Yes. Stripe is a good company to use for accepting payments and is integrated well into websites. I have used them quite a bit and have had no problems. Their fees are comparable to other Credit Card processors. Let me know if you have any other questions about it.

Samsung drives are great as well. SSDs are going to be faster and more reliable than an HDD (spinning drive) as they don’t have moving parts to fail, but are also quite a bit more expensive.

I don’t think any software will fix it, as it sounds like a hardware failure. https://www.300dollardatarecovery.com/ does appear to be good, but I don’t think it will work in this situation

According to my research and knowledge of dealing with HDD, the beeping is usually a stuck head, which is a mechanical issue. This can happen if the drive is reading or writing when it loses power. This would take mechanical repair by someone who knows what they are doing with hard drives.

It is not coming up as a secure website, thus the HTTPS does not work. The “s” is for secure. It is saying that the domain was recently registered at namecheap.com, as the screenshot from @frazer-family shows. Also the screenshot from @buddingphotogra…Read more

Also, the sunset is over Wolf lake at the NWCC from the south land bridge. it was taken through a truck windshield with an ipod touch camera. I was on a mission so i stopped for a few seconds and snapped a couple of photos.
