I still have a couple of external modems, but don't have duplicates of them. May need to check if that old bbs is still working. 😂🤣 I may have a 33.6K US Robotics that I may be able to part with?
MicroCenter is my Stop and Shop for PC hardware, been to 3 of 4 stores in NY. Just went to the one in Brooklyn for an Intel AX200 wireless kit.
Back in the days, CompUSA and Circuit City, rebates galore.
Do the math, 8-10GB a day? On basis of 10GB a day, 1 TB in 100 days, so 3.66 TB per year for argument sake. This should be way below the TBW of the warranty of 3-5 years. In a nutshell, you should be fine. Consider the type of NAND and the warranty.

One thing I learned with rebates, watch that billing address and shipping address. If they are different, they may deny it. I fought Gigabyte on that note one time, they caved and sent the rebate. Glad to hear you are getting your rebate.
Found the Startac charger on Sunday afternoon, but given the age, the plastic/rubber that insulates the wire has cracked or come off a bit. Don't have a picture now.
MicroCenter makes Emtec looks good. I had a 240GB SSD that failed within 3 years warranty; sent an email with copy of receipt from Micro Center. They replied back saying they will sent me a replacement; the replacement drive was 480GB (sealed). Sorry to digress, but Micro Center should have...
