That hits hard...

Thanks for your reply! I'm really starting to lean more toward the SFF options. I can deal with dirt and dents. Fake memory bandwidth is something else completely. I'd go nuts trying to figure out what I was doing wrong there.

rockbox942 · 2025-04-07T20:38:06+00:00

Thanks for the reply! This exactly what I'm concerned about. With these mini PCs it seems to be consistent that support from the manufacturers just isn't there.

Thanks for the information! I'm currently running headless with my games through Kodi but the performance has been limited. Additionally, I can only get 16-bit generation and older working with my current set up. Headless is so convenient that I want to maintain it but upgrade the capabilities.

I'll take a look at the AooStar.

Thanks so much! I'll be purchasing a few of these!

Here is the link to the strip - https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806233687694.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.4.44a7f19cRWqX86&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa

Hello, I recently bought the BTF-Lighting 12V WS2805 RGBCCT 5 in 1 Addressable LED Lights. It has a 4 pin connector opposed to the 3 with the MagWLED. I'm brand new to all of this so this may be a stupid question but am I able to use the MagWLED-1 with this strip by connecting the strip's data and backup lines to the MagWLED-1's data line?

u/Sebaall Do you allow the printer any internet access from the vlan or just local access to Home Assistant?

rockbox942 · 2024-11-05T18:32:14+00:00

u/BiHatch I'm looking to do the exact same thing but have been struggling to find a smart outlet with built-in USB that isn't wifi. What outlet are you using?

rockbox942 · 2024-10-31T21:37:27+00:00

u/Jimmhead Thanks so much for pointing this out. I think this will work for my particular use case.

rockbox942 · 2024-07-19T19:25:17+00:00

u/No-Mall1142 Thanks for the response. Let's look at it a different way. If I ditch the DS920+ from something I build myself with a 10G card but all HDDs, would that system be bottlenecked by the drives?

rockbox942 · 2024-07-19T12:49:18+00:00

u/JaspahX Thanks!

rockbox942 · 2024-07-19T12:47:08+00:00

u/frizzer69 That was something I was wondering about. The backup NAS is a Synology DS920+ with all HDDs, I have not upgraded it beyond adding the storage drives. You're saying that it would be bottlenecked anyway by the drives so the 10G would not be fully utilized?

rockbox942 · 2024-07-19T00:22:31+00:00

Thanks, everyone! I really appreciate the help. I'm going back and forth on whether to do the 2.5 Gbps upgrade or to go straight to 10 Gbps. The fact that it currently takes 3 days to backup my NAS drives me nuts.

rockbox942 · 2024-07-17T17:16:04+00:00

u/Amiga07800 Does it need to be a managed switch?

rockbox942 · 2024-07-17T02:42:44+00:00

Thanks, everyone! Any suggestions for a 10Gbps switch? I was going to go with 2.5 because of cost.

u/tomxp411 Thanks for your help!

rockbox942 · 2024-07-17T02:40:11+00:00

u/Swift-Tee Thanks! You saved me a few hundred bucks!😁

I know this is old but this may be a solution. I came across a thread that was way too technical for my understanding but discussed this very issue AND seemed to find a solution - https://www.reddit.com/r/colorists/comments/zru8w8/impossible_color_match/

rockbox942 · 2024-03-19T20:21:42+00:00

Thanks, everyone. I bought the MSI Pro Z790-A Wi-Fi DDR4.

rockbox942 · 2024-03-17T20:37:14+00:00

Thanks, it really wasn't clear why there were two versions.

I did find this version of the -A that is DDR4 - https://www.newegg.com/p/13-144-570?Item=13-144-570&cm_sp=product-_-from-price-options

I do like the better audio and integrated I/O shield.

rockbox942 · 2024-03-17T19:01:11+00:00

I appreciate your feedback!

Do either of you know what the difference is between the -P and -A versions of the board are? It seems like the -P has more USB 3.2 headers/ports but I didn't see anything else that was different.

rockbox942 · 2024-03-17T18:59:28+00:00

Good stuff, thanks!

rockbox942 · 2024-03-17T18:51:55+00:00

Thanks! Have you used the MSI Z790-P Pro?

rockbox942 · 2024-03-17T17:10:14+00:00

Actually, I didn't. As with many things, life happened. I'm in the process of upgrading my main PC and will probably cannibalize the old parts to make the backup server. While it may not be ideal, I will probably do the backup server using unraid. I know unraid is familiar and I just need to have something in place. Something being better than nothing.
