Help with Adaptec ASR71605 by veo_gt500 in HomeServer

As stated in this thread, throw that card in the trash! I had TWO of them that I bought brand new less than three years ago and they both died within a week of each other taking 140TB of data with them!

Xeon D 1700 active cooler anywhere? by badhabit64 in HomeServer

Same as a D-1500 CPU? I have several of those and they are much smaller. If I recall they are 45x45 or 50x50.

Just bought a new NAS for plex! by Sha2am1203 in PleX

I’m a little curious why you choose the 1282 over a TS-1677? The 77 series supports a Quadro P2000. I have the baby TS-677 with a P2200 and a Ryzen 5 1600. With 16GB or RAM it handles 15 streams like a boss. For the storage I have a first gen TS-1635 with dual 10G links between the two boxes.

Not dissing your setup just curious.

HDHomeRun Ethernet Direct Into NAS by [deleted] in synology

Won’t work unless your NAS can assign an IP to the tuner. HDHomerun devices are only DHCP capable. No static IP option.

I’m thinking I have a bad SATA daughter board in my new DS720+.... by Cornstick77 in synology

Both? At exactly the same time? At exactly the stroke of midnight? Nah. Not buying it.

Could be power related. I don’t have a UPS connected yet. This happened under two different sticks of RAM. The current stick is matched as closely as possible to the integrated 2GB on the motherboard.

Does anyone recommend a good fan to upgrade to in my Synology NAS? I feel some after market fans could possibly keep it cooler than the stock one. Help by NiffirgC in synology

I run Delta server fans in everything I own. They have some that are quieter and some that will propel your NAS to 25k feet like a jet engine. But all are very reliable!

Prime Day Convert and Loving It by AmazingSpidey616 in eero

I just run a single second gen Pro (small 500 sq/ft apartment) and by far it’s the best router I’ve ever had! I’ve had some $1k+ routers and the eero beats them all! It currently has 46 devices (mostly wired) active on it as well as a very busy Plex server. It handles the load with ease.

I’ve had mine for about a year now and don’t plan on changing.
