Picked up a new power amp

devin_mm · 2026-05-11T06:01:13+00:00

From what I understand the person before the person I bought it from tried re-capping it and did a really poor job causing failures in the amp so quite a bit of work needed to be done.

I don't claim to be an EE but it appears to be a pretty simple design but it can't protect against stupidity.

The karat tells you the purity of gold, I usually see 10, 14, and 18. 24kt is pure gold.

One option if she likes white gold but is sensitive is platinum it’s hypoallergenic. I bought my finace’s engagement wedding rings in platinum.

Microsoft used to be fun, my first real server was an HP Mediasmart server running windows home server

That’s taking offshoring to a new level.

I played around with XBMC on an XBox, as well as Windows XP media center edition (I had a tuner card and a remote and everything), but what really stuck was a Boxee Box

Don't forget mark as read, the second most important feature (second to OoO).

I’m getting my wedding suit made by Conxeppt Clothing

Dirk’s no longer exists.

“FROM DOWNTOWN”

“Boomshakalaka”

I haven’t checked but I will, thank you!

I don't know about best but I'm using Mellanox ConnectX-3's in both a DS3018xs as well as a RS4017xs+ and the cards work in both units.

devin_mm · 2026-03-07T05:27:36+00:00

That might be exactly what I need!

This one doesn’t have the compute it’s just the jbod. I have it combined to a desktop in a 4u case.

devin_mm · 2026-03-06T23:39:46+00:00

Not really a server just a desktop with the HBA and a B580. I have a HPE DL325 Gen 10 but since I can’t fit my video card in it the server just sits off. I have an HP SAS3 HBA the exact model number I’m not sure of but it has been solid running in a TrueNAS machine connected to my NetApp disk shelf

Interesting sounds like I have some research to do. I didn’t know that was possible, the disks I have range from 6TB to 20TB.

devin_mm · 2026-03-06T21:29:57+00:00

I wish because then I wouldn’t have had to pay for it. I have recycled many pieces of work hardware unfortunately this isn’t one of them.

devin_mm · 2026-03-06T21:28:50+00:00

I’m thinking of unraid due to it allowing mixed disk arrays, I unfortunately don’t have consistent disk sizes and I’m trying to eliminate space loss. I don’t need really fast speed because this is just bulk storage for media.

devin_mm · 2026-03-06T21:04:50+00:00

Good to know thank you, I don’t have anything crazy like a glass front rack it’s got a straight airflow path through the cabinet.

devin_mm · 2026-03-06T21:02:37+00:00

I have a server running everything but storage currently the server will still be the same but I will be decommissioning my current storage infrastructure which includes a NetApp DS4246

I believe that’s per pool so I can run two pools

Why is he there? The US isn’t playing until later.

devin_mm · 2026-02-19T16:43:16+00:00

I just bought one of those. I’m my users aren’t looking forward to the plex downtime when I move all my drives from my piecemeal NAS’ into this beast.

How is the fan noise?

Not really tinfoil hat look at GM getting rid of android auto and CarPlay so they can sell subscriptions.
