omgwtf!

Installing my fabulously huge new hard drive last night was so simple that I’m sitting here convinced something atrocious will be happening to it at any moment. I should be backing up the other stuff on the drive just in case, but I’m too busy listening to Filter. I wish to hell I had better volume on these headphones, but I have to build an amp for them before I can go up to the brain-rattling level I want. The new soundcard I got is a pretty good one, but it doesnt do headphones very well. I just have to build the headphone amp I found a recipe for on the Internets. Then it’ll be cool.

So yeah, I thought I was going to have to throw down in a to-the-death, steel cage arm wrestling match with the OS in order to force it to recognize the size of this drive, but no such thing. I used the software Seagate included on a CD with the drive, called DiscWizard, and I was done in less than 10 minutes. It was very nearly a one click operation. To be precise, and if I recall correctly, it was a two click, slide the thingie to 100%, one more click and youre done operation. I almost did it again just because it was so fast I couldn’t believe it. Well done, Seagate!

And now, to download the Filter collection…
