500GB Seagate Expansion Portable Drive

xtrifor — Thu, 03 Mar 2016 08:52:48 +0800

Used it for 4 years. Backup photos and videos only.

CHKDSK: Stage 1 (5%) cleared then the rest "unreadable".

Direct connect USB to laptop: A few mins take to fully detected on My Computer but when clicked ask to "format" if want to use it.

No sound clicking, knocking, scratching when powering up the ext hdd

The weird part is, when I connect to my LG TV, it can detected, show, it can play all photos and videos like no problem.

What happened to this ext hdd actually?

I am using iPhone and restrict the setting not using cellular data because mostly on wifi mode.

So how come when I off cellular data and wifi 24/7 online, my phone still looking for cellular data to connect outside world?

Here is my usage on cellular data after received these sms from Maxis.

Last night I just bought LG LED LCD TV... Long story short, tested and I able to play all AVI, MP4, MKV movies on my external HDD. The problem is the MKV built-in subtitle. Movies with SRT subtitle no problem. But MKV with built-in subtitle not shown. Is it not supported?

PS: Many of my MKV movies are anime, so it's Japanese and I need English subtitle...

HP Color LaserJet 2550n

xtrifor — Wed, 19 May 2010 12:08:03 +0800

I recently bought new cartridges for my HP Color LaserJet 2550n, there's 4 color (Black, Magenta, Yellow, Blue). After replace all the cartridges, so I test it out by printing "Test Print" page.

And the result:

Yes, as you can see it's PERFECT!

----

After that (2, 3 days) I only used it for printing out my document works and anything related. (Black and white printing only). Today, I try to print photo, 1st photo I can print out perfectly and the result color 100% ok... But suddenly after 4 or 5 photos printed... 6th one only yellow color printed. What happened to other color?

See picture:

and try "Test Print" it...

Color not perfect.

---

Photo print in "Grayscale" no problem...

See picture:

PS: What actually happened to my printer? Thanks...
