From elevated command prompt:
manage-bde -off x:
where x is the drive letter you want to decrypt.
While it's running check out disk transfer rate in task manager. 🙃
The resistor is around a million ohms (1 meg OHM) limiting the power to around 15 milliwatts! (120V example). That's just over a tenth of a milliamp which is less than most people's threshold to feel it. To get 1W, the resistor would be around 15,000 ohms and the current would be approaching...
Sounds like a floating ground scenario where your case was not earthed. If it's plugged in (obviously it was as you said it was running), this should not happen as the PSU screws will ensure that part is indeed earthed as long as your power supply is connected to a properly grounded outlet. If...
Yes. Ideally you want the dissolved oxygen to be close to zero too.
It's hard to get things near perfect in a home environment. Additives, in theory can help but without monitoring cycles of concentration, flow control and delta across devices that have backpressure it's hard to tell...
Nostalgia.
Same reason why some will pay $$$ for a scratchy old 78rpm Wurlitzer jukebox with bubble tubes when a phone and partybox would be louder and more detailed. ;-)
Yep, that's your answer right there. Purest water (ideally 18meg+ RODI) measuring 00000TDS is best.
Keep it dark as possible (completely opaque hoses and reservoirs), NO boutique reservoirs (waterfalls, lighting, et al).
Pure silver kill coil OK.
Also it is a very good idea to assemble...
Always use Laing OEM parts and pure distilled water. 100s of k hours.
But run dry and the bearing is toast.
If you need higher flow and head use Iwaki RD30. They deliver the goods.
$650 at my local Microcenter with 5 in stock.
My 14900K has more "biscuits" than the 14900KS does according to the Aorus BIOS (like ASIC quality on NV).
The 14900K will run 192GB RAM at DDR5 5600 and the KS is stuck in training hell. Go figure.
My biggest issue with Teams is default auto starting.
It's amazing how much faster a well optimized Windows system is compared to the out of the box experience. Particularly with vendor preloads with ridiculous amounts of crapware.
Anyone using SSDs for caching larger volumes of spinning rust?
We had an issue with a few Synology Rackstations where copying/reading hundreds of thousands of small files into a database application was chugging even on 10Gbit. Added a pair of 2TB nvme drives and performance went back up to...
Can confirm it approaches 15GB/S reads and 13GB/S writes.
Real world copying from one drive to another hits 6GB/S in explorer and was pretty stable (multiple VHDX files in the 600GB range).
Bare drives using mobo heatsink (Aorus Extreme X) and they were pushing over 65C. Without a heatsink...
Disabling those features including uninstalling works initially but it will come back later, often surreptitiously. Like many unwanted programs.
I'm in the crowd that will install what I need when I need it. None of this forced nonsense. Copilot comes to mind. As with search clutter. The OS...
Microcenter is awesome! I'm lucky to live within an hour drive to two of their stores and if I expand that to 3 hours, maybe half a dozen!
They definitely need on in Florida. Miami is a stretch, maybe Orlando is next? ;-)
It gives tweakers something to do, always.
I've been debloating, whatever you want to call it, since Win95.
It gets challenging particularly with Defender removal with each iteration.
The day (Windows) fails to boot or function without that spyware running is the day the ship sails for them.
At...
That's past the point of diminishing returns.
You could always go heat killer block, Iwaki RD30 and four MORA Pro3 rads with 36 140mm fans running on 7V for something much quieter and have coolant temp same as your room! ;-)
Of course no computer is intrinsically silent if you want to go there.
But out of all of the computers I use, it is the least noticeable by far. And very far!
Just having an Intel laptop checking for updates gets the fan very noticeable using the balanced power profile and if set to...
What I've seen with A series mobile chips, it would be more than adequate. Remember it's dedicated for gaming and not a PC that can do other tasks. Heat issues would be far easier to control so clocks will stay locked at highest levels and there wouldn't be a display just a mm away heating...
I'm thinking ports running natively and a console. Around the price of a PS5 maybe less. They don't need crazy hardware profits, the store would take care of that.
I don't game but in video editing, the M3 Max with 128GB has been a game changer. My Threadripper rig hardly gets turned on now...
A lot of people are infuriated over this! On MS forum at that!

No, I don't want to be forced to use something I don't need or don't want. Is that simple enough?
AI is either Artificial Intelligence OR Advanced Intelligence. The latter is far more commonplace.
Speaking of search, yes back when (XP) had SQL server running for search and indexing killed performance (no ssds then) it was utterly ridiculous.
It's getting to the point where they want everything to have an orb and you just ask for what you want. Do not want this at all! If you ever have...
Wait for the 14900Z+++ version. 6GHz base clock.
600W and stacked direct die coldplate needed with cascade refrigeration required to keep under 80°C when running cinebench for more than five minutes...
EDIT:
Talk about diminishing returns! My 14900K on AIR gets nearly 41K in CB23.
Those...
I only recently went with the 990 in 4TB size due to it being single sided and being a better match for ultrabook duty.
Both as mentioned are great drives!
They will charge what fools are willing to pay. Imagine back in 2001 if you invested $350 in NVDA instead of buying that shiny new (then) Geforce3! :-P
