for me VA is causing more strain, but as it was brought here many times, I am not sure whether this is really panel problem for sure. I use 24" AOC VA FHD 165Hz at home and dual NEC 271Q QHD IPS 60Hz at the office and an OLED TV. At home I feel a lot more eye strein. Still, I use the monitor at...

damn :/ thanks for the info, guess I have to see :)

I am planning to buy PNY 2070S Dual as well as and add accelero extreme III + 2 120mm fans. Did you try to remove the cooling from PNY? How it looks like? Can you provide some photos? Can it be deinstalled so that I can be reinstalled later on? I assume any cooling solution should be viable for...

Thanks a lot for this. I was wandering the internet, hoping to find someone who was not a proffesional tester and just did a test at his home. And I found you. Brilliant. Please tell me how loud was the fan around 300-350w if you can or when it started for you during your last test.

Nope, fan noise is gone ;) but definately its turning on more often than on XPS

thanks. I think I am going to reinstall. Dont know why but fan in this machine is constantly running :/

I just bought Lenovo X1 Extreme Gen2. I am thinking about doing clean install. I do it each time I buy a new PC, but this time it seems that my new laptop came with almost no shit-ware (O365 and Lenovo Vantage only). Only reason that will make me do it is that current available W10 build is...

I know that this thread is two years old but my question is - did they fix that noise issue? SX500-LG is still being sold and actually if not that reported problems, I would already have bought one. So, anyone?

I know, its just I though that maybe the card was so unworthy testing that no one wanted to do it.

thanks for a fast reply :) I am leaning towards 2070 myself, just did not decide yet and frankly it is kind of strange that almost no review of 2070 VENTUS can be found over the net.

Hi, I need some advice which GPU to choose. My two deal breakers are noise levels and price/performance ratio. I am looking at MSI 2070 VENTUS 8GB and MSI 2060 SUPER GAMING X. They both will fit into a small case and work at acceptable noise level. I wonder whether: 1. 2060SUPER Gaming will...

Hi, I bought XPS 9570 which has Thunderbolt 3 port with power delivery function. I also have LG 27UD88W monitor which can source power to TB3 devices. So now with one cable I can replace: - USB cable between notebook and monitor USB hub - DP/HDMI cable - power adapter of my laptop. The problem...

Thanks for you reply. It is all I needed to know.

one more question about this HW if i may - is anyone aware what SSD is mounted in this machine? I am going to get 512GB version and I wonder if BIOS password combined with hardware encryption is possible ? Currently I have T450s with Samsung 850 PRO 512GB and it encrypts on the fly using BIOS...

thanks for the replies. can you tell me what is the real life battery runtime difference? I need to do some tricks to get the FHD version (which I think I prefer) - buy it in US and get international warranty and notify DELLabout my whereabouts so the warranty will work in Europe.It is gonna be...

Hi guys, I need to buy a new notebook and I am much leaning towards new XPS. The only problem I have is the screen. The version that will be available where I live (no possibility to create a custom build from DELL.com) has only 4K touch screen with antireflective glass @ 400cd/m2. I am used...

May I ask why would you do that? Not so easy for me, I would need to dismantle part of the backplane.

two controllers with 4 ports total can work 12 bays using three ports and three cables tough, right?

x509, I might have misread your post. Thought you actually do know that you have M.2 drive. As you replaced your drive by yourself and this was not an M.2 unit, I can tell that describing my situation might not be so much of a help to you. You should still check SSD placement, BIOS upgrade...

Thanks. So I will just buy another H310 and use three out of four ports I will then have available.

Wonder if someone had experience with onboard SAS SCU controller on Supermicro boards. I need to make a decision whether to return a server or not ( and I would very much like to keep it as the price was good and I have lots of parts to be used in it). Problem is that server I bought has...

x509, I do have T450s and two SSDs installed: Samsung 850PRO 512GB in 2,5" bay and Trascend 256GB in M.2 port. My whole system and software installation partitions are on Samsung so I always boot OK. However, from boot to boot, my Transcdent dissappears. I suspect the port on those thinkpads is...

hi, thanks for your reply. Seems to be: SAS826A rev 1.0 http://www.supermicro.com.tw/manuals/other/BPN-SAS-826A.pdf do you think it will work with less than 3 ports connected to the controller? I am afraid it will not, but it would be nice to get a confirmation.

I am trying to figure out whether chassis like the one below: Chassis Part Number: CSE-826TS-R920LPBP-1 will work with normal two port 8i controller. I call it normal as this server (I bought used) came with ASR-71605 which seems to be quite crappy for ZFS.

thanks for the input, guys. Now I wonder which series to buy - new 7K6 or older, but verified by thousands of users, 7K6000. From what I read 7K6 has higher cache, lower power consumtion and only 4 platters (6TB version) vs 5 in 7K6000. 7K6 0B36039 HGST HUS726T6TALE6L4 3.5in 6000GB 256MB...

so to make it fast and simple - if you were to build your home NAS today, using Synology/QNAP that can use any type od a drive, what drives would you put inside? 512e or 4Kn?

arent 4kN drives signifcantly more reliable by means of error correction? its two years later now. any of you guys had some 4kn experience? Whoever I ask tells me that if a NAS or a system controller and OS supports native 4Kn, I should go and use this format. VERY wierd thing is that they are...

OK, thanks for the link. I need to do some learning + try and see before moving to production.

_Gea I have imported pools and I now have all the names of the pools and filessystems... but after moutning ZFS data is not there. I have tried to look through napp-it manuals to verify my actions vs recommened steps, but I could not find any disaster recovery tutorials. Could you elaborate a...

It's not that server is unavailable. It is refusing connections on both 81 and 82 ports. I did what you say. I even deleted network configuration and re-added it as static one. As this is still lab, I will reinstall napp-it and try to add my datastores and see if I do not lose data.

server is refusing http connections

Hi, After some time of not checking on my ESXi test lab at all, I have an environment with a problem. My napp-it VM was stopped, upon restarting it has received a different IP as its inside DHCP enabled network. After restarting, I cannot access the web interface of napp-it. I can login with SSH...

Yep, its working. I did not have much time to test it, though.

I have tried vSphere client today. I totally forgot its still available for 6.0. I receive an error stating: "unexpected end of OVA file while looking... [] " Outlaw85 I have did a clean install from the scratch, so do not waste your time creating an OVA template. Thanks a lot for your help.

thats what I was afraid. the problem is we need to build a small server that has only two 3,5" slots for HDDs and they must be filled with 6 TB drives. I guess similiar thing to the microSD situation will be with USB sticks..

Hi, anyone found and has experience with using a microSD model card capable of wirting 20MB/s 24/7 5yrs?

Hey guys, anyone was using those? are they good enough for the sustained total 40MB/s of write/read. No database I/O, just streamlined data. I am not sure if the type of writes matters, though. any help appreciated.

Hey, I want to buy HPE DL20 rack server which is super compact. I wonder whether i3 configuration that has GPU integrated in CPU, will allow its usage?

ty

hey, cant load the OVA file. Seems its either incompatible with my EXSi 6.0u2 or both my browers hung up during file decompression. I will proceed with standard install. Thanks for trying
