    New File Server Build - Question on JBOD Enclosures / Support

    Hi all -- Starting to plan my next file server build, and I want to do something a bit more elaborate than my current setup (which is basically a mid-tower case with 3 of the 3 5.25" to 5-3.5" bay converters, giving me a total of 15 drives). For the moment, I'm thinking of having a 4U...

    SSD or HDD in your main rig? POLL

    Ran 4 x 256GB Samsung 840 Pros in RAID-0 in my main rig for a bit. Two 2TB WDs in RAID-1 for local storage, then Crashplan for backups of everything. It was blazingly fast, and thankfully never had an issue with stability. Without having a full backup I probably wouldn't have run those 4...

    "Ooops" moment broke SATA data connector off SSD - Fixable?

    I hadn't, but the 7-pin data-only "option 2" looks like it may be the most compact option available. I'm ordering a couple of those to try, along with some hot glue to hopefully hold things in place. Thanks!

    "Ooops" moment broke SATA data connector off SSD - Fixable?

    Good points. Nenu - to be honest, I hadn't through about soldering directly to a SATA cable. This seems like the route I may go - and I'll likely wrap the cable & secure it to the drive somehow. The four wires are in tact and exposed on both drives. Wizzard - I should have specified in my...

    "Ooops" moment broke SATA data connector off SSD - Fixable?

    Long story short, we had a server in a rack that was built a year+ back, and it didn't have enough room to put the SSDs for boot & cache in the hot-swap bays, so they were velcro'd to the top of the case (inside). It worked great, until it was time to decom the server and we forgot about the...

    Nobody? Bummer... Any thoughts on how to proceed in general, beyond the "don't F!@& it up" mantra?

    Debezel Doublesight Monitors

    I've been following this forum (and in particular the monitor porn thread) for years now, and have always liked the look of the multi-monitor setups with debezeled monitors. My current setup consists of a bunch of DoubleSight monitors, both the DS-305W and DS-307W models. For those of you...

    Raspberry Pi HTPC question

    Based on posts in this thread, a couple additional pieces of info: If you plan to use Plex, the Roku is the best non-PC solution I've seen. I love the build-it-yourself feeling of the Pi, but some channels (CBS, NBC, etc. etc.) do not work with RasPlex on the Pi, and the devs have not...

    i7 2600 (Non-K)

    Came here to say that the non-K series doesn't get nearly the amount of love that it should. These processors perform great, and have the remote management and added virtualization features that have been stripped from the K's. The only downside is the lack of an unlocked multiplier, which...
