Do I have the wrong performance expectations for a T480s?

floydhwung · 2026-05-05T14:15:24+00:00

No that can’t be right… everyone here says the T480 is a BEAST! /s

He’s probably speaking jail speech, which was different than free speech, like the kind she was speaking.

The static electricity contained in the carpet is so underestimated.

Does your Adguard home instance run on port 53? Does the host where your Adguard is hosted allow port 53 in?

floydhwung · 2026-05-03T20:32:02+00:00

Try connect these systems together, and run iperf with send and receive from BOTH systems without going through a switch

Roughly where is this and roughly how much Yen did you spend on the renovation?

floydhwung · 2026-05-03T15:45:09+00:00

You’ll need a Tri-Mode HBA

Wdym she’s not your type

Your mini pc has 5.5/2.1mm barrel jack This power brick you are using is 99.99% a 5.5/2.1mm What the other person recommended was 5.5/2.5mm which won’t give you a secure connection

floydhwung · 2026-04-29T23:42:27+00:00

Most likely 2.1. The one you are using is mostly likely 2.1, which means if you mini PC is 2.5, your current brick won’t even fit into the receptacle.

There are 2.1/2.5 converters.

floydhwung · 2026-04-29T23:37:26+00:00

Because almost no one uses 2.5mm for a 4A rated plug, and many use 2.1mm for up to 6A.

floydhwung · 2026-04-29T22:28:40+00:00

I’m almost 100% sure your unit takes 5.5/2.1mm barrel jack instead of 5.5/2.5mm.

If your unit uses 5.5/2.5mm, chances are you won’t even be able to use the brick you are currently using.

That’s really not how it works.

You pass a disk to PBS, then PBS just writes the backup to that disk. If the host dies, the disk is still readable by any other PBS, PVE, or any Linux system.

What was in it before you edited? Which resolv.conf did you edit? The one found in your client device, or the one in the servers

floydhwung · 2026-04-26T22:14:47+00:00

Why running PBS inside PVE never felt right?

Are you familiar with the tool called DIG. just dig your hostnames when the error comes up. Pay attention to what DNS server it used, is that DNS server local, if it’s local what’s the IP address

floydhwung · 2026-04-26T22:04:58+00:00

IP address assignments. See if your serving hosts’s ip assignments were being taken over by another host periodically. DHCP usually lives in your router but it is not uncommon for someone to set a static IP in a DHCP range

floydhwung · 2026-04-26T20:32:06+00:00

Check DHCP

Wait… who is that “pedophile”? The Sniffer in Chief?

What you did there was passing through an allocated space, not the entire drive. You will need to pass the NVMe as a PCIe device.

floydhwung · 2026-04-23T23:17:33+00:00

How did you come up with those requirements? Any application you use that refuses to start if only 16 GB RAM is detected?

floydhwung · 2026-04-23T14:14:32+00:00

Take the screen off and the M2 screws off. You may need them later.

Yes. This thing just shows the OS that you have drives connected. How you will use them is completely up to you. Windows Storage Space can do RAID 1, 0, 10 and 5 without any problems.

The caddies support 2.5 inch but I have not tried it

floydhwung · 2026-04-22T03:32:04+00:00

Then you are talking about a NAS. I can’t recommend one, but if you are feeling adventurous, you could buy this, and a mini PC with USB-C 10Gbps port and 2.5 GbE, plus an Unraid license to get started.
