interesting & thank you, it refused to write a staples brand dvd+rw, it 
went thru the motions of formating the disk several times, then didn't 
recognize the disk even if ejected and reinserted, but is working just 
as expected on a virgin Sony brand dvd+rw. Didn't have to do anything 
special other than select the drive. There's two in this machine, a sata 
half height, and a skinny usb portable on a too short cable.  So now I 
have a copy on two different media. memtest86-64-v7.4 went thru one loop 
of my 32Gigs in under 40 minutes w/o any fuss. But after a reboot, the 
lag we've been looking for is back. Took me 5+ minutes to navigate my 
pictures dir to send a friend a couple gimp smunched snaps of my work, 
searching with gimp, I had to wait out the lag for every directory level 
shotwell makes. Boring. Re install #31 coming up when I've finished the 
current 3d printer rebuild. But now that I know how to boot from usb 
I'll put the net-install on a key.  Thank you, all.
