People and occupation

The village is home to people of Tangkhul Naga tribe. Majority of the inhabitants are Christians and Nambisha and Bungpa hold the record of appointing women pastors in the 1940s;[3] a rare historical privilege in a predominantly patriarchal society. Agriculture is the primary occupation of the inhabitants. Being a remote area, the village is often in the news for the poor transport system due to bad road condition and the inhabitants suffer most during the rainy season because of frequent landslides.[4] Nambisha is close to the porous Indo-Myanmar international border and the village is often used as transit route by militants for which there are frequent encounters between the Indian arm force and militant groups.[5][6]

gollark: Other than that, it's basically just as simple as plugging in two cables (SATA power, SATA data).
gollark: SSDs are mostly 2.5", HDDs mostly 3.5", so you would need to find the right mounting in your case.
