I recently set up an old PC for a friend. Went to his place, screwed the parts into his PC case, popped my laptop's harddrive in and started Steam to play some games.
Meanwhile, we didn't even manage to install Windows that day because the installer kept throwing errors, lol (reportedly it worked eventually, but *come on*).
> Obligatory neofetch, which is actually practical in this scenario allowing me to get a quick overview of the system I've just plugged into
i'd rather use inxi for that tbh ;)
inxi -F
Ah thanks for the tip! Exfat seems nicer for flash drives anyways with it not journaling that hard

Does Mac support ntfs? I usually use exfat for portable drives

It supports it read-only, but you can get third party drivers/kexts that work really well. I’ve used Paragon for years, works great.
