Damn, that's a lot of storageSo I maxed out the HD's in my tower, total of about 9TB useable. Just purchased 2 of these which will allow me to add some new movies I just bought and with room to spare.

I thought you had other subs before. What were they? Regardless, that's quite a good bargain, congratulations. How are your neighbors going to react?

Ken, a good while ago I dismantled all of my gear due to some major setbacks that affected both my health and my pocket book. Have had to start all over. The good thing is I have made some progress in that regard. Came across the opportunity to get the SB12-NSD's. Just could NOT pass on it. As such, I pounced! Kind of wished I had ordered (4) of them though. But, happy to have duals for the time being. No need to pile up a lot of debt. Thanks!
Cheers,
Phil

Right. Sorry for the delay. Doing paint & carpet this week. They have a couple "ears" that slide over the sides of your receptacle making contact w/ the hot and ground screws. The instructions show a number of problems that could exist w/ your receptacle, things that could block the ears, and how to work around most of them. So far I'm lucky. Just a little jiggling when I slid them on and they work fine. I like 'em.

Yeah, at that point, you might as well just swap the entire receptacle, don't even bother with trying to finagle possible shady connections into place! The hardest part of that is typically finding the correct breaker to shut off if your panel isn't labeled, maybe a 10 minute job.
Guess they are trying to cater to people that don't know how to swap a receptacle, but that really is a trivial task.

Did quite a bit of listening to them already. They are bigger than I expected, though not as big as my CA0W1s. They do feel and look like an inexpensive speaker, though they definitely don't sound like one. Low sensitivity means they need to be pushed a little harder.

Bought (2) more SVS SB12-NSD's and they are on their way here as we speak. Supposed to be delivered on Saturday. Boy, do I ever have lots of work to do. May need some new cabling as well. Tried to order a CSL UMiK 1 , but they are currently out of stock. That is my next order!
Cheers,

Two more? Does this mean you'll have three or more when those two show up?

Figured that an electric heater probably wasn't the most efficient way to heat my garage so I'm going to try a propane heater.

Those are consumer still. They make much larger for commercial offerings; think data centers. My former neighbor was a physicist who worked at WD in the commercial storage group. I think he said the smallest thing they made was 60TB.

Well, had one fail. Although I attribute that more to Amazon's atrocious packaging, than to the actual drive itself. Amazon threw the two hard drives in a box, they were only in the anti-static bags, with some bubble wrap. The replacement is on the way, but we'll see how that goes. Also hoping the other holds up.

Hi Adam. Is that a Siberian Husky? I bought one for my daughter this year, from the local animal shelter of all places! Her name is Nakita. Best dog ever!

Sorry to hear that. I've had a good number of Seagate drives over the years. None have failed they just "got too small." I now prefer Western Digital drives.

I was going back and forth between WD and the Seagate's. The Seagates were slightly cheaper at the time, and while I've had good luck with WD, I thought it was worth a shot. I'm still not completely convinced the drives are no good. Amazon just needs to package them like $300+ hard drives and not socks.
