Strangel situation... After rebooting me server, the LSI controller dropped 1 of the HDD off the RAID10 array, and it seems a few minutes later it dropped another off the array. Now, the RAID10 is giving out a failed status. Is there a way anywhere in MSM or from the controller BIOS to re-add...

How do I get SMART information from the drives in a RAID10 array that is behind an HP SAS Expander and built on a LSI 2308 controller ? I used to be able to see the SMART info on the same drives using CrystalDiskInfo when the drives were still independent, and not configured in a RAID. In...

I'm planning to move/migrate my RAID10 array of 4 disks from one server to another server which is dedicated for the use of the RAID10. So here's the question, can I just move the set of HDDs part of the RAID10 array and plug them on the new server and have all the data readily available ? The...

.....of a fan controller that uses PWM information to automatically re-adjust fan speed of other non-PWM (3-pin) fans ? So basically, a 4-pin PWM fan header from motherboard goes to this fan controller, let's say receives instruction to run fan at 50%, the controller then translates this as...

I've been browsing around already to find an answer, because Amazon has 2 listings of the same board with a small difference on the model name, and I can't figure out what their difference is, and they have 10er in price difference. Supermicro X10SLL-F-O...

I'm looking for a gaming laptop but it has to a have a few things I want: imo, decent enough as a desktop gaming replacement ...Geforce 770M or higher since I don't game at all times, and I have 3 monitor setup as a developer, and I will have the latop's lid/screen closed. ...2 DP/mDP...

What could I use to get SATA3 (or 6G or what-ever-you-wanna-call-the-latest-gen) with an old X58-based system. I have an 840 Pro, seems like a waste having it plugged on just a SATA2 system. I could buy a PCIe card to get SATA3, but I will need something that can be natively AHCI supported...

I've done some searching where I can think of , and I couldn't find any that seems right. Does anyone have an idea if an mSATA to PCIe adapter exists in this world ? I have a quite a few Kingston mS200s laying around at home, and I was thinking of using one me server that has an empty PCIe x1...

Ive got my home wired and wireless network setup good, and happy with it. Thing is, there have been times that when my guests or my home sitter want to use their own iPad or laptop to connect to my WLAN, problem is I really cant be bothered to set a new mac address on the filter of my router...

I'm looking for an ITX board with at least 6x SATA ports...any of yous have a suggestion ? I will only be putting the 6 HDDs I have for data storage, and run XP on it, and just do a simple share. No fancy NAS features needed. Just something reliable, fast enough to provide offer the HD playback...

Ok, well my NAS/HTPC setup is no longer running, basically not powering up anymore, and I don't fancy re-doing the current setup again specially that Vista is just a piece of shite as HTPC. I have about 3 HDDs in this system that are the WD20EARS, and they have been formatted with the 4K thingy...

I just got meself 2x WD20EARS last week, I got it formatted in 4K. Now after having it a week, one of them is showing a C6 and C5 CAUTION warning from Crystal disk info. Researching about it now...but if there is already someone that knows and is willing to share an insight, that would be...

...I've always wondered if it does work. But I never felt like giving it a try, so I may as well ask the masters ;) The EVGA X58 micro has 2 PCIe x16, electrically and physically. The design is: ====================== (S1:x16) ===== (S2:x1) ====================== (S3:x16)...

...but was it worth the 4 months of my time ? I don't think so ! First off, this thread may be for the other forums, but for my situation I believe it's best suited here (well it's just a gut feeling). This all happened on MONALISA2 (see sig for specc details). For the past 4 months I...

I'm making plans and sketching my watercooling setup. Since the A05 cases are a bit tight of a space, I can still manage as to mounting the acrylic reservoir outside the case and have the tubes go in. My concern is, is there any consequence having the reservoir exposed outside, like possible...

What's the difference in the 100$ active DisplayPort-to-DVI adapters and a $15 normal DisplayPort-to-DVI adapter ? Researching at the moment, but any shared info from this forum is much appreciated ;)

I'm at a lost here....... help me please ?! See signature for speccs (MONALISA2). Problem: nothing happens Everything is 101% plugged. Turn on, no beeps, POST LCD only says "WELCOME" then shows some sort of time maybe, and that's it. Nothing on monitor. I only see mobo LED lights for...

So uhmmm.... I've been thinking of making a dedicated NAS server with WHS. I'm thinking going cheap with it, at least mobo has to be mATX, has 6-SATA ports, 1* PCIe x1, 1* PCIe x16, and an IDE port, although ofc a built-in VGA. I've been able to find a few choices... Intel chipset based or...

Well I haven't seen any comparative benchmarks between these two setups. But if someone has experience please let me know ? I'm planning on grabbing a 285 or 260 (216) or 275, and use it as a third card for now...just as an upgrade path in the future, specially when the 300s will ever come...

Do you use any third-party anti-virus and/or software firewall solutions on your WHS servers or any Windows-based NAS server ? There is quite a big performance take-down when I have one on. But do you also do so ? Or what do you do ?

I'm kinda off the rigging industry for a year now.... so I'm asking and also researching. I'm planning on an upgrade soon, but my question holds on the PSU requirement for the latest techs. How much wattage and amp on PSUs is required if I were to run dual 290s or 285s now-a-days. I'm...
