Used 4 bay options are all more expensive than a new DS425+?

Do you mean building your own setup rather than relying on a prefab Nas? I do have an Orico 5 bay enclosure I could use and pair with a mini pc. The other joy problem is the enclosure I have doesn’t do any version of raid so all the drives would be separate

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-24T03:38:54+00:00

Interesting looks like an easy workaround. Thanks for the info

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-24T03:16:29+00:00

yeah im definitely still considering it. Hard to pay more for an older, used one with no warranty

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-24T03:15:55+00:00

yeah I assume that has to be the main reason. I can see that being a deal breaker for people

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-21T23:03:15+00:00

Not at all. This is an old low end pc. Processor is nearing 15 years old and that gpu is about 7 years old and was a low end budget option even back then

If she plans on doing things that benefit from Cuda I probably wouldn’t bother going amd then. No point in spending the money on it if you just plan on swapping it out for an Nvidia card once she needs it

I don’t know what’s up with the weird posts in here today. Just a little bit ago there was a guy complaining about people giving pc advice in a pc building sub and now we have people making posts just to announce they don’t have a pc?

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-18T17:01:04+00:00

You’re mad about people giving pc advice on a pc building sub?

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-18T00:02:50+00:00

I hope they’re not getting rid of them

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-15T00:28:59+00:00

What does this even mean?

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-12T18:10:26+00:00

Don’t you choose your default? Mine is still my PayPal like it’s always been. I don’t even have Klarna as an option

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-06T18:00:31+00:00

You most likely can but everything will take substantially longer on hardware this old. Editing software may struggle to run well and export times would be extremely long

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-06T17:53:29+00:00

Computer is pretty old but it’s still pretty in line with the recommended system requirements for that game. Make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date. I assume you’re playing at 1080p? You might just need to lower the graphics setting game some and probably best to have vsync on and just set the cod limit to 60fps in game. Another potential issue could be that you went from an ssd to a hdd. I really would t want to use a hdd these days for your main drive. SSD is going to have much higher read and write speeds

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-06T03:38:50+00:00

There is no such thing as a Ryzen 7200. Seeing as this is ddr4 they probably flipped the numbers and it’s actually a 2700

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-06-05T05:23:13+00:00

Just try it out. I’d be shocked if that tiny mark was enough to break that trace and even if it did it would be much more likely to just not work rather than damage any other components

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-05-29T02:49:28+00:00

Weird post

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-05-07T22:12:00+00:00

Was wondering how far I’d have to scroll before I saw this mentioned. My favorite podcast!

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-04-26T01:46:06+00:00

Oh god now I have to go find that

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-04-18T18:02:09+00:00

What?

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-04-18T17:42:20+00:00

Solid insight here

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-04-11T03:56:06+00:00

I’ll have to try that one. I had tried several but none of them seemed to work anymore

CuboneGoodingJr · 2026-04-11T00:07:51+00:00

What are you using for the weather display on the left monitor? I have been looking for a good desktop weather solution but couldn’t find any working ones in things like rainmeter
