This is exactly what I did. I consolidated a 4 disk 4Tb array, an external 4Tb eSATA drive, and an 8Tb WD MyBook USB drive into a nice, neat, 16Tb 2 disk array.
I don't anticipate a ton of power savings (though there will be some, going from 6 disks to 2). However, it's much neater, cleaner...
Bought a $5 and a $20
Ended up with one of those junk data vault things, one of the 5 device charging stations, and a VT1000 dock.
The data vault is going in the trash. The 5 device charging station is cheap plastic junk, but the actual charger is nice, so I kept it for charging devices in the...
Good deal for these!
I ran a 1050Ti for a couple of years and loved it. Little card is a champ.
It's now plugging away in my Plex server doing video encoding. Perfect because it doesn't require external power.
Good luck selling! Wish I had a use for one of them!
I need to upgrade the storage in my r710 at my house, but unfortunately it only has the Perc 6i controller, and will only accept maximum 2Tb drives.
The H700 will work, but it uses a different interface with the HDD Backplane, so that will need to be upgraded too. This is the 3.5" drive model...
Oh man, what a throwback. I remember going to a Gateway STORE to pick out and purchase my first PC. I don't remember how old I was, but I do remember being AMAZED at the displays in there.
That was a good PC. Lasted us quite a long time IIRC.
But honestly, I thought they disappeared years ago.
Looking for rack parts. Mostly blanks, blanks with holes/brushes for passing cables through, etc. Trying to organize my rack a bit better.
PM me. Thanks!
I have an original Gameboy that still works. I've been holding onto it for nostalgia's sake, but might be willing to part with it. Should have a few games as well. I'll dig it out if you're interested.
So, I made sure my OS was up to date. Removed and reinstalled the drivers, tried to update the mouse firmware (it was already updated), etc. Finally, I took the unifying adapter and the mouse, plugged it in to another PC. Re-paired it with the unifying adapter on channel 1, and verified that the...
Got the MX Master 3 running on my Windows 10 machine. OS and mouse drivers updated fully.
The mouse seemingly "goes to sleep" after 1 second of inactivity. If I keep moving it, scrolling, etc. it works absolutely flawlessly. No input lag, nothing. But, if I stop moving for more than a second at...

I feel bad for the father who is likely facing some large fines and possible jail time.
Apparently he couldn't get his kids to put down the electronics and go to sleep, so he...
Mouse is a Logitech M500
It has been, by far, the most comfortable and longest lasting mouse that I've owned. I've replaced my home mouse with the MX Master, and it's good, but I don't love it yet as much as I love the M500.
Keyboard is:
Duck One 2 Skyline with Cherry MX Brown switches
I love...
NFTs are my favorite thing happening to the internet right now. I heard them best described as:
Imagine that you're married, and you love your wife. The problem is that, your wife doesn't love you, and anybody that wants to fuck your wife goes ahead and fucks your wife whenever, and however...
Hey, I have that case! Good case!
If you were local to me I'd just give you the damn thing. It's been sitting on a shelf in my basement unused for a couple of years now.
I might actually consider it.
Since having my first child, my PC gaming has taken a major hit, and I find myself sitting on the couch play Switch or something like that more and more often versus sitting in my office on my computer.
Bringing PC gaming to handheld could be fucking awesome.
Hey all, looking for some used drives.
I'm trying to rebuild my Plex server and trying to be pretty conservative with costs if I can.
I'm looking for 4 drives that will give me a total of 16Tb or more of storage space. If I can get matching drives, I'll end up putting them in a RAID 10, but...
I stole this from the Reddit thread:
The argument is that, Apple "does not have access to the raw images, only the image hashes" and that they are using the hashes to compare against a database of known abuse images.
MY argument is that, this is bullshit. It literally means that Apple DOES...
Hey guys. My parent's Ring Doorbell stopped charging off of the hardwire. Appears as if some water got in and corroded the charging circuit. It still charges off of USB.
I'm thinking I can replace the corroded board and I should be good.
Wondering if any of you have and old/broken one that...
Anybody like picasso21 using any customization tools? I liked some of the options available back in the day, but some of them were bloated and resource heavy.
I'd like to see what's available, and how people like them.
Based on some other posts as well, I can survive until the Pixel 5 is at least announced.
I used to use OtterBox 100% of the time, but it's so big and bulky that it makes the phone very inconvenient to use outside of work. I prefer to slip the phone in a pocket when I'm out versus hanging it...
Hey all, I'm so out of the loop on new phones, and have literally no idea where to start.
I'm currently on a Google Pixel 2. Honestly, I LOVE the phone. I haven't had a single "major problem" with the phone to date, and I would love if I could just replace it with a modern version of the dame...
Well, that fixed it. I guess I jumped the gun on this one.
I was concerned because my brother never got the monitor to run properly to the point where he stopped using it...
I ordered one, should be here Wednesday. I'm HOPING this will solve most of the issue, but I don't have high hopes. My brother was having the same issue while connected via Displayport on his gaming rig. :/
Hey guys, figured I'd see if you guys had any input for me.
I've got an ASUS UHD4K2K (Model B286HK) that my brother hated, so he gave it to me.
He hated it because it was "laggy" and borderline unusable. Right now, I couldn't find a Displayport to Displayport cord, so I'm connected via HDMI...
