    40 and 50 TB drives from Seagate

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    The monitor arm you'd need to rotate a 42" OLED... I don't think even the Ergotron HX series would do it. I tried using the ASUS 42" OLED and it was comically large. My desk just isn't deep enough to get the distance I'd need to read it comfortably, let alone for games.

    Western Digital WD_BLACK SN770 NVMe SSD 2TB - $109.99

    Newegg generally gets newer revisions of hardware (e.g. motherboards), whereas Amazon stocks and ships really old ones.

    Dang, pretty solid deal. Although I misread this as the SN850X and almost had a Vince McMahon moment

    I used the Uplift desk extension briefly but couldn't make two extensions work (one on each end was too long for the space). I wouldn't count on warranty for such a minor issue. It's structurally sound!
