Too many issues

I know I haven’t been blogging that much :/ I just been so bust with quite a few things. First thing is I added another HD to my NAS, which is normally easy, but I ran out of ports on the MB for SATA, so now I have either get another motherboard, which is not the best solution, or just get a add-on card. I plan to get the add-on card, however I am trying to figure out if I should go with a software solution, or a hardware.

Secondly, my small dell laptop I had was starting to over heat on me. It was clean as a whistle, however it was just hitting around 70C on both cores. Granted it was a small laptop, but still – that isn’t a good temp. So I called Dell and they sent someone to fix the laptop. So the tech comes over for the repair and after the install I noticed both cores are doing a bit better, however now I notice that the wireless switch is stuck. To make a long story short, the wireless switch was broken by the tech who put in a new motherboard. So they sent another motherboard, but it was DOA, so they decided to send out another system! It was upgraded in a few ways – processor, memory, and SSD drive, however I was having some wireless issues. So I proceed to open up the back wireless cover to take a look. This is what I saw:

I then had no choice but to send back the laptop to the Dell depot to get repaired. Around a week later the laptop came back, but now it has a hairline scratch on the back LCD cover. So then I call and get that part from Dell and I repair it on my own.

The last thing that happened was the fact I traded in my modded high HP car for a more economy car. Granted I will miss it, but getting around 28 MPG+ on the highway is awesome instead of 19 or so 🙂

So hopefully that is it for a while 🙂
