    Linux OS for workstation, VMs, and gaming.

    Single player, yes. Easy Anti-cheat can be disabled. But not multiplayer. https://areweanticheatyet.com/game/empyrion-galactic-survival But this is not a significant loss. I rarely interact. Like most other games, I play alone.

    Linux OS for workstation, VMs, and gaming.

    The only multiplayer games I play are World of Warcraft and Empyreon. Could Proxmox gett around that?

    Linux OS for workstation, VMs, and gaming.

    A Windows 11 on-demand VM for games that refuse to function on Linux. That's why there is a passthrough GPU, and there will also be a passthrough NVMe. I am also considering testing OneDrive sync with a Tiny11 VM middleman. The VM will sync with OneDrive to folders on the VM, which are then...

    Linux OS for workstation, VMs, and gaming.

    I am researching Linux distros with excellent game support but also good for use as a workstation. Gaming is the main focus, but I also do video encoding, Python, and multiple VMs (one with a passthrough GPU). So far I have narrowed it to Catchy, Pop!, Nobara, and Zorin. Any suggestions on...

    Customized system back up

    Does anyone know of a backup app for Windows 11 that can do a System Backup without specific folders? I have a laptop with a 2TB NVMe SSD. The OS, apps, and users account for 192GB. The games take up 823GB. My PC has an SSD with the OS and apps while the games and libraries are on another.

    RAID backup

    For those who have made suggestions with costs going into the thousands of dollars, this is a home network with significant budget limits. Saving up for the Synology DS1522+ took 6 months

    RAID backup

    Yes, that is the plan. The question was about using RAID 0 on the backup. Based on how the old NAS will be used, it sounds practical to me.

    RAID backup

    A thought came to mind using my old NAS as a backup of my main. It will be powered up every month or two for the backup process. The new NAS will use SHR and eventually SHR2. Since the old NAS will be on for no more than a day. Would RAID 0 be practical, or a bad choice? It would lower the...

    RAID backup

    What I have is an old Synology NAS (DS415) with 4 6TB HDD in RAID 10. I use it for backups of home systems and my Plex library. I am getting a new one, DS-1522+, in a few weeks. So I could use the old one as the backup. Would powering it on once a month to perform a backup be a good plan? Or...

    Anyone went strictly to SSDs only yet ?

    Since NVMe, we have gone completely SSD for our PCs and laptops. The only place we use HDDs is in our NAS.

    RAID backup

    It is well documented that RAID is not a form of backup. But with large arrays, what is a valid backup? If you have a 50TB array, what is there to back up to except...a RAID array? Do cloud backup options use some other form of redundant data storage?

    Your most played games?

    I began playing shortly after the Gates of AQ opened. I'd estimate that was around 02/2006. I don't play in a steady pattern. I spend long hours playing when patches come out to continue the story on multiple characters. Then I usually have content fatigue and play other stuff. Last night, I...
