I do not overclock.

I am giving you hours. I just look at how often I record. Those numbers are not continuously. I record between 7.5 hours to 15 hours a day. I record about 6 hours Monday-Friday on just ESPN alone. Also can you tell me how can I measure the temperature of a hard drive behind a array? I have...

You are correct. I am not reading/writing 24/7/365. I probably writing about 6 days a week 7.5 - 15 hours/day. I am going to have to buy a volt meter.

I don't have any vibration issues. I don't think I have a power supply issue. The power supply never unexpectedly shutdown or reboot unless there is a power outage. I have a 380W earthwatts running 3 HGST 4tb, 3 Seagates 320 GB drives, 120gb Kingston ssd, H700, a i5 cpu, and a EVGA GT 610...

I bought 3 HGST 4TB drives and so far 2 of them have gone out. I bought 3 2TB seagates and only 1 of them lasted also. I ran both set of drives in a raid and they were used to record tv shows with WMC. At this point I don't know what brand of drives I can try next. The only drives I never had...

Thank you for this post. A month ago I tried for 3 days to get my i217V nic working but was unsuccessful. I used the same 2 sites that you linked but I think I didn't follow all of the steps. I believe my problem was I was running the wrong setup executable file. I tried to run setupBD...

You was right about the cache. I should have mention that I was running 3 hard drives in a raid 5 using the onboard raid with the Intel Raid Storage technology software. I went into the Intel Raid software and saw that the "Write-cache buffer flushing" feature was enabled. After I disabled this...

Is there a reason why you retired the Server 2012 when your drop off was better in this server at 1.5Gs instead of the Win8 at 100-200Ms?

I am having problems transferring large files to my Windows 8 machine from my Windows 7, Windows 2008 Server, and Windows 2012 server. The files starts off transferring between 110-118MB/s but then drop below 20MB/s and stay there. I have tried 2 different nics (onboard and a Intel pro 1000mt...
