This seems more like a server with a built-in NAS, but i agree it’s probably way overkill for most, though it seems like an awesome product at first glance. It’s like they took every component and cranked it up to 11. I wish we saw more of this in the consumer electronics segment and less “let’s strip or nerf everything we possibly can before sales tank. Our margins are so great this quarter!”
I wonder if he’s one of those believers that the destruction of Israel will usher in the end times and Jesus’ return to earth and has the biggest boner right now over escalating this conflict.
This is one change (which isn’t the cause of OP’s problem) that they announced months ago. I’ve been using it for well over a decade and while I have had major issues with it in the past going so far as to setup Emby and buying a lifetime license for that, I would hardly say that they’re “constantly changing allowed abilities.”
Most people’s issue with them is that they focus too much on adding new stuff that nobody asked for while ignoring longtime bugs. I can’t recall a time they’ve ever locked anything behind a paywall that wasn’t a brand new feature prior to this.
OP has a misconfigured server and isn’t connecting to their server over LAN.
Why not 3D print something for it? I printed this to make a digital photo frame with a Pi 4 and the official 7" Pi touch display. https://www.printables.com/model/44218-7-touchscreen-case-for-raspberry-pi-4-internal-fan
Printing it with something strong should help keep it safe in an accident though you’ll need to create a mounting solution.
There were a couple other posts this morning to what appears to be another pretend news website. I wonder what the deal is. Ad revenue farming?
Yeah the rapid pace of technological innovation these days is really astounding at times.
I broke down and googled it and it’s a reusable menstrual cup, so I think my guess was the closest.
Depends on how far you throw it.
Like a Frisbee?
I went through the exact same situation with my 20 year old music collection and MusicBrainz Picard and unfortunately this is just the state of music piracy even now as things are rarely tagged correctly or come from compilation albums, sample albums, or are just obscure and don’t have the proper tags available on the service. This is why I don’t mind paying for music streaming even though I selfhost most other media formats because you can put in days of work tagging songs and still have a jumbled mess at the end (Picard’s tagging template is also a huge PITA to use with some obscure legacy language).
Is there something specific in there you wanted to reference?
What do you classify as independent?
Enact blockades in international waters?
I think the Define 5 is a good option as well. I bought the 6 in 2018 because it was new, was white, and only like $99 at the time and it’s served me well. Every couple of years I’d buy some more drive trays as my pool filled up and I needed more space.
I just rebuilt my whole system a couple of months ago but kept the case because it works so well and there isn’t much on the market like it without getting into fullsize cases. It’s nearly silent even with 5 fans and 9 HDDs inside. It sits about 2 feet from me on my desk and I only hear a tiny hum from the fans.
PC Part Picker has filters that will let you set all your requirements and show you what’s available. Since you want ECC and low cost, you might be better off finding options on PCPartPicker and then looking for those items used on ebay.
If you don’t have a case already, you might check out Fractal Design. They have several cases for lots of 3.5" drives. I have a Define 6 and it holds like 12 3.5" and 4 2.5" in a midtower format and it’s constructed really well. You will need to buy additional drive trays though as they only come with 4 I think.
Comcast has done some wizardry to finally allow decent upload speeds as of late. For years I’ve had 900Mbps down and 15Mbps up but with whatever upgrade they’ve done, I’m now at 900/200 which is decent enough. I honestly don’t even need all this download bandwidth and would be happy with 500/500 but most people aren’t running media servers and hundreds of torrents so they don’t dedicate much to upload bandwidth.
Technology has continued to progress but I think many cable providers are capping at around 100 mbps. I could be wrong.
I think most are offering as high as 1-2Gbps (asymmetrical) with cable. That’s what Comcast is offering in our area. With 100Mbps CenturyLink DSL being the only alternative.
How big are these ZFS snapshots compared to the stored data size? 1:1?
I’ve never seen a person who looked more like a demon in a skin suit than Kenneth Copeland.
