The [H]ardForum Perpetual Freebies Thread

I am NOT thread crapping. I asked greygoose if it was OK if put in a request myself. I am trying to find 16 gig and up and any kind of flash card reader.

Hi, I asked OP if it was ok to jump on his thread and he OKed it. If you have any 8 or 16 gig I could use a total of 6. Also looking for a usb multi card reader and happy to buy or pay postage or both. Thanks
 
I bought these to replace 2 that broke over the years.
I read through everything..my garage opener has the purple learn button, and these say they work with the purple, but I cant get it to pair up

Brand new, unboxed both to setup, couldnt get it, so back in the box it went.

Unfortunately I’m heading out on the road for work, but I do have some. If it can wait till I get back I’ll list what I have.

Side note, if anyone can use usb flash drives, I have those too.

USB flash drives is what im looking for. No rush at all

Acceptable sizes? Details…..

I was looking for AT LEAST one 8gb (minimum) sized card, and at least 5 additional cards of any size.

Probably got lost in the confusion, lol.

I have some USB flash drives as well, but would need time to go through them and make sure they're wiped etc. So grey I can probably help if Gill doesn't have what you're looking for.

I might even have a compact flash card for narsy with one of my old digital cameras. Will try to check later this evening if still needed - have to work for a few hours on a server rack move but hoping to wrap up early this afternoon.

Yeah, overlooked that. I’ll have to dig out what I have when I get home and list them.

Anyone looking shoot me a pm with what’s needed.
 
Jokes aside... does anyone have... a working brother.... printer for cost of shipping? (around $20)
Something laser, black and white.

That’s actually an excellent printer man. I bought one refurbed for $50? From staples last year. I’ll see if I can find something kicking around
 
Yeah I currently have a Dell B1165W MFP, but I have to push the paper in the loading tray, otherwise the rubber feed rollers won't grab and load the paper in. I got it for $99 back in 2015 and it has more than paid for itself in printing shipping labels for online sales. The printer still works, fusing is a bit weak (you can rub the black laser printer ink and it will smudge a slight bit). It's still holding up for single shipping labels. If its a multi page print, I have to feed each sheet in manually.

Otherwise, the flatbed scanner has scanned old family film photos quite well.

Might be worth looking if there's a roller kit to help with feeding?

*****Deal pending -November 5
***This GPU has been claimed. NO longer available*** -November 7

EVGA Geforce 9600 GT
part number: 512 P3 N865 AR
Pulled from working computer about 3 years ago, has been sitting in a box ever since. Yes its a bit dusty.
I dont think I have any cables for it, if you need something let me know ill try to find the cable and ship with it. Comes as just bare GPU, nothing included.

$10 max shipping cost. I pay shipping, you confirm it works and pay $10 or less if shipping is less.
Its gonna take me a minute to ship, I work next few days.

Laserjet 4100 series is also an overachiever. EVERYTHING has drivers for it (including Windows RT!), it supports an optional and easy to acquire duplexer, reasonable size unit with a reasonable size tray, good print speed. Parts and toner both cheap and easy to get. Fuser and roller replacement is dead simple. It wasn't until the 4200 series that HP started going to cheap garbage.

I keep hoping to stumble onto one locally but no luck yet.

No ram I'm afraid but I have a pile of CD's and floppys to give away. Some CPU's as well but I have to go through them.

LOL! Going through the pile found a newer CPU that is faster and has more cache than current one in "gaming rig" games like it a lot! Poor video card just being bottle-necked for dear life. Quad core next month.

Hello, are those CDs still available? Looks like there's a bunch there I need to fill in some holes in my collection. (I also use these for historical research, if any of y'all have any old magazine CDs you don't want anymore I'll take them!)

Yes sir, still have them.
 
Apologies to everyone, I used to have a bunch of various flash drives (SD, Micro SD, USB, etc.) but I can't seem to find them. They may have gotten re-purposed in RPi's that my son has been messing with but I don't recall. Regardless, I can't find anything worth giving away unless anyone wants a simple 2gb USB or a 1GB USB as those are the only two I can seem to find right now.

Look, man. 1TB and 2TB are overkill for simple file transfers, BIOS flashes, booting up a diags suite, etc. I still have a 128M flash drive I still use from time to time (as a bootable DOS flash, usually -- BIOS reads mine as a USB floppy lol).
