hi, batmeat. nice to hear from another exotic-sounding food!
Yeah, I didn't think eyeballing the SSD would help. I thought maybe there was a program or software we can run?
I'm considering buying a new SSD from a private seller (Craigslist). It's sealed in the original blister pack sorta package. But it may have had falls or bumps. Is there some way to check the physical health of the SSD?

If I understand you correctly, you're saying that the number of routers necessary is one less than the number of users. If you have 5 users, you'd need 4 routers. If there's 10 users, you'd need 9 routers. Yikes! I wanted to save money. I thought...
I've just bought another router, one that can run OpenWRT or Lede. Hope it's easy to set-up and easy to use and has clear graphs for the other people sharing the internet.

escrow4, for the purpose of my post, please assume that I'll be using the CPU I listed. For the purpose of my post, please don't try to sway me from this CPU. The purpose of my post was clear, I thought, in the title: to help me decide on a board that matches the parts that I have/will have.
nerp, you recommended the board you have, the Asus h170 Pro Gaming, because it's "an ATX board with all the ports and features any modern system needs." I'm don't necessarily want a board with all the ports and features _any modern system_ needs.
I'm looking for a board with the ports and...
I have this crazy idea which I call anti-futureproofing. I wonder what you think of it....
http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/mother...a8&page=1&qq=1 says the cheapest compatible mobo for my CPU, an Intel Core i3-6100, is $41.38, the Gigabyte GA-H110M-A.
On the other hand, the cheapest Z170...
