    Lowest Cost HTPC with HEVC 10bit support in 2H 2019?

    Thanks. However, my experience with NAS is that unless you have everything cabled, transferring files over Wifi is very slow, and I don't have cabling. I normally process my Blurays in my PC, and transferring to the NAS takes forever by wifi. I am not super crazy about coloring and such. I am...

    Lowest Cost HTPC with HEVC 10bit support in 2H 2019?

    Hello guys. Some years ago I needed to build a HTPC and I was nicely advised here. So I am back again in 2019. I want to build a low cost HTPC that supports 10 bit HEVC@4K and 10 SATA hard drives. It can be a 6 SATA motherboard with some extension card. I will probably run Windows 10 with it...

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    Hi. I just got all the components and I already installed most things. Now, I bought an original LSI 9240-8i, not an IBM Branded one. I believe I can still do the cross flash, but want to make sure. The other question is, you mention IT mode, but it looks to me that IR mode has all the...

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    I thought your only job was to be waiting for my doubts! ;) I got confused because I thought that at this level of drives (11), a mid tower was too small to be taken seriously, but since you confirmed it, i trusted you and ordered it. Actually this is the key point why I decided to follow...

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    Your link gives an error. This link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146078 (notice the additional 8 at the end), brings me to the "NZXT Source 210 Elite Black Steel with painted interior ATX Mid Tower Computer Case w/ Black Front Trim". But that is a "mid tower", I'm...

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    It has to do with costs, both solutions are about the same, the difference is that I can sell my HTPC and recover money. Also, about the noise I decided to install this pc on another room, and use a long (10 meter) hdmi cable so that the noise, if any, is no noticeable. Since it has 2 hdmi, I...

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    For reasons I don’t want to discuss, I decided in favor of a big HTPC with 40TB of hard drive space. These are all the parts that with the help of forum members I have selected, thanks to all of them, for a total of $452. Now, I have checked myself and it appears that all the options...

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    I have one question about the SeaSonic S12G http://www.seasonicusa.com/S12G.htm How many molex plugs does it has? It seems it has 3, is that correct? If that is the case, I would use 2 of this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812119238 to have 12 sata power connectors, is...

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    I have to agree with you. The important thing is that if one of the hd die, at leas have access to the rest. My original plan was to FlexRaid, but since everybody was talking about ZFS, i thought, ok, that is the way to go. But I would rather use FlexRaid or unRAID, whatever fits my needs better.

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    If I had 1000 dollars to spend, I would do a better server than a synology. 3000 is way out of my budget. But thanks anyway.

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    Thanks. I would go with you suggestion then. You do know that a synology is about 3000?

    40 TB RAID Server: What components to buy?

    Now I see your point. Your solution is much better. Thanks for that! Now, the only thing I might buy, is this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817996019 It is much better rated than the cooler master, but I believe it should fit ok?
