    That’s how I got a free netbook. It had 32GB and could not be expanded. 27GB on it was wasted on windows and office. And then it needed to download an 8GB update.

    Owner had to buy a new one, I got the old one for free. It now has 26GB free, with Linux, libreoffice, and developer tools already installed.

    Try being a graphic designer or video editor. I’ve stopped running out of disk space and started running out of SATA slots on the mobo.

      Got space for a PCIe 8x card? Get a lsi2308 and a set of SAS to SATA cables. 8 drives off that bad boy, and actually reliable unlike every single PCI or PCIe SATA card I’ve ever tried.
