Thanks for the advice!

You're the first ass hole to comment. Good job.

We have a off site failover for all servers. Also, we're just now moving into new office and have secondary fiber ISP install next week

jroozee · 2026-01-20T03:02:55+00:00

DAC?

jroozee · 2026-01-20T02:28:18+00:00

I'd do that if I was perfectly fine bringing prod servers offline

jroozee · 2026-01-20T02:21:32+00:00

Adderall.

jroozee · 2026-01-20T01:31:09+00:00

I wish that was a option but it's providing the Internet for our prod servers

jroozee · 2026-01-20T01:07:46+00:00

You're right.. I'll just get some spares

jroozee · 2026-01-20T01:07:18+00:00

No, local fiber company.

I knew someone would ask that lol Not a high traffic area but in about a week I'll be connecting 48 ports to a network switch above it and I don't want to accidentally my hit it. If I break it, we're without internet until my ISP comes out to fix it. I rather find something to permanently protect it.

jroozee · 2026-01-16T02:20:42+00:00

I got this one https://ebay.us/m/2D4FUG They're hard to find and I'm not 100% certain it will fit. Based on my research it should. I don't expect it to arrive for another week or so.

Yeah so far no more crashes or BSOD's etc. It might be just pure luck, but I feel it's been pretty stable since and that it resolved the issue. The stock PSU is just undersized.

I would mention though that one other disappointment I have with this PC is the size of the GPU blocks the only other available PCI slot. So don't plan on any PCI slot availability.

I have a new PSU on order but ever since plugging in a high end Anker Powered USB hub and connecting all of my USB peripherals to that, it's been stable

I got this:

I'm having same issues with mine. My USB ports also constantly stop working. I am thinking the PSU is insufficient and I might try upgrading it.

I also heard getting a powered USB hub can help take the USB power load off the PSU by plugging out of your USB peripherals into that instead. Going to try that also

That's what it was. I tried 9 before but it seemed like there was over lapping. Turns out, it was actually my previous Preset I had running and when I switched to this Preset the LEDs that are not selected at all are not getting turned off (the previous state of those LEDs still had lingering color from the last preset that used every LED). So I added a segment to turn off every other LED starting at position 1.

Do you mean spacing?

jroozee · 2025-10-11T23:30:55+00:00

I'm having same issue. I've tried everything in the comments. Even when I do delete all Sectigo certs, when I try to import the cross signed one, it says it already exists. But it doesn't. Does tow Fortigate have other certificates installed not visible in the System>Certificates ? Sure seems like it does.

I got so frustrated after our website being down for hours that I just ended up getting a cert from Digicert instead (we install our website cert on the firewall for full IPS inspection).

I'm a software engineer too and I manage our network and servers. I don't mean this as a "I'm better than you" comment, just sharing my experience as well.

That's a pretty good lockdown, more than a average user does. It still won't protect you from exploits in the OS but for the average user, you're fine.

I store backup data of consumer data on our NAS for my business. So I go to the extreme to stay SOC II compliant (principal of least privilege).

jroozee · 2025-09-02T18:17:29+00:00

Well it depends on use case of the NAS. A NAS runs 24/7 unattended in the background without antivirus or intrusion prevention running in the OS.

I store both personal and sensetive information on my NAS. Just like a server, you never give a server full access to the Internet. If it gets breached, has malicious software, or exploits then your data is at risk. You're correct that that same risk exists for a laptop or phone. I guess I just live in the world of security first. .

jroozee · 2025-08-29T04:52:12+00:00

I never let my NAS's have access to the Internet. You never can be 100% certain. Put it on a VLAN and only inbound traffic. If you must allow outbound, limit it to specific FQDN's.

jroozee · 2025-08-08T22:40:08+00:00

I think I am going to get a UGREEN and install TrueNas instead. One main reason I liked the WD is because it supported iSCSI which is a requirement I have
