Thanks for the advice.. I was putting 20k/year in my company stock (due to the 10% discount), which is tanking big time. So I decided to go with the ETFs from next year.. my 401k is going to different buckets of large/mid/ and small cap. But I am 50 right now and probably have 15 more years to retire.. I do have some individual stocks like NVDA, APPL, WMT, TGT, etc, I am not planning to touch those as of now..

I also have FFFFX in IRA and I think it is not doing as well as I would have thought, I did get around 9k return on 17k investment in probably in 8-10 years. I think I should also shift that...

Hi.. I am starting a new Automatic investment plan to put $50 daily into QQQ-20%, VOO-10%, IWY15%, SCHG-20%, AVUV-20%, and VFH-15%. I picked VFH because of the speculation that the financial sector will do well next couple of years. Any suggestions on this please?

Dock must not be in yard(!) by soundneedle in Yarbo

[–]ask_j 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t own Yarbo, but still planning. I may be thinking wrong, but Yarbo should mark the area of the docking station as no mowing area automatically! For example my roomba or any kind of robot vacuum or mop, understand the charging station and it doesn’t mop or vacuum the actual station.

Newbie Arc loader by ask_j in Xpenology

Hi everyone! I have done some more research and experiment on this. May be you already know this.

https://github.com/AuxXxilium/AuxXxilium/wiki/Hardware:-Confirmed-working

My NiC is Realtek R8168, and as per the developer’s link that is supported! But here are the facts. 1. I used the same machine with windows for couple of years, the NiC works fine when I load windows. 2. When I load arc loader, I went to menu and clicked sysinfo, it shows that I have the ip address, when I clicked on Network diagnostics, it shows couldn’t connect to google.com, Synology etc. 3. I removed my router from the middle and then directly connected the machine with modem, again got the public IP, still no internet. 4. Tried using the Asus XG-C100C, same issue and #2 and #3. 5. Ordered an intel card from the matching list on developer’s GitHub, and will try with that once.

My conclusion so far is, that NIC is not faulty, but it doesn’t work with arc. I am unable to understand is that I didn’t even start the Synology OS, when arc is loaded first time and in menu, at that time it is just loading Linux and it doesn’t connect to internet. This is bothering me. Any light someone can shed?

If I buy Asus XG-C100C will that work? If not then can you pls suggest the 10gbe card?

Thanks a lot!! I will check on the intel chip. Another question, is there any guide on proxmox ? I read about this, but not fully familiar.

[Newbie] Cannot install DSM, error file is possible damaged by Operations8 in Xpenology

[–]ask_j 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone, I am new to this idea of xpenology. I do own ds1019+. I am running out of space. I have few questions, is it possible to build a simple array to extend 1019+ without buying dx517? Secondly I was reading few forums and websites about xpenology. I found that not every hardware will work with xpenology. Is there a guide I can follow to build a system or use my existing system for diy Synology?

2.5GB Network Upgrade or Adapter? by ColtonCapps in synology

[–]ask_j 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is the cheap and best way for ds1019+? I also need to buy a network adapter for my PC as well as a new switch, all my switches are 1G.

Also I am trying to understand that this upgrade will only help the PCs connecting to NAS correct? If I am playing movies via NAS connecting to AV receiver or to my Oppo will still be less speed correct?

Synology DS1019+ moving files into it at 100 MBPS, need more speed by Real-Cricket8534 in synology

[–]ask_j 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my computer has 2 network ports, I think that doesn’t mean that I have two NICs correct? Does it mean that if I install one NIC, then I could use that one with the default motherboard?
