My employer lets us keep our old work laptops when we upgrade so basically every two to three years I get a new home server. I remove the battery just to be safe
What does removing the battery do?
It's probably to avoid it being left charged all the time and potentially swelling into a 'spicy pillow'
First time I've heard that term....using it from now on
