    FreeNAS 9.1.0 CIFS Disconnects

    Update FreeNAS to 9.1.1. Probably won't fix the issue, but it's a start. http://www.freenas.org/whats-new/2013/08/freenas-9-1-1-release.html

    Thinking of Upgrading NAS (using FreeNAS)

    Honestly, ram isn't that important with ZFS if speed is not a concern. My original server (until last week) was an Atom w/4gb ram and a 38tb pool. No issues with stability or performance as it only serves media files. While your setup wouldn't be ideal, I'm sure it would be fine to play around...

    Can I upgrade this ipod touch 4G?

    Unless you saved the SHSH blobs for 6.1.2, you will not be able to update. In fact, trying to update will just put you into an endless update loop until you install the latest iOS6 release (which will cause you to lose your jailbreak).

    Metro: Last Light Discussion

    So does anyone know how to lock this game to 1 monitor when running SLI Surround? Normally just setting the res to 1920x1200 works but the UI doesn't give me that option. And forcing it in the user.cfg makes the res drop to 1280x400 (or something similar). Surround breaks vertical mouse...

    Need help making a Exact image of my Hard Drive which includes the OS

    Acronis would be the easiest, you can either install it or just have it burn you a bootable CD that will allow you to make a full backup to the location of your choosing.

    Just placed an RMA for a WD Drive. Will they send the same exact model?

    Since you're doing an advance RMA you'll probably get a new drive, for every one I've done in the last year I've received a HDD with a manufacture date of 2-3 weeks earlier.

    If you're looking for data recovery, I always recommend Drive Savers: http://www.drivesaversdatarecovery.com/ They're not cheap, but they'll get the job done.

    Intel Atom as a base for a NAS?

    I probably have the same mobo as you, currently running FreeNAS 8.2 with 6x3tb/4x2tb raidz2 setup and it's been great. Plenty fast for media streaming (45-60MB/s avg writes), quiet and stable. Very capable system.

    iOS 6 back to 5?

    Right, but he's on a 4S which means that he can't downgrade no matter what server he points to.

    iOS 6 back to 5?

    If you have a 4S and it was on 5.1.1 and jb w/ saved SHSH's you can reinstall 5.1.1 whenever you want. Once you upgrade to 6, you're stuck there permanently no matter what you have saved. http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/31869383801/blob-o-riffic

    Dishonored

    Game looks great, FOV is wayyyyy too low to be usable in Surround. Anyone know how to up it? I'm currently limited to only one monitor in order for it to be playable.

    Where to buy MBP parts?

    We usually go with the PowerBook Guy, at least in the Bay Area that's where Apple sends people if their machines are out of warranty. http://www.keanesf.com/

    Petabyte Storage

    Personally I would look at Isilon rather than build your own for a project of this size, too many things can go wrong when you try to do it entirely on your own. Edit: Not to mention adding storage with Isilon is stupid simple, plug another node in and press 2 buttons. Takes less than 10 minutes.

    Mac memory modules

    If you're looking for compatible ram, I'd buy from OWC. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/ They usually stock OEM memory along with their house brand, so if you need it to be 100% compatible I'd go with them.

    Bought my first Mac

    Doesn't support NLA, sadly (which rules it out for any version of Server past 08). It might be a personal thing, but I don't like lowering my security standards just for one app.

    Bought my first Mac

    I haven't, but it should work pretty well based on everything else I've used from them. I personally don't like mucking around with HFS+, as old and half assed as it is.

    System Shock 2 and Thief 2 get ninja patched

    Ding ding ding! An insurance company in Michigan owns the IP rights and apparently are demanding way more money that SS is worth to any dev or publisher who are willing to buy. Till that changes, no SS for anyone outside of the original boxed copies.

    Your favorite games for surround gaming

    Borderlands 2 works great, so do the Assassins Creed games (at least all the ones after 1, never bothered trying with it). I know people love to shit on Ubisoft, but every AC game has worked fantastically out of the box in surround which is not something I can say for most things I play.

    Current setup is too slow, but will my CPU bottleneck newer cards?

    Good to know, I've had some pretty bad experiences with AMD drivers so I'm really looking at the GTX670/680 right now. Unless of course I'm just wrong and AMD is a better buy. That being said, I guess I'm still debating if the 4gb cards would help in the longer run (I haven't upgraded anything...

    Anyone have any problems with RMAed WD hard drives?

    Not always, in fact I've done over 10 personal RMA's with WD (bad sign?) and I've only once received a refurb drive. Did one two weeks ago for a 2tb GP and got a brand new drive manufactured on June 14th of this year.
