Welcome to 2017! 2016 was a great year filed with many great adventures.
Within the last year I have invested in a gaming/video editing computer. I mainly used to be a console gamer via the Xbox systems but have started trying more PC games as well. Below is my current build.

I have my operating system and a few main programs and games on the Samsung solid state harddrive, while the rest of the data and games on the Western Digital Black harddrive. For any pictures, music and main documents I have stored on a separate computer, which is used a a home media server that is linked up with the rest of my network. A future post will be made about my network. This is the best computer but it gets the job done.
