It's fine if you have another computer to create your installation USB drive. My Z170 came with a DVD that contained the utility I needed to modify my W7.iso (a relatively simple process).

>>60011962
I still use discs since I'm not a cuck

>>60012444
If you're using CDs for anything other than ripping lossless music, you're seriously stupid.

Good goy, pay those royalties to Sony for DVDs and Blu Rays.

>>60011962
i use discs on an almost daily basis. especially in instances when someone wants to give me to stock to work on but doesn't want me in their cloud or to email me things.

discs are cheaper than flash drives to give out and they shred.

>>60012432
My Z170 came with the same but the tool kept failing for some reason, so I said fuck it and did it oldschool

Oh shit. Last one on eBay for a reasonable price.

I'm not buying it but if someone else likes the novelty, think fast.

>>60011962
hot swap disk bays
tape backup
drawers
fan controllers
optical media readers anyway for archival purposes, they cost nothing anyway

>>60012465
I hope you don't buy anything digitally since that is by far worse than royalties for DVDs and Blu Rays.
I use mine mostly for external stuff that I want several backups of and CDs to play in players and in the car.

>>60012461
They're good for making backups. At least of smaller stuff - which the important stuff usually is. (password manager database, code, anything that isn't media basically)

and the nice thing about discs is that they're an easy way to get off-site. Burn (encrypted) disc, give it to someone you know, ask them to keep it somewhere.

>>60012944
Disc rot is a thing, you know. They are not suitable as a long-term backup solution.

>>60012969
use dvdisaster.

>not 4 meters

lmao i bet it's like a microwave in your rig

>>60011962
>how are you utilizing that drive bay?
Strategic dust reserve.

>>60012584
Used to have a cigarette lighter that when it was done it would shoot out of the holder and roll onto the floor of the car.

>>60012986

this is really cool cheaper than those archive disks

>>60012236

I like movies and I'm a qualityfag so I still buy loads of Blu-rays.

>>60013165
imagine if it shot into your pants and burned your ballsack then as you grab for it your hand meets the hot end and in a panic you flick it into the back where it starts to smoke, in the time it takes you to figure out it fell into the bag at the back of your chair and in pain try to dig it out the foam is set alight and the fire escalates rapidly to the point of being completely uncontrollable and all you can do is watch your car burn while you phone the fire brigade

I got one of them hdd adapters for my thinkpad, haven't bothered doing anything with my desktop.

>>60011962
I salvaged a bunch of 500gb 2.5" HDDs, and I was thinking of getting one of those 6 bay raid bays.
