    Oh, and codec, lossless for music. And i rip to mkv for movies/uhd. Whatever makemkv does. Oh, I also copied a bunch of friends collections. Thats how I got so many movies and music. They appreciate the backup.

    Lol, ok I have 4x WD 8tb mybook drives sittin here plugged into usb 3. I have an extensive collection of DVD/bluray that I've purchased over the years. 2 full bookcases, and numerous racks. I also ripped and shipped every disc ive rented from netflix the last 10-15 years or howver long ive had netflix. In addition, I recently got a asus 4k pc drive with hacked firmware, and I've ripped my whole 4k collection, which takes like up to 100gb per movie. So yes bro, I've filled up the drives, granted the 4th drive isnt totally full. And also keep in mind, my music collection are on these drives too.

    I will never stream anything. I have enough music now to last the rest of my life. New stuff sucks anyways. As far as movies, I prefer high quality, hdr, 4k content on a high end home theater and sound system. I will never purchase a streamed pos low quality viewing. When they finally take away discs, I'm out. My plex server currently serves me around 32TB of movies. I'll just re-watch those till I die. Or, see what the pirates have in store for me for download.

    Thats what you get, dumbass. You want to make a few extra bucks renting out your mansion in pure greed. Anyone who rents their actual house is an utter moron. I can maybe see if you owned a rental. But even then, no. Also, I would run some bleach through that hot tub for a while.

    I know its just funny. Hackers created the first nes emulator and invented the ines format. We pirate roms and use the emulator. Nintendo later pirates the emulator format, possibly the emulator, and possibly used ripped roms rather than rip them from scratch.

    It has been discovered nintendo used the .nes format, and very likely sources their roms from the already pirated versions.

  18. I'm pretty sure Hotswap! flushes the cache and makes it safe. But you do need to have it plugged into a controller thats hot swappable. I do this with sata drive that plug into the caddy built into my case.

  19. I always eject it, but sometimes it says its in use and won't let me. But I want to pull it out NOW, so too bad its getting yanked out.
    I also use a program called Hotswap! that ejects alot better than the windows one, AND lets me do sata drives and things that normally don't show up in the windows eject.

    Thats why reserved seating is so great. You have exactly 15 mins of previews before the movie. So if the movie starts at 6:00pm like ant-man did last night for me, get to your reserved seat at 6:15, and you go right into the movie.
