  • Well actually you got confused as I am not the guy who did say “disk drives”, that’s somebody else.

    In any case I understood you as talking about the non BluRay indicating they are common in builds.

    I mentioned BluRays because that’s the only one that nowadays could make sense to have and could be common to add to a build, but not even that is being used commonly due to being expensive and basically only used by movies and those are usually played elsewhere.

    I honestly don’t think most people would bother building a new PC with a normal disk drive, they are completely useless. New games/software/video/music are digital or use BluRays, except music I guess. And any other uses has been replaced with external USB drives or other mediums as those are better in many ways. So unless you have some specific need it’s worthless and if you have a need a external USB disk drive is more practical.












  • Your phone but not your home wifi? But it detects it?

    I remember long time ago HP put wifi cards in some.laptops that had two antennas and only connect one. That worked fine on windows with the HP provided wifi drivers but Linux drivers were using the disconnected one by mistake which cause it to only detect wifi spots very near to it. You had to somehow change it so the driver used the other antenna.

    Until I found out what it was it gave a lot of headaches… It also caused issue with Bluetooth as the wifi worked terrible when using the Bluetooth or vice versa… That part I didn’t solve it.
