[X] My Assistant

Ok, I need help for my Windows 10 PC.
Just today I noticed that there is weird green checkmark on all of Disk Volume icon.
Pretty sure this is from one of Windows Update.

Any idea what kind of bullshit Microsoft did this time?
Whenever it add/replace something without telling me, usually there are many others stuff that I need to check/changed back.

The brand new 3.5" hard disk won't start after switching on the docking station. Does it have to do with the docking station's bundled power adapter (12V 2A)? 24W isn't adequate for an 8TB hard drive isn't it?

24W should be enough considering a lot of high capacity 16+TB external drives run on 16-24W as well. But I would put my first suspicion on the docking station yes. Might be the control board or something. If you have a PC and some internal SATA then that's the best method to test, but if you have only one laptop then I have no idea.

I returned to my hometown during the Aidilfitri public holiday and hooked the new hard drive to my desktop PC. Nothing is amiss, according CrystalDiskInfo's SMART reading.

I'll bring the docking station home next on the upcoming public holiday in June to see whether the old 4TB drive will run on it or not. It's the cheapest, basic model from Orico brand.

This is a really cool idea—having a space for open-ended problem solving across all kinds of topics is a great way to spark discussion and maybe even learn something unexpected. I like the flexibility of it not being a strict Q&A format. Definitely bookmarking this thread to both ask and answer when I can.

Also, for folks doing a lot of file digging, transfers, or cross-platform work, tools like Commander One can be handy—it's a dual-pane file manager for macOS that supports SFTP, cloud storage like Dropbox and Google Drive, and even works as a sftpクライアントマック. Makes jumping between systems and file types a bit smoother.

I was having trouble managing my files, and then I found Commander One—turns out I can use it as an [apps.apple.com] sftpクライアントマック and it works great!
