<semi-relevant tangent>I’m actually using a SCSI2SD 5.0 which has a micro USB slot (if I linked the right item, it’s a micro-male-to-regular-SD-female extender, which would not work in your 5.1, so I assume you’re using something else .... ?).
Here’s an actual link:

That would be a fine use case for it.I wonder if that means that it would be able to kill two A/UX birds with one stone.
Err, no? I'm not sure where you sourced this erroneous information from, but you're completely wrong. We (Inertial Computing, who is the OEM that manufactures them) ran out of stock, due to a surge in demand, for about three weeks. Respectfully, please don't spread FUD. SCSI2SD V5.1's are now generally available again, and we will continue to make them as long as the parts can be sourced in volume, and the demand doesn't abate, which it's far from doing.I do have a SCSI2SDv6 (and soon a RaSCSI) but as all my spinning disks are failing at an alarming rate and v5's seem to be sold out indefinitely
Sorry, but this isn't a good look for your store. Correcting someone is fine, but this aggressive style does not win you customers.Err, no?

We also have plenty of V5.5's available, and have just ordered another thousand.
Sorry, but incorrect information shared on forums is more toxic to our business than someone being _potentially_ butthurt that we've called them out on spreading misinformation.Sorry, but this isn't a good look for your store.

Sure thing. I'll just make sure you blacklist you, and get the SCSI2SD from ITEAD instead. Thanks for making that decision for me!Sorry, but incorrect information shared on forums is more toxic to our business than someone being _potentially_ butthurt that we've called them out on spreading misinformation.
Be my guest. Their assembly quality has declined as of late, so buyer beware.Sure thing. I'll just make sure you blacklist you, and get the SCSI2SD from ITEAD instead. Thanks for making that decision for me!
All he would have had to do to get an answer on when we'd be back in stock is ask. It doesn't seem that ever happened, which is unfortunate. Choosing to spread inaccurate information online as a result of a conclusion reached in a vacuum is a problem that extends well beyond 68kMLA, and it's societally corrosive.Indeed. Very glad to have the outage period defined and that the situation has normalized. Indefinitely does not mean permanently and does not imply any length of time. One sentence would have sufficed for error correction.
It is not your customers' responsibility to ask probing questions about your stock control. If you do not communicate explicitly and openly when things are available, people will not care to know.All he would have had to do to get an answer on when we'd be back in stock is ask.

By your own statement, the poster's statement was completely accurate; it was out of stock and they had no idea when they would be back in stock again. Saying that they had a responsibility to chase you up because you're unable to put the information they needed on your website doesn't seem entirely fair.Choosing to spread inaccurate information online as a result of a conclusion reached in a vacuum is a problem that extends well beyond 68kMLA, and it's societally corrosive.
It was listed as backordered on our web shop for the entire period of ~2.5-3 weeks,. I guess that wasn't good enough, so we will try to do better next time. When we don't know exactly when we'll have the next batch, we have a policy of not over-promising and under-delivering. 2020 has been a very painful year for anyone dealing with supply chains and lead times.It is not your customers' responsibility to ask probing questions about your stock control.

These posts show you and Inertial in neither an amiable nor an edifying light, and I think you need to walk away from the computer and de-stress.
But, I mean, this is exactly what the word "indefinite" means. So you have literally just said exactly the same thing that the poster said and you're still acting like it's some kind of slander?When we don't know exactly when we'll have the next batch
It's not at all slander. Just uninformed.But, I mean, this is exactly what the word "indefinite" means. So you have literally just said exactly the same thing that the poster said and you're still acting like it's some kind of slander?

Noting bad behaviour and supporting people on the pointy end of it is important.Let's all do that lest a mod needs step in shall we?
With respect, you're accusing me of calling someone toxic and socially corrosive when I did _not_. I described the behavior as toxic, not the person. And I sincerely believe that wasn't the intent, but go ahead and willfully misinterpret what I said. It's fine with me.really? but also:

Now you're saying that I'm wilfully misinterpreting you because the way you came across didn't match up with how you thought you should have come across? What with me and the poster, there's a proper conspiracy against you on this forum of people who like your product, isn't there? Good grief.With respect, you're accusing me of calling someone toxic and socially corrosive when I did _not_. I described the behavior as toxic, not the person.

Now you're just being silly. You can readily read above where I described " incorrect information shared on forums " being "more toxic to our business". In no way did I call you or anyone else toxic. Should I have said "inaccurate" instead of "incorrect"? Absolutely. But don't put words in people's mouths. That's just childish.Now you're saying that I'm wilfully misinterpreting you because the way you came across didn't match up with how you thought you should have come across?
