ESET recommends switching to Windows 11 as quickly as possible. Alternatively, a Linux distribution can also be a good option, especially for older hardware.

66.12% of Windows PCs are still on Windows 10 in Germany, 62.73% worldwide.

I’ve asked my dad to snap a picture if he doesn’t mind :) but it’s a bit of a pain to get to

I didn’t have anything at the house to split off the sata power and I was ok getting rid of my spare stuff so it worked out better anyway
