Got a new external HDD- setting it up and copying some stuff from my SSD to it for backup and...it's managing a pretty consistent 100-150MB/s? Nothing compared to even my gen 4 SSD but I'm used to even internal HDDs capping out in the 80s, and often struggling to hit 60- quite impressive

thought my speakers had started emitting background noise, and then for a second I thought I had tinnitus but no, after checking out every electronic in the area it turns out... the _power supply_ for my amp is now making a high pitched constant whine.
