      @brianwinkelmann said in Storage Devices - CompTIA A+ 220-1001 Prof Messer:

      I am seriously thinking about buy a SSD drive to install on my old computer that is Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz, 3 GB RAM, with Windows XP and install there the Windows 10 so it can run faster, Do you think that is a crazy idea?

      Yes, it's crazy. Even if you can get a $30 SSD like we can from Amazon here in the US (small WD Green drive), it's not worth putting $30 into a computer worth at best $5.

      Pentium 4 wasn't just a 32bit processor, it was a really, really slow 32bit processor. It was so bad that they had to bring the Pentium 3 back with a new name to keep their products alive while they figured out what to do. It's considered the worst processor ever made (that got actually sold.) And with only 3GB of RAM, it doesn't have anything there going for it, either.

      It's only $55 if you shop around to get a quad core, 64bit, 8GB RAM Raspberry Pi. If you are going to talk about adding an SSD to something, start with at least that.

      Ensure your NVMe disks performing at their peak. Choose the right SCSI controller!

      I didn't get to make it up, but I have been watching the sessions and burning up my data plan. Thanks for posting these. I also wanted to take a minute to call out the guy sitting front and center to just surf the internet the entire time SAM is talking.

      I didn't even notice that, I'm going to look for it now.

      In the red? That is @DustinB3403

      Ha no it is not!

      I think describing the heads as moving in and out is more appropriate since they're mounted on an armature, like a record player, and not forward or backward. I often use record players as a description for clients when they ask how drives work.

      In my writing, I try to avoid use 'but' and things like it (however, etc.). Replace the word 'but' with 'and' as an exercise to see how it changes your readers' perception.

      You've got a couple sentences that are like Yoda. Eg, by doing this, and it's unnecessary.

      Similary, the logical volume... You missed a comma. The same occurs in drive impressions, the stack.

      A good article, and a great way to open discussion on SANs and how volumes, drives and RAID presentations can be partitioned or utilized efficiently.

      Can data be retrieved? Yes.

      Will it be worthwhile to do so? Not likely.

      For testing I'd go with the manufacture tools, but to exercise the drive and possibly help it help itself.. I'd run a level 4 scan with Spinrite.
