A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions


Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have funDoxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.


6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online


7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.


Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

SSDs as well. I stuck 2TB in my PS5 for under 100 quid.

Now they're closer to 300.

Me getting excited for a deal on an NVMe SSD for under 400USD total recently was… sad. I have a receipt from when we built my partner’s computer… two 2TB NVMe drives for 85 each. Can uhhhhhh I please have bought ten instead of two?

Similarly, SD and microSD cards. Much like RAM and storage, I wished I threw away my adult responsibility a bit and stocked up on them

I actually had to look up M2 drives to see if the image above was those.

M2 has the connectors on the end rather than the side, but they don't look too different otherwise.

Careful about flashing that kind of cash

RAM is the new component to become overpriced.

It is <2016, 2019, 2026>*. I'm using a 1050Ti.

* new, re-used in otherwise new build, and not buying anything respectively.
