Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Really? Pull a drive instead of plugging in the charger?
The techies on lemmy forget that regular people exist.
techie here. He's something other.
Something which may have outlasted previous technologies.. I.. I wouldn't ask for elaboration and nod.

If you are just checking one or two devices, charger is the way to go. Now if you need to check like a dozen for some reason, pulling the drives might be easier.
Depends how bad a state the rest of the machine is in, I've tried booting some really knackered machines and the time I spent waiting would probably have been enough to remove the drive!
Make one drive mount read only in a guaranteed working and current system instead of powering on hundreds of old components along with long dead software, batteries, authentication long forgotten... Not to mention where that supposed charger has gone and will it work or die after years of being abandoned.
Absolutely.
