Bought an external HD, I know how slow HD's are, but it's been a long ass time since I used anything except NVME. I was flabbergasted when took 4.5 hours to copy 500 gigs lol. And apparently, the computer I built last Xmas has a legacy USB 2 port, because the 1st one I plugged it in said 15 hours.
A plus, it's 5TB and doesn't need a power cord. Which is awesome because I have no free plugs near my computer, and the proprietary external HD USB 3 cable is only about 6 inches long. These damn micro short USB cables with that weird ass connector are a huge 1stworldproblem.
