Switched to Project Fi so I have a new Pixel, but this phone was awesome while I used it.
FWIW, my single (positive!) Heatware review :) http://www.heatware.com/u/104693
Basically what I'm looking to do is to get pfsense running on a VirtualBox instance on my home server just to play around with the UI. I'm brand new to it, and based off reviews I think it would be great to have as my next router solution. At this point I don't want it to actually route...
I haven't come across any recent lists of the actual ranking of the vendor/manufacturer of video cards. A lot goes into consideration when making a purchase, and dealing with the company who makes the card and their customer service/support is a large part of that.
I pulled this list of vendors...
Currently have an X58 Rampage III Gene. Yeah, I know it's a little old but there's plenty of people here who know X58 boards still have a large fanbase. One of the problems I've run into on this board and newer is that when the manufacturers of onboard components come up with better firmware...
I'm looking to build my own home security camera system. I've heard different things about iSpy and ZoneMinder, though more positive about iSpy. I definitely like to support Linux when I can even though my skillset isn't nearly as strong as my Windows IT knowledge.
Are there any other strong...
Most of the people who would read this forum don't need each option to be explained to them, but I'm sure fellow field techs would appreciate my quick checklist. Since there's so many "features" that send information to MS by the shovel full, it's easy to forget some when setting up a new system...
I'm moving on from ASUS. I've liked the feature rich boards they sell - when they work. Otherwise, it's a complete shit show.
It seems like they have laser focus on "point of sale" only, meaning getting you to the door and out the door with their box is all they drive. Once the transaction is...
Ran a test on my seed box/home storage to see the difference between h.264 and h.265 in Handbrake.
System specs:
ASRock Rack C226 WS+
Intel Xeon E3-1246V3
Kingston 32GB (8GBx4) ECC 1600MHz RAM
On-chip VGA
Mushkin ECO2 120GB SSD (OS), 8x4TB Seagate SSHD on ARC-1883i (storage)

Was finally able to test out my ARC-1883i on a decent board rather than the (admittedly) bargain basement AMD board I have been using for years, and works great. I used my desktop's Rampage III Gene and put the card into PCIe slot 1, which I didn't do before, and worked perfectly.
I've finally...

Scenario:
My laptop (HP 15t-j000) has a Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD, and I just bought a Samsung 840 EVO mSATA 250GB SSD as an upgrade to the ADATA I currently have. Sadly, Samsung doesn't make a 256GB mSATA, but I got a great deal on it (~$100).
I plan on putting the drives in RAID 0 using...

ARC-1883i-SA - $650
ARC-1883i - $630

A while back when I set up my raid array, I had 4x1.5TB drives in RAID 5 and was originally planning to expand to 8x1.5TB drives to fill the controller. Well, this was several years ago and both technology and my payscale have increased nicely.
When one of the 1.5TB drives took a dump a few...
Hello!
I've been doing some upgrading to my Rampage III Gene motherboard lately. Since people are hot and bothered for X99, I decided to take a look at some components.
- Got a modded BIOS from Bios-Mods to update the Intel and Marvell OROMs. Fixed a lot of issues
- I picked up a Xeon X5675 for...
