I put the laptop at around $1500 at the lower end. You can probably post it for a bit more. Does it have ProSupport Plus? Even better.
I put the monitors for around $200.

Been watching used and new laptops for a long while now and Imo 1500 for laptop high end.
1100-1200 low end. Even with those upgrades.
If you can get 1500 that's great. Anything more you're getting into more newer better performing one's.
Agree on rest.

What do you guys do to erase the hard drives before selling it so people can't go back and retrieve old data?

Hackers will find a way if they really wanted to. Just keep it or physically destroy it, but unless you are Gal Gadot recording homemade porn or banking profiles on it I wouldn't worry too much. IMO just format it.
Personally when I upgraded to SSD, I just kept my old hard drive to hold backups (I have 3 iPhone backups in there that took a huge chunk of memory) and random old Chinese movies that you can't find on streaming sites anymore.

Question
I've got an enterprise ssd installed into a workstation motherboard (re: bitcoin thread)
The drive is plugged into a m.2 to u.2 adapter, windows isn't detecting it, I've no clue as to why... Ideas? Is there like a bios setting I need to adjust?

Does it show up in the Disk Management snap-in or in the BIOS?

If it is an HDD, I'd use this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sys...nloads/sdelete
and I'd run anywhere between 1 - 35 passes to wipe the drive, depending on how concerned I'd be about the data on the drive. (Actually, I won't. If I'm going to do anything more than 3 passes, I'm just gonna not bother selling.)
If it is an SSD, I haven't found a reliable enough program to wipe it yet, although Intel and Samsung drives are supposed to have 1st party tools that can do this for their own drives.

For the cost of a drive I just keep them. Maybe I'm just paranoid lol.

Going to try a different computer, and cable next
But omg it's always something when I put a computer together!

Also do a count of your PCI-E lanes. Could be that, who knows.

Tried a different enterprise drive (same model) and tried both drives on my other WS neither of them work
The other WS has SAS ports on the board, so I didn't need an adapter, so I'm thinking it's either the drives or my cables  | |

I found this in the bios under Advanced
"generic nvme pcie ssd configuration data" and it gives the details of the u.2 drive, it can't detect its capacity, or seem to offer anything more than the model # of the drive
But I don't know what to do with that information

Apparently the 3080ti is supposed to have a hidden hash rate cap on it as well so it won't be as efficient for miners.
