Me reaching for that deluxe quarter pounder with cheese

With mice, the screws are always hidden by the glide pads on the bottom. It looks like an ASUS WT200 but after a quick look I can't find any for sale.

Ok if you can't get replacement guts, it might be something easy you can fix. Maybe some paint got on the laser or the lens. Flip it over and have a close look at the little hole. Some isopropyl and a q-tip might get it working again.

Hey, I think your mouse looks pretty cool. I love the speckled egg shell look. It looks kind of like a Robin's Egg. I have some advice for you, if you're interested. If you're going to spray paint something like this, you can disassemble it first with a screwdriver. Take it apart and spray the case only. Same thing for keyboards, PCs, and anything else you can take apart fairly easily. Second, when you're spraying it, suspend it from a string or two, or support it by a single stick from below. Don't touch it until it's dry.

As for your current situation, buy a new identical mouse and transfer the working guts from the new one to your customized one.

ARE WE GREAT AGAIN YET?

How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren't real

 

And thus began the second dark age. In the 21st century, the election of Donald Trump triggered a chain of events that ceased scientific progress globally. Environmental stewardship gave way to rampant consumption and dirty industry. Women once again became subjugated to property and lost all human rights. Logic and reason was forgotten and replaced with conspiracy theories and superstition. Over the next few centuries tribalism and the decay of modern society played out against the backdrop of now unstoppable climate change, which was largely attributed to superstitious causes by small groups of devolved humans living in filth amongst the ruins of a once great civilization.

 
 

I just picked up some 16TB WD Red Pros for $219, and they're normally $289. Had to share with my fellow hoarders.

 

I have between 20-30 TB of data I want to keep a copy of in a firesafe. I do not want to use an online storage solution, I want to maintain my personal data at my home.

My current plan is to get (2) Mediasonic HFR2-SU3S2 PRORAID enclosures and (8) WD Red Pro NAS 16TB drives to fill them. The first would contain a full backup and be placed in the safe. The second would be attached to my machine and receive nightly backups. Periodically, I would rotate the enclosures, taking the one from the safe and swap it with the one connected to my machine.

Are there any problems with my plan that I am not thinking of? Are there better solutions?

Is anyone else keeping a rotating data backup in a safe? How is it working out for you?
