3 months agoDepends on how you define stealing.
Well you should probably use the actual definition. Copying information is never stealing. Whether or not piracy is ethical is a debate you can engage in if you want, but either way, it’s still not theft. Words have meanings.
You are quite likely to regret going down this route. Should do what you have to to get the drives properly connected.
