So the hard drive dock is just to manage your bare drives or are you looking to pull the drives from your externals?
Do you have spare sata ports in your machine? You might want to consider something like a 3/4/5 in one bay. If you have room in your case for a 3x5.25 hard drive cage these...
As a followup, this is the build I ended up going with. I got a pretty good price on the storage. Everything else was pretty average in price. I'll be adding a cache drive that is a WD Green 2TB as soon as I move the data off it onto the new array.
Summary:
E31241V3, 16GB ECC RAM, 16TB...
They are about 5 years old. If they pass the unraid preclear step I will probably add them back into the array.
If I want to run a couple of virtual machines, I don't think 4GB is going to be enough. Thoughts?
Good point on the CPU horsepower. I want to strike a good balance between...
So I have been doing my research for a while on putting together a new all in one machine.
My old setup was a WHS v1 with 3x2TB drives which has since run out of space and is a bit long in the tooth being about 5 yrs old.
I already have replacement drives on the way because I got a good...
I am looking to replace my old setup of WHS v1 with 3x2TB WD Green drives. Along with this I used older SageTV extenders.
I am evaluating my options for the holiday sales and trying to decide the pros/cons of building 2 separate boxes, one with unraid just for storage and another to act as...
I already had adaptive set as a global setting but the culprits were:
1. Having hardware acceleration enabled in the Logitech software for my G13/G15
2. Metro apps not being closed when you drag them to the bottom of the screen. You need to drag them to the bottom of the screen and then...
Thanks for the tips, I'll start checking app settings tonight for hardware acceleration. I'm using a Sidewinder mouse with a Logitech G13 and G15 keyboard.
As for monitors, I am only running one.
I setup a new rig last weekend and am checking on my temps and they seem to be a bit high.
Ambient is 79F/26C and these are reference coolers.
At idle the gpu fans are running at 38% and 60C. This seems extraordinarily high. While running BF4 on ultra the fans kick up to about 55% and...
That's what I ended up doing. You can mount a 120mm fan in the duct to feed air between the cards. The ROG Hero seems to have the slots setup so there is already more spacing. The duct would have been more useful if the slots were sandwiched together like on other motherboards.
I was trying to finish up my new build with the parts listed in the title:
ASUS ROG Hero motherboard
HAF X Case
SLI'd GTX 780Ti
I cannot seem to get the VGA duct that sits behind the hard drive cage to fit with this configuration. The middle plastic bar on the duct sits directly over the...
