SpaceMonger

The SpaceMonger tool is an excellent way to figure out where all of your hard drive space has gone.  I believe it was Brent who showed it to me a while back.  I like the last free version that is still available.

Kenwood DP-R4450 brought back to life

I brought back to life my grandfather’s circa 1993 Kenwood DP-R4450 five disk CD changer this evening.  The disk tray would not open when my grandfather gave it to me.  After much disassembly, I found that the drive motor has a small belt.  That belt had stretched out over time.  I found a suitable O-ring at a local auto parts store that fit the bill.  It is now happily playing an Apocalyptica CD. 🙂
