Recent Newegg loot

[IPNixon]

A box from Newegg came today. In it was:

2 SATA cables

Transcend 2.5" SATA HD case (N82E16817349007)

Seagate 1.5 TB (yes, terabyte) SATA HD (N82E16822148337)

D-Link 5-port gigabit ethernet switch (N82E16833127083)

I'm slowly starting to move away from the life of 10/100 and IDE stuff, as you can tell.

I'll probably put the 1.5 TB HD in my Optiplex, and move the Optiplex's 200GB HD to the ThinkCentre M50 I just got. The HD case already has an 80GB 2.5" drive in it, and the gigabit switch is in place.

I'm kinda excited.

1.5TB? Yea well you will get married before that sucker is finished formatting in Windows.

Should of got a WD instead of Seagate, in my opinion. There have been lots of problems with the Seagate ones. Anyway, NICE.

Is purchasing something retail really a "Conquest"?

Conquests: Discuss your latest finds!

I suppose so. He found it, it just so happened that someone wanted some money before they shipped 'em

Well I thought about that too, but I was just really really happy to finally get it all. I thought it'd get here Friday, but it took the (long) weekend to arrive here.

I prefer WD and Seagate over anything else. I've never had a Seagate drive die on me

Don't forget to backup that HD to floppy disk!

Sometimes I pay for an old Mac but it still feels like a conquest when I do

you allow your bank account to be conquered by outside forces.

you roll a 3.

It's a conquest, I think, if you get the Mac for free or you save it from doom, such as paying for it at the recycler.
