I have 2 of these, one is hooked up with an HDMI cable into the HDMI port of my graphics card and the other uses a HDMI to DVI cable into graphics cards DVI port. The colors seem to be a bit different between the 2. I'm using the same settings and ICC profile. Any way to align them color-wise?

So stick with pre-built then?

So I posted this on another site but got little to no response so lemme post here, I KNOW I'll get better feedback here. My QNAP TS-410 NAS was struck by lightning about a week ago (not really sure whether it's just the power brick that's dead or the NAS itself but that's another story)...

Ok so I had my PC running with Windows 7 for a while now and it just runs like a champ. I want to get into iOS development but don't wanna shell out for a Mac JUST to develop to I set up a hackintosh. But my question involves an "issue" I have with the dual boot. So basically, I have Windows 7...

Oooops, seems hackintosh threads aren't allowed here. Sorry about that.

So I wanna start dabbling in Apple app development but don't have a Mac and I don't wanna shell out for a new one right now so I'm looking to install OSX on my PC. Basically I've seen some guides on building a hackintosh but they seem to be hardware specific. Now my questions, firstly...

Ok, for future reference, what is the answer? (I'm assuming its not one of these pre-built NAS boxes like Synology or QNAP)

Quick update, no change using CAT5e instead of CAT5. Next ill try CAT6...

Ok well I definitely have 5 and 5e, haven't checked any of the other cables in my house yet. Will try a file copy with the 5e later on today and see if that helps and then with a 6. I have another stupid though: Here I'm talking about speeds from PC to NAS, but what about file transfers...

Is there any way to tell if it's straight or twisted? The writing on the cable?

Dammit. Will play around tomorrow a bit and see if I can squeeze out any more using 5e or maybe 6.

So is there no way to send files to the NAS from my PC over the network at speeds greater than 30MB/s?

So when copying stuff TO the NAS I should look at the write speed? If so, that table quotes 25.7MB/s but I get 35 consistently, how does that work?

Ok well it seems that the cable I had connected was CAT5 but I do have a CAT5e cable lying around so I'll retest the transfer speed using 5e and report back tomorrow. Apart from that, having all the latest drivers and firmware and whatnot, I should be expecting closer to 100MB/s, right?

Will try setting it up. But how exactly will that help in determining why the transfer speed is not closer to 100MB/s as it should be?
