Hi, All -- -
Long time, etc. ;-) Been over 5 years of official retirement (actual a bit
less). Still watch the list for nostalgia, but I have nothing useful to
contribute (OK -- all at once: "As usual!")
Question for Ed and the Mac-tolerant: My mid-2014 MacBook is tired and
literally falling apar
Why do you need 4TB of local storage? I'm doing as much as I can to go the
other way now - keeping as much as possible on my Synology NAS so I can
access it from any device. That may be your constraint.
The new MacBook Airs with M1 are amazingly fast, but I don't think large
screens are available
Hi Ken,
The M1 chip is a big change as far as compatibility goes. If you want to be
guaranteed to run Windows software then you need to get an Intel Mac, and soon
the only way to get one will be a used one.
On the M1 chip you currently can use wine or CrossOver to run Windows
applications. But

We have like a half a dozen Synologies in various offices in different sizes.
I could see that. I'm in constant awe of the different use cases people
have for their machines. e.g. I used to keep a *ton* of my code on my
local machine now, but I've moved it all to GitHub or BitBucket and only
have what I'm currently working on stored locally. All of my photos,
music, and vi
Haha -- the real answer is that I just want all these files at my beck and
call. I do have a small personal cloud at one place, but the response is
too slow to be useful, even when using it as a NAS. So -- I just wanna. We
have a couple of homes, and we travel a lot (or we did and -- Bug willing

Thanks, Christof ---
Is that in your new MBP? If so, no reason that it wouldn't fit in older,
like the 2016? I have gotten so insecure about this stuff, not paying much
attention the last few years.

I just can't justify a ton of built-in storage anymore, especially in a
MacBook, as Apple just wants to stick it to you when you want expansive
storage. System76's offerings for Linux based systems (whether you want to
use their version or not) allows for options but then you are no longer in
the
Yikes. I doubt I could remember my CIS handle... wOOdy wins again...

Hey Robert,
How's it going?
I can’t say I did but my vague memory is my handle was more similar to yours.
If enough people add their handles it might force something out of long term
storage... 😉

It's the external one. My internal SSD drive is whatever Apple put in there. I
