    New to NAS; need some advice

    Thanks for the input and advice. I'll just stay with a model that has a single LAN port then. I don't want to make things more complicated than they need to be.:D

    New to NAS; need some advice

    One more question, what can a 2nd lan port be used for? I'm deciding between the Synology 214 play and the 214+. The play has 1 lan port while the + has 2. Thanks

    New to NAS; need some advice

    Thanks so much for the replies. I found this switch: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001EVGIYG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2F6E975V906X0 What do you think? Is auto-negotiation the same as auto-sensing? Thanks

    WD 4TB USB 3.0 External Hard Drive $109 shipped

    I saw this deal yesterday and ordered one. Returned the same drive I picked up at BB for $50 that cost about $50 more out the door for me (tax). BHphoto has been great for me. In stock stuff ships fast and prices are very good.

    Best DVD-R or +R media out there?

    Taiyo Yuden; Falcon currently my favorites in terms of failure rate and longevity. Sony and Phillips - pretty good write failure rate; can't comment on longevity (haven't been using them long enough to test this out). Currently using some HP -DVR that are CMC Mags. So far so good. I'd...

    Asus rebate scam

    Upgrade or not, if so to which Gpu?

    Thanks all! Will just use the 670 FTW that I have. I fought off the major upgrade bug with your assistance. Just aren't looking forward to switching over to Nvidia from AMD. Have to clear out all remnants of the AMD drivers 1st and then install Nvidia. Or should I just do a clean reinstall...

    Upgrade or not, if so to which Gpu?

    Budget is $400 ish so I'm looking at 770 4gb card. My needs are relatively modest - single monitor, gaming COD Black Ops, resolution 1920. I realize that 4gb is overkill but I'm looking towards the future. $600 ish for a Gpu is way too much for me!

    Best video card to pair with my 2600k?

    Cool! Thx for all your replies! Now to decide how to explain to the wife why I "need" to upgrade my Gpu! Hmmm.... Maybe I'll unplug the power cable to the card and then when she turns on the PC and sees a black screen.......:)

    Best video card to pair with my 2600k?

    Thanks for your replies. My main gaming now is Call of Duty Black ops. No problems playing. Just got the upgrade bug. If I pony up for a 770 or 780 (doubt), my hardware will support it ? How much performance increase would a 770 give over a 670? Thx

    Currently running an I7 2600k stock along with an HD 6850 2gb. I've got the upgrade bug now. What's the best Nvidia Gpu upgrade I can go for. I game but don't plan on multiple monitors. I do have an EVGA 670 FTW 2gb sitting around that I'll either sell or keep depending feedback I receive...

    GTX 670 ASUS TOP Issue running Heaven?

    I received my TOP from Amazon last week and after reading all these reports of issues, it's going back unopened. Too bad, I really wanted the Asus due to the quiet cooling solution, but I don't want to have to deal with Asus for warranty repairs.
