    Nexus M ( 2015 ) Smartphone

    Yes, it was this. My apologies for sparking the brainfest. I have no knowledge of the backings of this. Coming from a Nexus 5, this charges about twice as fast, which impressed me.

    Acronics "cannot find boot loader"

    That's odd. I've never had an issue using Acronis to clone a drive. Try using the WD version. It will still work fine. Maybe there's an issue of 2014 that came with your drive.

    What is your favorite piece of hardware to go along with your PC?

    That hifi system is beautiful. Wish I had the money to spend on a decent system myself. For me it's my RAT7 gaming mouse. It's just so comfortable. I had an MX Revolution for years (still have it - it sits on my workstation at work now) and it's just leaps and bounds more comfortable when gaming.

    Nexus M ( 2015 ) Smartphone

    Got my 5X yesterday (Thursday). Initial reviews by some people (mostly those OCD people that expect a Nexus phone to be an iPhone/Moto X) almost scared me into cancelling my order but I'm glad I didn't. The haptic feedback motor noise is my only complaint so far. The camera blows the Nexus 5...

    Your home ESX server lab hardware specs?

    I'm very glad I got my server. I may be working a contract job soon that wants Mirage implemented. I've experimented with it before, but that was a year and a half ago, so I need to refresh my memory :D

    VMWare vs Oracle Virtual Box

    VBox for personal stuff, VMware for professional stuff. VMware is just much more streamlined.

    learning the ropes for VM

    I use virtualbox for personal stuff but I like how VMware works much more, as it is much more streamlined. When you move onto bigger and better things like ESXi though, you'll not miss the desktop virtualization options at all :D

    Wife says DL360 G7 is too loud

    I find it hard to believe it's that loud. I own a DL360 G6 myself and it's quite quiet (much more than my DL380 G3's I used to have). I've also worked with DL380 G7's and G8's and they've always run quite quiet.

    Which Server should I buy?

    Look for a DL360 G5 or G6. G6's are a little pricier and you'll want to add more RAM and HDD's but you'll get solid performance.

    Logitech warranty is pretty legit.

    I hope these are isolated incidents. I've always bought Logitech products because of their quality and easy warranty service. Did the change of name to Logi also include changing their support quality? Hmm....

    Your home ESX server lab hardware specs?

    Wow, you guys go all out on home labs! I don't have much money to throw at equipment right now, so I'm making due with a HP DL360 G6 || 2x Quad core E5540 @ 2.53 || 68GB PC3-10600R || 8x 300GB drives.

    Are the $200+ home routers worth it?

    If I had it my way, I'd buy a Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite and use that to send data to an unmanaged switch hooked up to a UniFi AP or two around my house. But that all depends on how much networking experience you have. Otherwise a $120 ASUS router should do the trick.

    VMWare EXSi 5.5

    Instead of wasting HDD space for the hipervisor, buy yourself a 4GB SD card. The ProLiants have an SD card slot built onto the motherboard for this purpose. I'm personally running the same server with ESXi 5.5 Update 2, 68GB of RAM, and 8x 300GB drives. The processors are 2x Quad core E5540 @...

    Dedicated server advice

    Personally if I were you I'd invest in some used server equipment. You can get used HP ProLiant servers for pretty cheap (I just bought an HP DL360 G6, loaded it up with 64GB of RAM and 2.4TB worth of drives for about $795 total (you can go cheaper on the RAM and HDD's if desired - the server...

    Finally got to get my hands on my N5 today from home. It's fantastic! At first I thought I'd really miss having flashy skins (like Sense - coming from an HTC Inspire 4G).
