Original Title: Canadian researchers found that the medical recommendations on the Dr. Oz Show are not good. The numbers: evidence supported 46%, contradicted evidence 15%, and was not found for 39% of the recommendations.

I have already copied a folder with my files to another drive using file explorer not teracopy. I've just got teracopy, i know i can test each folder to get a hash file for each folders. But with a hash file save for each folder how do i get teracopy to compare both hash files to confirm if the files are the same?

I'm thinking of replacing my WD Ultrastar HC520 (SATA) 12 GB HDDs with Seagate Exos 2x14 Mach.2 (SATA) 14 GB HDDs. I thought the Seagate would be around at least as fast, if not a touch faster - and it is in sequential r/W - but in random 4K QD1 T1 tests, according to a video review of the Seagate 2x18 (even slightly faster than the 2x14), my WD seems to completely & utterly obliterate the Seagate to the point that I'm skeptical of the results and rubbing my eyes in disbelief.

I've included a picture of the tests but here's a breakdown.

My WD is performing around 3.5x - 4.0x faster in 4K random reads and around 1.6x - 1.7x faster in 4K random writes.

For a HDD to be around 3.5 - 4.0x faster in something than another HDD, that's like 20 years or so of progress, isn't it? Normally drives are like 20% faster here, 5% slower there, etc., not 250-300 % faster than another competitor's drive.

Is the WD Ultrastar really 3.5x - 4.0x faster in 4k random reads and 1.6x - 1.7x faster in random writes? This seems unbelievable to me. Even "unbelievable" is an understatement. There's just no way.

System:

• Motherboard: Asus Z790-A Strix D4
• CPU: Intel i9-14900KS
• GPU: Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti
• RAM: G.Skill 2x 16 GB Samsung B-die dual-rank 4200 MHz, 16-16-16-32, fully tuned (secondary, tertiary, etc. timings)
• OS: Windows 10

P.S. I have my WD drives connected via USB 3.2 via a very cheap USB 3.2 HDD enclosure.

Not sure if this is the right place but I couldn't find any dedicated subs for DC++

I started using DC++ and I had the client set up to establish it's own connectivity settings. In my router I can see the port forwarding rules it has created.

It allows me to connect to the hub in Active mode, and connect to users, but after ~10 minutes I lose the ability to connect to users directly. If I restart DC++ the problem is corrected but will again happen after several minutes.

Im trying to get some advice on how I can set up connectivity/port forwarding settings so the connection remains established/uninterrupted.

Or, if there's a better place I can go to ask about this id appreciate being pointed in that direction.

I plan to buy some storage to start better equipping my current home pc (which is currently mostly used for competitive gaming aka old/low graphics, intensive browsing/research, video capture etc.) to handle the large amount of irreplaceable media I already have collected, and to soon begin "archiving" (no need to correct, I know buying drives is not actual archiving) orders of magnitude more video and photos from many sources including my own, which I will be accessing/loading, editing, and moving around a lot. Eventually the goal will be to assemble it all into a project which can be insured on other machines, hosted etc. I don't know that the totality of the data will exceed, let's say 50tb, but no way to know. In the meantime I would like use my few 1tb SSDs to start collecting and working on the data, and a single large high quality interal HDD to both constantly mirror the SSDs and amalgamate what is finished and ready to stow away from the SSDs. From this internal HDD I will be taking consistent external backups. I don't have the money to go multiple large HDDs in RAID right now, so I am thinking of something in the 8-16tb range to get started, since for all I know total data I end up keeping could randomly end up less than that..

I have been gathering inexpensive/on sale SSDs but am now looking into a single large HDD and confused by the pricing on these items, for example, as it relates to the performance/reliability gap from desktop to enterprise hardware;

vs

https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Enterprise-Hyperscale-7200rpm-Improved/dp/B0CF5XVHMS

vs

https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Enterprise-Cache-Internal-ST10000NM0016-Refurbished/dp/B07H8PHXYH

Because this is my personal machine, I would also be tagging non-competitive games and active data of other kinds on the HDD until I need more space, so could use some guidance on what I should be looking for performance wise. I would like to stay within a $180 maximum price for this single HDD.

I dropped my EasyStore 8 TB External Drive accidentally. It was a short fall. These things are sensitive. There is no damage to the outer layer. I plug it in to my PC and the files don't come up. It also makes a clicking sound. Is it possible that I can open it up and move the disc head to the orange colored mechanism like the video I provided?

Hi everyone! I have been in on the lookout for a small 4/6 bay enclosure that can house 2.5 inch SSDs, and are specifically designed for them, not just support them and are designed for 3.5 inches, since size is my main concern. However I was not able to find one at all, does anyone know about one that I missed?

Also, I could build one myself, but I would need a power+data SATA backplane like the Pi HATs, but one that works with normal PCIE ports and not just Raspberry Pis.

If anyone knows a solution to either of the two above, please give me some points it's been very exhausting trying to find a solution.

How can we verify screenshots of tweets etc? Is there such a service. Been seeing some crazy Grok screenshots so it hit me thinking.

Hey everyone,

I came across some videos on Loom that I’d like to download. Right now, I only have access to the ones I have a direct link to. However, I’m curious if there’s a way to see all the videos a user has uploaded to Loom.

Is there a way to view a user’s entire video library uploaded on loom.com?

Thanks in advance for your help! 🙂
