  • I didn't notice any breakdown of the paste. It typically dries out over time once applied, this was still the same consistency throughout its life (in the tube)

  • Yep, I had the side panel off as I just replaced the thermal paste on the GPU and had to snap a pic.

  • I bought one for a new PC I was going to build, that didn't happen so I installed it in my server, then I got this and the obvious choice was to pick up another.

  • Honestly, the ezflash jr is the cheaper option and has some amazing fatures, although the project seems to have been abandoned, they are selling the cart still, the beta FW let's the RTC to work.

  • You would only likely get caught if you either do something stupid or someone tells Microsoft or Adobe with evidence, even then, the process to grass on them is a ballache, so if someone does actually take the time to do it, then you must have pissed them off so bad you might deserve it.

    Why not use FOSS alternatives, or at least say you do?

    If your stealing assets and IP, its just a matter of when you get caught, not if.

  • Windowless side panels also help with what LEDs are forced onto me.

  • Monsgeek M1 with Boba U4T switches, great for long typing sessions and for gaming. I have 45g springs as a lighter spring makes the bump more deifned.

  • I've gone with Unraid and consumer level hardware (intel i3 12100 and 16gb of standard ddr4 ram) the only "server hardware" I have, is an LSI HBA card that's in IT mode so I can connect more HDDs.

    I'm even used SMR drives in my array, just use a good CMR drive for parity and the biggest SSD you can get for your cache drive and you will be good to go.

  • In use an i3 12100 with whatever cheep motherboard from a good brand and 16gb of ram (it would be fine with 8gb, but DDR4 ram is cheep so more the better) if you look at ZFS and a real raid, it gets expensive quick, I use Unraid which is ideal if you have SMR drives and/or different sized HDDs. You can get cheep LSI HBM cards off eBay in IT mode which is perfect to connect HDDs to (my mobo only has 4 sata ports)

  • That's how I started, when I upgraded my PC my old PC became a dedicated Plex server running Linux, then the CPU gave up after 8 years (3 years as a 24/7 sever) then bought a PC to run unraid. Its a slippery slope, I started on 16tb of media 6 months ago, I'm now on 24tb...

    December 2023 update... Now 30tb

  • Windows 10 IoT enterprise LTSC and disable telemetry. Don't bother with 3rd party apps for privacy unless you are 100% sure they are safe.

    And never install from an ISO that's been tampered with. Get directly from Microsoft.

  • That looks incredible! what is that cooler? Did you 3D print the case yourself?

  • Log on to your router, that will show what's connected.

  • You've forgotten all those extensions which look for discount codes at checkout on online stores, in think "Honey" was one of them.

  • Its overkill for the i3 12100, but its on 24/7 so might as well keep it as cool as possible.

  • The motherboard has what I need for a home server, the case is big enough for all the hard drives. A micro ATX case would not have nearly enough bays.

  • Vice Admiral Stirling, please can you explain why you have been tormenting over 1000 episodes of a cartoon called "the one price" and from a Russian website? You understand that you are on a Vanguard class submarine and are commander of the fleet?

    THE ONE PIECE IS REAL!
