I couldn't resist. Wouldn't that be a funny vanity call though? Bravo Zero, Oscar, Bravo, yes hee. I was thinking of one that would be funny just to put up there to see if Russell would spell it out. But that was the only one I could think of that kind of fell. I don't know if Bravo Zero is a prefix in the United States or not, but it should be. Oh man, sometimes you just got to have a little fun with it, right? But yeah, I'm downloading the update to my watch now. I got it to my iPad yesterday and my phone. I searched the desktop OS though, and there wasn't an update for it. I didn't get one anyway. But I don't know. I'm using two hubs connected off my Mac now for USB ports and the hard drive adapter. I wasn't able to pull data off my hard drive with because it must have been the drive itself. But I got that hooked up to a USB hub. So now that sits on my desk permanently, and I've been swapping out drives connected to it. Like one terabyte drives, 500 gig SSDs, I got a couple of those. Now I can use those with the Mac too. I went around pulling them out of older desktop towers that I had, boot drives and stuff like that. And then were SSDs, SATA SSDs. So I can just plug those in and use those as almost like a hot, swappable data storage. All I got to do is click eject, pull the drive off, plug another drive in, and boom. They just sit there exposed on the desk. But once I get them full, I package them in a no-static bag and then put them in the drawer. And they'll hold data probably for years and years and years. As long as the drive is in good shape when you put it away, it should be in good shape many years down the road. So that's what I've been doing. And the SSDs, I'm going to keep using those. I'm not going to use those as permanent storage. I'm just going to use those as fast storage because when you're copying files at 500 megabytes a second, that's a pretty fast transfer speed. And that's what I'm getting off of the USB 3 port on my Mac with a SATA SSD connection. I'm getting 500 megabytes a second, about a gig a second read speed. And it's just these little Kingston flat metal SSDs. But man, they work so much better than a USB stick. You plug a USB stick in.
