Nothing can be done at this moment.

So has to skip the drive.

My VoYo tablet BIOS

 VoYo BIOS is simple but yet help me to build the WTG bootable disk accidentally.

During my last setting , VoYo boot up as in below

I has to type exit to boot into Windows mode

Then I was able to see both the internal HDD Hynix HDG8a4

 and the new NVM HDD ssk

Then I was able to create a bootable Windows 10 version 1909 NMV eDD

in fact both disk appear as

BTW the internal HDD name can only be found under friendly name

Hynix HDG8a4

Mega.NZ cloud drive

Mega is the third altnative cloud drive that I used after I exhaust my Google Drive and One Drive

As you can see I buy lots of smaller HDD

So I am trying to divert lot of of download to free cloud drives and many are fully loaded

I also depending on Desktop or Sync program to link with the cloud drives

as I like to used them as network drives in file explorer

In Mega.nz then I realize I actually end up using the local drive

So in summary. 

I learn to use the website to manage the Mega and other cloud drive

and purposely created a cloud drive directory in the Mega website

and upload lot of bigfiles or temp directories

Next I will look into how to make use of the shared cloud drive among different Mega account to distributes all my files of different nature but yet able to access from one computer

Next, I may want to invest on my own local Network drives

Cortana is not available Singapore English

LoL!

I forgot to read this doc

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/planning/windows-to-go-overview

Windows To Go is removed in Windows 10, version 2004 and later operating systems. The feature does not support feature updates and therefore does not enable you to stay current. It also requires a specific type of USB that is no longer supported by many OEMs.

The better tool is using
https://rufus.ie/

SCSI\WDC_____WD3200BEVT-60A230

1. Download the related installation ISO file from Microsoft and connect the hard drive to your computer.
2. Go to "Control Panel" and find "Windows To Go".
3. Choose the external hard drive and click "Next".
4. Click "Add search location" to search for the ISO file.
5. Select the ISO file to make the external hard drive bootable.

THURSDAY 16 JULY 2020

SINGAPORE — Twenty years after the retirement age was last raised to 62, the Government will increase it to 65 by about 2030, while the re-employment age will go up from the current age of 67 to 70, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced at the National Day Rally on Sunday (Aug 18).

And in a bid to support older workers and boost their retirement savings, Mr Lee also said that the Government will raise their Central Provident Fund (CPF) contribution rates starting from 2021, over the next 10 years or so “depending on economic conditions”.

Read more at https://www.todayonline.com/singapore/govt-raise-retirement-age-65-and-re-employment-age-70-2030-cpf-contribution-rates-older

By the end of that period, the CPF contribution rate for workers aged above 55 to 60 — which currently stands at 26 per cent — will be 37 per cent, the full rate and on a par with younger workers.

my fun last day in doing Hotel SDA

Last night when we are doing our Safe Distance Ambassador.
When we are outside one hotel, my colleague saw a girl was checking in to that hotel,
so we waited outside

When we go into the hotel
we do our routine check and the receptionist was stunned as initially he was caught not wearing a mask ...
and then start to ask about the newly admission case of the new guest
The receptionist started to mutter strange comments
One funny comment is that receptionist mentioned that lady
provide a passport of a guy
But my female colleague kept saying she saw a lady check-in
I was not really paying attention as I dun want to show anything to my female colleague during duty
and also that night is my last night on hotel duty

Anyway, we keep on asking for details of the guests
He want to ask the guest to answer our questions
But I rather ask the receptionist to consult his boss
so he called his boss and was put on speakerphone

------------this is another story last week -----------

We have a very good relationship with this hotel.
We even first time go reviewed his hotel rooms last week.
It is because last week, that night a team of filming companies just booked 3 rooms for a day to film the hotel and surrounding area.
So we went up and saw the unique design of their room
The most impressive is the room got a round bathtub inside the room
The rent of the room is about 150-200 SGD per day
The filming team members left when we check on this hotel

Strictly speaking, this hotel is not allowed to rent the rooms for a staycation (before 13 July) or such activities.
Nevertheless, visitors have left...

Please see the attachment photo inside that hotel rooms

------------this is another story last week -----------


After calling the boss and receptionist go and ask the guest to come out ...

Well, a tall and slim pretty Lady came out of the room.
If it is not for the photo of the passport, I will stare at her face and ....
But she can not speak any proper English.
So She started to call another aunty

The aunty speak simple mandarin and also dun know what happen.
But few data surfaced
This lady stay in Joo Chiat ... and he came to visit her friend
So she is not homeless or house under renovation as a valid to stay in a hotel...
I asked the aunty to translate to the lady...
The investigation took about 20 minutes but once the lady chatted with the aunty.
Within 1 minute, the lady take her phone and rush out of the hotel.
We knew that the original guest was inside the room but we leave the closing of the issue to the hotel.

The boss of the hotel listening partially to our conversation and he decided to come back to the hotel.
We left a word that we will return later after check the other nearby hotel.

14 July is first day that only certain hotel are allowed for staycation example Rafles hotel ....
So the next hotel also take us almost 20 minutes to fill up the complex online forms

So when we finish with that last second hotel, we return to particular hotel again.
This time, the boss of the hotel just came back from Sembawang.
He is a street smart boss and we discussed this issue.

So summary again
There is this Indian Singaporean guest who is a regular customer.
That night he invited that LADY to his room.
The receptionist was actually a housekeeper whom temporary on duty
and check-in for the lady.
The receptionist did not question why she provided a guy document
as both chicken and duck do not communicate well.
The boss after we investigate the whole incidence and claimed he will remedy the hotel booking process.

so we chitchat on other topics.
She really a pretty lady now.
My female colleague asking how the lady can come in immigration with a guy passport.
She deduced that he could not perform the operation in Singapore as it was too expensive.
Hmm... how she know??
By the way, this lady did not operate on the boob or she has not chosen those big boob.
So if she was wearing a bra, I also did not know.
I also did not pay attention on her adam apple as few people are around.

Do the Indian Singaporean guest knew the true sex of the lady??? I asked myself.
Did we do him a favor or spoilt his night ...???
How many men and women are being affected by this ban of staycation for past months and coming months?


Prelude:
--------
(Also in another case in June, we are the first in our group to have caught a group of youngers mostly Indians check in a hotel. The guy who registered claiming on the declaration form he working nearby and would like to stay for a hotel. The receptionist tried to defend the visitors saying one fo the youngers is going to have a birthday and about another six people will be coming over the room. Together they will celebrate inside the room !! we almost failed.
My colleague and I dun want to get involved in that case. We check with the officer and marked that hotel non-compliant NYC. We quickly left the hotel. We presumed the staff will ask those guests to leave the rooms）
