I have a Rampage Extreme VI Encore and Lian Li OD11 case with hot swappable drives and am having trouble actually having the drives show up. They appear in disk managers, but, in "This PC", they do not appear at all. It's my first case with hot swappable drives, so not entirely sure how to fully enable these through the BIOS. Does anyone know / or have this mobo/case that can help?:|

If you can see them in disk manager, have they been formatted and assigned drive letters?

this?
I tried both the standalone unsupported Aura and the "updated" Armoury Crate. They both only ever saw my memory and were resources hogs. The Armour Crate is what required their secondary uninstall program to remove the rot from my computer.

iCUE is even worse.

No, I don't want any RGB active if I can help it. I'm glad my board doesn't have backside rgb nonsense because then I'd be trying to rip the leds off the board at this point.

Back when phone taps were the thing the mob and other organized crimminals would meet person to person in a public place, sometimes cover their face with a newspaper so they couldn't be filmed talking and such and other extreme measures. Not saying people need to do that, but always amazed at how even people breaking the law will make sure they have their phone handy that tracks them, will have sent stuff regarding it via text and the list goes on an on. I don't think you would have to go all out, but seriously "something".

Surprised there hasn't been a murder case yet of someon asking "Siri, how do I murder someone?"

During the trial of Pedro Bravo, who is charged with kidnapping, strangling and murdering his friend Christian Aguilar in September 2012, prosecutors showed evidence that he had a photo of a Siri search that said, "I need to hide my roommate."

Anybody have a good keyboard recommendation? Preferably, something around $100-$150? I thought about Apex Pro, but a fucking OLED display on a keyboard seems like a total fucking waste and it feels like I'd be paying $50 for shit I'd never use.

I bought this Amazon product ASIN B016MAK38U hunk of Chinese shit 3 years ago to cheap out and because I thought I wanted a "minimalist" keyboard. However, I've realized I actually miss the numpad ever since I've been able to WFH a lot more and the switches are loud as fuck.

I posted a video in the keyboard thread on one that looked pretty interesting to me
