Since it’s getting warmer now I’ll probably move my cpu down 4.2GHz. The highest percentage oc I had 24/7 was a q6600 at 3.6GHz at 1.45v, base was 2.4GHz at 1.2v

I have an old WD Green with 500GB. Wouldn’t use it anymore, though…should be 10yo now.
The 4x 500GB Seagate drives we had are all dead.

At some point I’ll get larger drives but I’m cheap and I don’t need to yet.

Meanwhile I have one system with a 800GB PCIE NVME drive; and a 1tb+2tb hard drives, another with a 2tb+4tb HDDs, and my soon to be main build which has a 4tb hard drive. Though that will be changing around a bit with above hardware.
And also a random 4tb drive just sitting in a box atm. Which I might use?
Oh also msata and a random m.2 SSDs I still need to figure out what to do with lol

I mean it didnt work… On the systems they tried. That doesn’t mean its broken though xD
Also sometimes they are just stupid in general so there’s also that.
Oh also I do have a different place that I get stuff from I need to check on again… Pick up a bunch of old crap to recycle directly because yeah. Will only be like $2-10 a lb for it depends on the items but still there should be enough there by now to warrant a trip to the recycling place 3 hours away possibly. Will see.

If they pay per lb its nice otherwise meh?
Some recycling centers even let you buy some of the stuff they have like keyboards or crts or whatever basically. Just depends on the recycler.

Lol. Oh well. But hey if you can get mechanical keyboards … Why not?
Or some other useful older stuff. Not that there is much older hardware other than keyboards that’s useful but still
