping address. If they are different, they may deny it. I fought Gigabyte on that note one time, they caved and sent the rebate. Glad to hear you are getting your rebate.
Found the Startac charger on Sunday afternoon, but given the age, the plastic/rubber that insulates the wire has cracked or come off a bit. Don't have a picture now.
