Some routine maintenence and losing your balance while holding a hard drive and ripping the cord out breaking the retainer for the connectors… 4tb Samsung ssd RIP

  • I mean, maybe. When I moved out of my parents house and didn’t have access to their set up, I paid like $50 for a decent soldering iron with an on/off switch, a stand, and a heat dial. And $5 for some solder. I feel like it will pay for itself in just one use. And once you have one, you’ll realize all things you can fix on our own instead of replacing it or paying someone to fix it.
