This was an elderly ladies, she barely used it.
I did the PowerWash cycle to erase all her info and settings, ChromeOS pops a message that further updates wont be supported on this, but it seems to run fine, battery lasts a while, AC cord has no...
we retired those a couple years ago. they do not get os updates and chrome stopped in the 90s(version#). if someone can get by with that, then its an ok browser machine.
I moved my computer to a new case during an upgrade and had a pair of 2TB NAS drives that I was using internally for mirror purposes for a newer 4TB (2x 2TB partitions). New case doesn't have room for the extra 3.5" drives.
Looking for a 3.5"...
Thanks for all the help and replies! Made -some- progress? Somehow I got it to boot successfully with that board attached at one point but it went back to boot looping again. I may have to go over it with a (literal) magnifying glass and see if I...
Or just get 2x 10Gb sfp cards and run a DAC between them or use sfps and fibre. Far cheaper and faster than even one switch for a point to point between two PCs. Hell, might as well just go ahead and get 20Gb or 40Gb if you're going to be...
These are the QNAP's I have, TPlink has a similar one for around $100-120. I paid $120 each for these on sale, they were $140+ and hard to get for awhile due to the chip shortage a couple of years ago.
I saw that Asus as well. Definetly not paying $800. If I can't find a decent router with LAN ports, a standalone switch could work as well. I'm just hoping to have it all in a single unit. Less clutter.
Does that mean if I have 2Gbps internet service and I have 2 machines plugged into the 1Gbps ports, each one can only download at 500Mbps, or would each be able to get 1Gbps?
edit: Oh, just looked up what those were and they are security features.
This would be awesome if it had all 2.5GbE ports, but what does this mean in this image?
IDS/IPS throughput 1Gbps. Does that mean even though it has a 2.5GbE Wan port that only 1Gbps can go through it?
Unifi just came out with the Cloud Gateway Ultra with 2.5GB WAN connection for 129$. Throw in a UG+ Access point and you got something that just works :) and is much cheaper than that junk
