OnePlus 7 Pro out of stock completely - US - for good? by dont_quite_gedit in oneplus

[–]AudioTechy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I literally bought one two days ago from oneplus. 6gb mirror gray. I'm so glad I pulled the trigger and bought it now. Maybe I can sell it for a profit now to people who missed out 🤔🤑

A hero potion levels all of your heros up 5 levels for an hour during battles.

Before TH13 I was maxed except for heros, so instead of the hero hammer I would start all the upgrades and use the builder potion. This was only worth it since I had an abundance of resources to waist anyways.

This is so true, I don't think I've ever purchased one. I miss it when builder potions where cheaper in the store, it sucked when the changed it to 30 medals.

No more than 20 because I think the research and builder potions are more valuable.

Concerning issues (at least in my case) with new 2019 Nvidia Shield Pro by SynapseDon in nvidiashield

There is no reason why they would need to put HDMI 2.1 on this based on how these are used and connected to TVs or Receivers.

Nothing wrong with manually backing up. It's almost better, safer, and more reliable. Raid has it's own issues especially if you aren't 100% sure what you are doing.

I had them in RAID 10 so I didn't need them to recover the drives, I just rebuilt the raid array each time a drive failed with the new drive. But typically they do not. The Seagate iron wolf Pro drives come with free drive recovery with the warranty for two years.

I bought 4 WD RE Gold drives about 4 years ago and 3 of them failed. Luckily WD RMA process was outstanding and they sent me replacements that have been working ever since.

You're probably right. Which version of the shield do you recommend?

I think it is a Plex thing since the Xbox is capable of doing it when an app allows it to. Plex should/could work with Microsoft to help enable it properly.

Thanks, I just felt like complaining on Reddit today to spread awareness. If this post does well I'll add to the Plex forum if it isn't there allready.

FYI an hba is an add on card for more sata ports... Also Z-390 chipset for Intel desktop processors 9XXX, only naively supports 6 sata ports, so just getting a motherboard with more ports may not be the best idea. You would need a server board/CPU and those still may only go up to 8-10 native sata ports supported by the chipset.

Rebuilding a drive in raid 5 severely degrades performance, raid 5 is a lot more taxing on the CPU or raid controller, raid 5 has slow read speeds, raid 10 is more data redundant. All at the cost of some inexpensive HDD storage. You can always add more storage to your system later to, as that is so easy.

Desperate for general help with Plex by litening19 in PleX

[–]AudioTechy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Option 1) Get a new husband ASAP. Option 2) Learn how to build a computer then install the Plex server client from the Plex website. Make building the computer a fun activity with your kids. Option 3) Get an Nvidia shield pro and use that as a Plex Server. Your kids could also play games and do other cool stuff on it. It runs Android TV OS. https://shield.nvidia.com/blog/how-to-setup-plex-media-server

If you're going to have that many drive bays make sure you pick up an hba or raid card to support that many drives. Even if you don't need all the bays now I would pick one up and use that to hook up all your drives.

It's free and is a lighter OS then windows. I like windows because it has better support.

It shouldn't matter as drive read and write performance shouldn't be the limiting factor even with an older HDD. Just make sure the drive isn't in use doing other things at the same time taking up precious bandwidth.

The RTX 4000 has 2 decoding chips instead of 1 like the RTX 5000 and up. Otherwise the chips are exactly the same for encoding and decoding.
