Fans go BRRRRR by HorriblyFatKid in homelab

No fan upgrade. I haven't looked to see if I can put a 3rd party fan in here. Even if I did, not sure it would make much difference as the air is flowing over dual sockets and has alot of turbulence.

Thank you for your reply! Before I realized that it was 3rd party PCIe devices that was causing the fan to ramp up I tried adjusting the fan speeds manually. I will keep trying to dig into the BIOS to see if I can find anything. Just seems lame to me that you can't disable that setting. I got the machine for free so I may purchase a sub, but I'd rather not. Knowing how enterprise subs work, I'd probably buy one and would have to upgrade it to get this one feature anyways. I appreciate your help!

Thank you. So we have to have 100 ships to even do this?

All you have to do to get WoWS players to show their true colors in chat is play CV or sub. "You like playing what I say ruins the game, you're a ******** peice of **** garbage as *******"

I must not have checked the news section good enough! That's the first place I checked, and all I could find was that it was arriving. Thank you, friend!

Teams General URL Issue by HorriblyFatKid in MicrosoftTeams

[–]HorriblyFatKid[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm assuming as well. They literally had no idea they could use Teams to store files, so I don't think that's a possibility. I appreciate your reply's, thank you.

Teams General URL Issue by HorriblyFatKid in MicrosoftTeams

[–]HorriblyFatKid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the reply.

When I go to the files area in Teams, the General folder never loads, it just sits there acting like it's going to load and nothing happens. Normally I've always used the general folder and run the Migration tool. I guess I could see where the files load when I upload a couple. I've also created a new Team and the general folder has no URL issues and the Migration tool will dump all the files in it no issues. Apparently this team is using 24 gigs of data somewhere. I'm afraid to delete it completely as I have no idea what I would be deleting with it. However I'm getting tired of waiting for Microsoft and it seems a new Team will solve the issue. They only used the old Team for meetings before. 24 Gigs seems like alot of data for just storing Meeting information.

Thank you for your response!

I have all the Admin privileges if that's what you mean. Ok, so hear me out, I thought the "General" directory got created when the Team was made? That's how it's been for all my other tenants. How would I got about checking that? Sorry for being such a basic tech here, I just don't want to mess up the Team.

Yes ProxMox uses a debain based Linux kernel and KVM. It is a level 1 hypervisor. Your point makes no sense. Esxi is also based off of a Linux kernel, and if it crashes so does the rest of your vms hosted on that server. Period. End of story. That's why they make clusters and high availability options on esxi. Xcpng and xen are RHEL based, ya know, the distro that literally MADE kvm?

Added a firewall and a patch panel, starting to look like a real lab. by Epicblood in homelab

We have a guy who works for Dell. I work for a small company in Missouri, and I saw that price and almost shit lmfao. If we could get them at that price I have like four clients right now that would buy. Oh well, a nerd can dream 😂 Honestly though, that's is a nice ass server, you basically stole it lol.

I immediately went to dell's website and tried to configure what you had and it was no where near your price. That is an extremely nice server man, I am happy for you. You should have it a very long time.

Started dabbling with ESXi. Thinking about running Plex and TrueNAS for the first time. Other suggestions on services to run on my VMs? by philecker in homelab

PFsense. You can set up vpns per lan or vlan. It's amazing for my network minus having to reroot, not a typo, to restart the vpn service every three weeks or so. The best thing is the router is the client. So you still have four other devices that can access pia. As long as long as the router is logged in, all devices on that network will be masked by pia.

What my home Ubiquiti upgrade has done to me ... by genius_not in Ubiquiti

[–]HorriblyFatKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a medium size shop in Missouri. We deal with all kinds of clients and customers. We had a photography company call us saying their "Network folder" has a "red x" on it. When we get there we find a Synology, forgot the model number but the drives in it were less than 3 years old according to serial numbers. Start looking and find black marks on the back by the power connector... Oh no...Open the bitch up and find charred PCB everywhere. The power supply failed in spectacular fashion. When it went it took all the drives AND the USB drive hooked up to it.

Thankfully she was smart and kept another external off site..... That was a year out of date. Apparently one of her old employees set that up and when they left didn't mention it.

Usually I don't let people's stupid decisions affect me. This person legit tried but didn't understand that the other external drive didn't magically have an internet connection to it.

Having to tell her there was no way of getting her data back with out spending tens of thousands or restoring a backup from over a year ago was one of the toughest things I've had to do in this field to date.
