I got a HDD dock from startech.com. It works great and does everything I need. The problem is it has the brightest goddamn blue LED I have ever seen. It is so unnecessarily bright. My eyes hurt looking in the same direction as it. What the fuck should I do? Return it? De solder the stupid ass LED? It works great aside from this one issue.
Edit: I opened the thing and drew with sharpie on the LED. It’s bearable to look at now.
No, one of my mesh WiFi routers is in my room and too bright at night, I just put tape on it. Problem solved.
Every modern router that I’ve worked with has an option to turn the lights off at night. Does the control panel of your router have that too?
