    Question about Software RAID

    i don't really care about the HDD noise. I will get the cheapest ones, probably the Toshiba DT01ACA

    Question about Software RAID

    Don't have a spare room. Besides that, i've read the powersupplies always take a huge amount of power/ fan always spinning even when offline etc. Is that true? Is power consumption that negligible for servers?

    Question about Software RAID

    To be true, the main problem I'm having right now is, i fell in love with those 1u/2u dell servers :D. Is there any way to make the noise level living-room acceptable? I mean, i know those things from work...they are like jets :/ Otherwise i will just stuff a bunch of hdds in my PC use the...

    Question about Software RAID

    due to all the posts on the forum i totally focused on software solutions like zfs, unraid, flexraid etc... Now im wondering, whats so bad about the buildin RAID feature which every mainboard has nowadays? Im guessing that all mainboards with more than ~6 SATA interfaces cant create HDD...

    Question about Software RAID

    The reason i wrote snapRAID is based on this chart: http://snapraid.sourceforge.net/compare.html All others seem to have downsides. >RAID is for data availability not backup. It does protect me from drive failures, which is my main concern.

    Question about Software RAID

    Hi I want to protect my data from disc failures. But I'm unsure what the best solution in my case is. Either i build a dedicated fileserver, or add the storage to my main PC. I dislike the first version, because it would need unnecessary energy, i only use the files on one PC anyways. I...

    Server vs. Nas

    If i decide to build my own server/nas, im not sure whether to use ECC or standard RAM. I know most recommend ECC Ram and i understand why. Arguments are usually: it doesnt cost much more, lets you sleep better etc.. Its true the ram itself doesnt cost much more. But the mainboards do cost A...

    Server vs. Nas

    @-Dragon- Oh boy do i know this problem :D My nas already evolved into 1 x Intel Xeon E3-1220LV2, 2x 2.30GHz, Sockel-1155, tray (CM8063701099001) 1 x Kingston ValueRAM Hynix DIMM 4GB PC3L-10667R reg ECC CL9 (DDR3L-1333) (KVR13LR9S4/4HE) 1 x ASUS P8B-C/4L, C202 (Sockel-1155, dual PC3-10667E...

    Server vs. Nas

    isnt ZFS just a Filesystem like FAT, NTFS, extX ...? It just has advanced capabilities for mass storage configurations. But how is it not raid? Raid just means redundant array of independent disks, for which a RAIDzX configuration, as the name already states, surely qualifies.

    need your opinion on laptop resolution 1366x768

    imo it depends on what you want to do with it. Ive no issues with 1366x768 what so ever. Be it gaming, blender3d, movies, browsing

    Server vs. Nas

    yes ecc ram would be nice. The problem is, it increases the cost by a huge amount. The question is, is it really necessary :/

    Server vs. Nas

    @ashman dont get me wrong. In an Business IT situation, i wouldnt even think about building one. Always buy supported industry grade stuff, this way you can blame others for failures. But the private situation is different. >Why on earth would i buy a prebuild system? i guess i should have...

    Server vs. Nas

    A few weeks ago i wanted to buy a prebuild NAS (synology, qnap etc...) After learning about most of the products in the 4+ Nas Market. I started reading about building my own via freenas, etc... My question at this point, why would i even buy a pure NAS product? The good ones need around 20W...

    Bitfenix Prodigy - How does this Build look?

    64gb ssd are imo not a good idea. You want your games on it too! With 64gb you may be able to install the os and a few programs. You get the fast bootspeed (which is nice, but pretty meaningless considering how much time you waste on the boot process vs the time on ingame loading screens) 256gb...
