Ah - okay that makes much more sense. I was so confused.

if he really put a 60 GB SSD in - how old is that drive? I mean sure it's likely someone is still making drives that small, but I definitely don't see them for sale anywhere.
Hell I don't see anything smaller than 265 GB SSD these days.

He did a Drive swap for one of our terminals - we dont need very much space on the drives - he pulled this from another terminal we had that was running the same OS from a different site that upgraded - I couldn't tell you how old the drive was but it was reused not new

Wondering why the heck anyone would sell a microserver, and then to make it worse it has no server functionality at all.
No out of band management, no capacity for raid (besides Windows) or Linux MD (which I can't use Linux) oh and then a Windows 10 Pro license with it as well...

Yeah, but what makes it even worse and I just thought about it is that 2 Western Digital "Compute" 1TB disks were sold with it as well, 3.5" spinning rust.
So yeah.... I'm done asking why and when it burns to the ground I'll take the beating, fix the issue, charge the customer and move on...

Sometimes that is all you can do, all the while shaking your head in disgust. I realized a while a go that some, if not most, people learn by pain. It could be physical, emotional, financial or all three at one time.

@wrcombs just to add to the confusion … there are hybrid SSD HDD made be Seagate.
IIRC the controller puts frequently accessed stuff on the SSD and moves less accessed items to the HDD.
I may be over simplifying it.
Seagate didn’t jump on the all flash bandwagon at the start as they believed that hybrid devices were the future

That's interesting , I didn't even know that was a thing and we've used Seagate for a lot of our Drives for our PC's.
