So I have a job that will be getting me out of the US. For most things I’m not to worried, except for my computer. What would be the best way to securely move it and also not potentially worry about damaging it?
It’ll be a given that I have an encrypted off-site (cloud) back up, but I’m torn about removing the drives to hand carry and then shipping the chassis. My only worry about that would be customs stopping me because of carrying hard drives… more specifically 3x M.2, which I’m not as worried about and 4x 2.5” SSDs
Thoughts?
Definitely take the GPU out and heatsink off the CPU, when it gets banged around both of those things because of their mass can fuck up your motherboard. I moved a lot for about a decade of my lifr and had multiple desktops get fucked up.
