Just a heads up for anyone looking for a backpack that comfortably fits the FW16, especially with the GPU installed. I received my FW16 last week, have spent the week trying to find a backpack that fits. I had a few that came close, but all were either uncomfortably tight on the GPU or far too tight on the edges (i.e. not likely to offer much drop protection). I eventually landed on the STM Dux 30L. It is designed for up to a 17" laptop, which seems to work well for the FW16's deep GPU. Hopefully if someone else is in the same boat I've just saved them some research. It is an expensive backpack however. That part still makes me cry.
Tried a few options, really wanted a soft case. Can't speak highly enough for the think tank case, it fits just right and can accommodate the ethernet module too.
Loving the continuous transparency from Framework. Bought one for myself, when my father needed a new laptop got him onto the framework bandwagon. Now my wife has informed me to start budgeting - she wants one next year. Their behaviour to date is why I'm willing to get behind them & their products.
How performant does it need to be? What's the nature of the read/write behaviour? If it fits the profile of "fast USB drive" then you could potentially get away with 2 of these (https://frame.work/au/en/products/storage-expansion-card?v=FRACCFBZ02) configured in software raid and boot your OS off the internal nvme. That said, I feel you'd get more mileage with a second hand (and cheap!) micro PC for your paperless instance and save the framework as a laptop
Couldn't be any happier. Now to put it through its paces over the coming days.

Go for the pain tier (even though it's FOSS) 100% worth it.
Looks straight up amazing. Love it

Great recommendation on AnonAddy. I know what I'll be seeing up tonight.
Have one. My email address is firsname@firstnamesurname.com. I work in tech so it really seems to generate the right impression on my resume.
When I was 15, my dad purchased me a plaster saw (still have it) and handed me his drill.
Then told me to make it look neat, but "don't fuck up because your mother will kill us both".
I ran about 4 network points through the house.
Nothing like fear to produce a 100% perfect finish 😉
