Texas reeks of freedom.

Wow. Good luck with life bro.

Man you’re slow.

I don’t need to think about anything. I’ve built out millions upon millions of dollars worth of infrastructure over the past 20 years. I understand the options.

I answered the question asked. Others hinted at raid solutions. OP went out of his way to let us know how he’s a newb so good luck with that.

Long term solution is 100% setting up a raid.

Ask OP

Yeah, of course it is. Because that’s what OP asked for. I don’t see ( use it for a bit first and then automatically copy it over ).

I see:

Is it possible to use SSD drive as a catch drive for 12 TB HDD so it uses SSD speeds when downloading and moves files to HDD later on?

I assumed OP wanted Faster Download Speeds > Time to Access File

You know what. I don’t care. This whole post is ridiculous.

Of course it’s an additional step. But it will download faster. Which was what you asked for, specifically in your post above.

If you write directly to your HDD it will take longer to download. If you write to your ( faster?) SSD the download will be faster but yeah, processing has another step of copying.

I’m sorry, but I have no idea what you’re asking.

Best of luck.

Is it possible to use SSD drive as a catch drive for 12 TB HDD so it uses SSD speeds when downloading and moves files to HDD later on?

Is that not what you asked for?

Yes, if the temporary directory where the files are being downloaded (incomplete folder) is on the SSD, then it will be faster, especially if you’ve identified a cheap HDD as your bottleneck.

Unless you are incorrect about the HDD being the bottleneck.

Yes. It’s part of the application and well documented. What did you try and not work?

It would be highly uncharacteristic of Microsoft not to try competing with the Valve.

They had years of opportunity to provide better gaming hardware and software for their customers, but they didn’t. Now that the SteamDeck has gained popularity, they’ve realized the need refresh the lXbox”, likely with an emphasis on Gaming as a Service (Game Pass) and a strong push into streaming games. What they’ve been doing which is basically anything to get people to subscribe.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they released new features or hardware requirements that hinder the SteamDeck’s ability to play newer Microsoft game releases. It wouldn’t be too difficult for them, considering they’ve purchased a significant portion of the gaming market. One thing is certain—there will be zero innovation.

One more thought…

I used to kind of enjoy them until one of them hit on a subject I had just researched and knew immediately how they were spinning it. I can’t stand them now.

That’s a fair point.

My personal opinion:

With that mindset, I imagine you’ve written off all of the news? Or no? Because no one has a perfect record. No one.

Over the years, I’ve learned to always keep the big picture in mind. While these comedy shows often bend things for the sake of humor, they’ve still provided me with valuable perspectives, ideas, and information on topics I wasn’t previously aware of. As an adult, these shows often serve as a starting point or introduction to subjects that I then research further on my own. It’s funny how we hold these comedians and writers to a higher bar than news stations.

Definitely. I completely agree. Which is why I mentioned it at the end of my comment.

One thing I will say though, as an adult, watching those comedy shows, I’m aware it’s a comedy show. Some shows are better than others reporting accurately. But it’s still a comedy show and advertised as such. Yet they have never reached even remotely the level of nonsense presented HOURLY of TV News Networks like OAN and Fox News.

My main concern is that, because the focus is primarily on making money, some young people might mistake entertainment for truth. The content creators are more interested in earning money and are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve that, rather than providing accurate discourse. In reality, this election is not a viral video, a TikTok challenge, or a source of amusement. It is a serious real-life event with significant consequences.

The other side of that coin is that society has been publicly parodying candidates since the beginning. So who am I to judge this new form of it.

Edit: This keeps getting brought up about how it’s already happening in the mainstream. I’m in agreement with that and thought my last paragraph broadly covers that acknowledgment.

We hope our kids are provided the education and tools to think critically when they are adults, but children ingesting financially driven politics on Chinese TikTok just hits wrong.

It’s an LLM with well documented processes and limitations. Not going to even watch this waste of bits.

Again? I’m blocking this fool.

This is the 8th time some of us have seen this posted.

Also not everyone agrees that this makes sense. Asking people to post, link and comment any all racism even if it’s just a description.

This person seems to think the solution to racism is segregation and making different rules for the races. Also this person only seems to be fixated on black vs white. It’s all very odd.
