    Anyone have ideas where to buy NAS Drives?

    I'll give the GoHardDrive a shot, I'd prefer manufacture warranty but it doesn't look like I can get that, so I'll take a 5 year dealer warranty.

    Anyone have ideas where to buy NAS Drives?

    It was one of those server refurb sites that Level1Techs shilled. It was decent deal and one drive failure out of 20 isn't bad. I just wanted to buy new drives to expand my array and am amazed that no one seems to have new drives in stock.

    Anyone have ideas where to buy NAS Drives?

    I've become the family's data center and I'm looking to expand/upgrade the spinning rust. I've been hunting around for SATA NAS/Enterprise storage and most places are only allowing you to buy 1 drive at a time for new drives. Does anyone know a site that is selling lots of 8 or more 20TB+...

    Is my Power Supply insufficient for a 7900XTX?

    So, update/conclusion. I replaced the internal power cables with some of the spare sleeved ones I got for my other system and it's now working. So, maybe a bad cable, maybe I didn't fully click them all in, although I tested them a number of times. It's been kind of rough week, so it took me a...

    Is my Power Supply insufficient for a 7900XTX?

    I don't remember how old this power supply is. It's bounced through several computers over the years and had one warranty replacement many years ago. I actually thought it was an 850W, until I loaded up the Corsair tool and it came up as 750, which is made me wonder if this CPU+GPU was pushing...

    Is my Power Supply insufficient for a 7900XTX?

    That is a possibility, I could also grab another power supply out my plastic tubs of spare parts and connect it to the card. Once the delivery guy shows up with new braided cables for the other system, I will make a decision on how lazy or ambitious I want to be.

    Is my Power Supply insufficient for a 7900XTX?

    I'll try reinstalling it later today, if that doesn't work a new RM1000 or reconditioned HX1000 isn't that expensive. I'll probably order it with a new OLED monitor as well... might as well give it a total refresh.

    Is my Power Supply insufficient for a 7900XTX?

    I tried DisplayPort and HDMI, but I will order a new cable, just to see if that helps because I do remember having an issue with the HDMI cable on my other machine.

    Is my Power Supply insufficient for a 7900XTX?

    The card was just moved from a working system, so I would be surprised if it was the card as well. The system it was moved from has a HX1000i power supply. I don't really want to take the 4090 out to test if the card still works on the old system. The only other thing I can think of is a bad...

    Is my Power Supply insufficient for a 7900XTX?

    Upgraded one computer with a RTX4090, so I moved the 7900XTX to another system that had a 2080 and now it won't load the screen (doesn't even show the BIOS screen). The second computer has a Corsair HX750i power supply and a R9 5950, which I figure should have enough power, but I after...

    Another day, Another Rumor of Valve being Acquired

    I was curious what estimates were for Valve's value and I feel dumber having read those reports. The Bloomberg report, which is the origin of the $6.9B valuation literally makes no sense. They are saying Valve is worth roughly 2/3rds it's average annual revenue. Once Bloomberg published that...

    Police discovered a secret crypto-mining operation beneath a US high school

    Honestly, if he just put a rack of ASIC rigs in a closet with a "high voltage do not touch", no one would have asked any questions. There are probably dozens or more such setups sitting in plain sight all over the place, that people have no idea what they are and don't dare touch.

    Fusion reactor actually put out more energy than it consumed for the first time ever

    My Dad worked on NOVA and NIF, designing the targeting adjustment system. To be honest I kind of wrote off NIF, as much of the team had moved towards trying to find commercial application for the research and seemed to be abandoning the original core research.

    I Bought an RTX 3060 Ti Today!

    I decided it wasn't worth bothering trying to get a card until next year, I'm just glad I didn't buy the 2080Ti. That aside, back in the day, Hybrid Theory was one of those CDs I'd play on my Alpine/MB Quart car stereo so much I had to burn multiple CD copies because the CDs had a limited play...

    After Ampere Launch Survey

    I'm going to wait on the 3090 numbers. With the ultrawide 49" (5120X1440), I would like to be able to drive the titles I've been playing the most AC Odyssey (probably Valhalla soon) and other similar open world titles closer to 100fps. If the 3090 has the headroom to somewhat justify the price...
