    Syria .. The new era

    The lack of resistance from a ruling party controlling a country for that long is shocking. My conspiracy theory is Russia has agreed to withdraw from Syria in exchange for Western powers to let them control much of the land in Ukraine and end the war next year. So Israel will get most of...

    Question How to prove a NVMe drive is defective for warranty service?

    I just want to provide an update here: I moved the NVMe SSD to another M.2. slot on the motherboard and for the last 3 ~ 4 days I haven't experienced any crash at all. (It's used to crash within 5 minutes from a cold boot every time) So it looks like I have a defective M.2. slot on...

    Question How to prove a NVMe drive is defective for warranty service?

    Thanks for the feedback. If you think it's common for M.2 slot on the motherboard to develop error over time, I will try to move the NVMe drive to another M.2 slot on my motherboard (Gigabyte H370M D3H) to give that a try.

    Question How to prove a NVMe drive is defective for warranty service?

    I have a ~3 year old Western Digital Black NVMe M.2 disk started showing signs of failure. It comes with 5 year manufacture warranty but I am not sure how to prove the issue to the manufacturer in order to claim the warranty services. Here is what's happening: this NVME drive is my Windows...

    Question How reliable is the initial version of a new router's firmware?

    I was talking about Asus RT-AX82U, it's very new and only has the original firmware. I am picking it over the netgear router (very similar hardware spec) because of AIMesh feature and possible third party Merlin firmware down the road. My main concern is its hardware form factor as Asus has...

    Question How reliable is the initial version of a new router's firmware?

    I am about to upgrade to a new AX5400 router just released by Asus (I have 4 devices supports wifi 6 at home) This is a brand new router design with just the original firmware. What are my risks? Does major brand do enough testing on their products before release or they rely on early...

    The 2014 Annual Anandtech Tax Time Thread!

    Thanks for doing this every year! I made a mistake buying my IRA fund for Year 2014 this month. Instead of buying the fund in my Vanguard ROTH IRA account, I purchased the same fund ($5,500) in my Vanguard Rollover IRA instead. I noticed this issue the next day and called Vanguard to fix it...

    10th Annual Tax Thread - 2012

    Thanks for the clarification, looks like it will be better to withhold more state tax in my paycheck. Here is how I understand this: if I own the state any amount ($400 in my case) for 2012 tax return, there is no way I can get any federal deduction from that amount in 2012 or 2013...

    10th Annual Tax Thread - 2012

    I have a question regarding Federal itemized deductions on State Taxes: I understand if you get a refund from state the previous year, you may need to pay income tax on that the next year (since you have claimed the credit previous year) I am wondering what will happen if I own some state...

    Asrock Z77 Extreme 4 Memory issue

    Just a follow up: I reseated the CPU durng the weekend. (As far as I can tell there is no bent PINs) Now all 4 DIMM slots are working again and nothing unusual has happened after running the PC for 8+ hours . I can't explain why reseating the CPU fixed my problem: that ram slot...

    Asrock Z77 Extreme 4 Memory issue

    I have done a fair amount of research before posting this: I am getting error code 55 (memory not found) but it is somewhat different from the other 'bent CPU pins' cases: In nearly all the 'bent pins' cases I have found on the internet: both A1 & A2 will not be working. Only A2 is not...

    7th Annual Anandtech Tax Time Thread

    I have a question about buying Roth IRA after filing the tax. I filed my tax in Feb in order to get tax fund earlier. My wife just got a job offer and I started thinking about buying some Roth IRA for tax year 2009 with our emergency funds before Apr 15 deadline. I did my taxes with...

    What are the legal options when a company overpays an employee by 33% for 1 yr?

    It's all depends on what the company wants to do. Legally they can if they are willing to spend efforts. I was overpaid by 5 days in my final paycheck when I left my last job. (They paid me 2 full weeks instead of 1 week I really worked) I informed them (because I thought they forgot to...

    Moving out guiltiness

    Are you the only child in the family? The most important question you need to ask yourself is: How are you getting along with your parents? (Are you arguing with your parents all the time? Do they still trying to control your life & your choices? ) Parents are the closest thing you...

    What is the most probable motivation for the states that reject gay marriage?

    I never said we should deny them any rights because of genetically inferior. (nor it's right to use it as a reason to against gay marriage) Since OP is asking why most people reject gay marriage, I am just trying to say that most people naturally feels that a man need to be with a...
