    Areca, Raspberry Pi and XBMC

    Ok, I was waiting to see if I could recreate the problem. I had disabled the auto library updater on the Pi's because I had thought that was a problem. And also had not accessed xbmc on either my desktop pc or server, thinking that for some reason they may have been interfering. The only things...

    Areca, Raspberry Pi and XBMC

    I'm not sure which forum this belongs in, but I'll write the problem, mods feel free to move if required. I have a Win7 server using an Areca 1880i, hp sas expander, norco case, with a mix of 3tb seagate and 3tb wd reds. Upstairs, I have 2 raspberry Pi's on two tvs, a model 1 B, and a model...

    Thanks for the responses guys. I'm going to try to find some decent prices on reds and swap out my seagates one-by-one.

    Need new switch for home use

    I'm looking for a 24 port rackmount switch as well. I do nothing needing virtual LANs or any of that. I just need the 24 ports for a whole bunch of computers, htpc/popcorn hours, PS3 etc. Can anyone recommend something unmanaged and cheaper than the $300+tax that the HP Procurve 1810-24G would...

    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    Is there an easier way? Maybe the "set disc to be failed" or "schedule volume check" or something like that. I feel like this could be an easy fix, I just do not know the way to do it. If at all else, I'll rebuild the array, but I'd rather not risk it.

    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    I had 3 drives fail in a raid6 (or what I thought were failures) I guess they just dropped out as I pulled them and was able to see them in another pc. This happened while I was expanding the array and adding another drive. I ended up finding the option "activate failed drive" so I activated...

    Norco 4224 Fan Swap (v Less Noise)

    Hey [H], Not sure if this belongs in cases or cooling. Mods, feel free to move. I have my Norco 4224 connected behind my tv because I also use it as an HTPC. The problem is, it's loud as hell. I pulled 2 of the fans out from the middle fan wall, so I have 2x80mm stock fans in the middle and...

    New Build Doesn't Boot

    I got an older cpu with the same socket and it was able to boot to BIOS. I flashed the mobo to the most recent firmware and then replaced my current CPU. Works now! Thanks for your help.

    I'm using a PS/2 kb so I doubt it. And even if you leave it, the OS drive doesn't boot. It never gets past the screen I posted.

    New Build Doesn't Boot

    Hey [H], I'm building a pc, having some issues and could use some assistance. I've built a few in the past with relatively few problems, but this one has me stumped. It turns on, I see the motherboard screen, but cannot get to the BIOS and cannot boot. Specs: Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3...

    Socket 775 with audio over HDMI recommendation

    I recently bought an areca 1880i to go in my server. The current board is an evga 730i. For some reason, it wouldn't recognize the areca card in the pcie 2.0 x16. Through some help of [H] members and the evga forums, it was concluded that the board can ONLY use that port for a graphics card. So...
