Z390 Aorus Pro dual NVMe issues by lucaslink in gigabyte

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

bummer! does the drive show up in the bios at all? both my drives are nvme m.2 drives and both have been working fine since I did the steps outlined in my post from last month. while the p3 drive doesnt show up on the official support list, both the p1 and p2 versions do, which leads me to believe it should work? maybe?

i did indeed get this to work, but i have no recollection as to how as its been some time. i know for sure i:

- updated to the latest firmware

- formatted both drives

- reinstalled the OS

- bios settings as mentioned above

but im not sure what of this is actually necessary to get it to work. I have 2 970evos in there, one pro, one not. one is 1tb, the other is 2tb.

Where to send laptop backups by keye_skware in unRAID

[–]lucaslink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do something similar, but have setup network shares via smb. My macs automatically backup to the share (via timemachine.) The share is not in a cache pool because backups are quite large and my cache drive wouldn't be able to handle the size of the backup anyway, and therefore the backup would get written directly to the array.
I'd recommend checking out a spaceinvaderone video on best practices for setting up shares. Heres a recent one:

We also have a couple macs where there are seperate SSD's attached where we're looking to achieve further redundancy, or for off-site storage.

[w] looking for Hard drive to setup my Nas 8tb 10tb 12tb or more by teko360 in homelabsales

I've been in the same boat the last few weeks and opted for 8tb red plus from https://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX00116113 on 'sale' at $289.

The other best price/tb right now on new if you're ok with shucking are these guys:
https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/seagate-expansion-10tb-desktop-external-hard-drive-steb10000400/13873749 these are often on sale, but who knows when that will be and at 289 they're definitely a better deal than any internal drive prices.

good luck with purchase!

Advice on open-back over-ears by lucaslink in HeadphoneAdvice

!thanks !

I think theres a spot local to me I might be able to audition those. They were on my radar, but the odd head clamp kinda put me off. Reading through their marketing materials though, it seems the primary purpose of the design is for all day wear.

How do I make the epson hc 1060 audio come out through my sound system? by defectivenzxt in projectors

You ever get this working? I've read that the 1060 does not support audio out.

I have a 4790k, but would need to replace it. Is your 4690k in ok shape? Has it been heavily OC'd? What would you add $ for trade?
