I recently moved from the UK to the USA and managed to take all of my PC components (minus the PSU and case) with me in my suitcase. They have been in the cupboard in jiffy bags (because I couldn’t find antistatic bags!) since I got here, and I recently managed to get ahold of a new case and...

I've got my home server running Windows Server 2016, and have the built in Windows Server Backup set for a daily backup from one drive to another, pretty basic stuff. Both drives are formatted in ReFS, which should use archive flags so only files that are changed get backed up. But this is not...
