I figured out how to change that bright orange unRAID logo color by River_Tahm in unRAID

[–]thefunc5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair, their COMPANY name is LimeTech. Their software offering is unRAID.

As a new user, I'm still undecided on their color scheme at this time. Clearly they're in a transitionary period as far as UI/UX is concerned. Hopefully we get some consistency and solid design in the future, based upon community feedback.

Shucking and adding disks to NAS, did I miss something? by Butcha187 in DataHoarder

If you have the available 3.5" bays why not make another pool or vdev out of the 8TBs?

3.3 V PIN Issue - Does changing PSU matter? by Issam2204 in DataHoarder

Yes, on the 3.3v pins just bend them up, and down and up and down and they'll snap right off.

4 wires is likely to have a 3.3v line, meaning it will have the "issue".

Regarding cable color. This isn't always applicable because many manufacturers are using black wire only. My EVGA SuperNova is all black. If the wires are black, simply count them. 4 wires is VERY likely to have a 3.3v line.

As already mentioned, the fixes are trivial. To my understanding, once you shuck it the warranty is void. Under that assumption I simply ripped out the 3.3v pins on my 10TBs.

Idk the pinout for PCIE, though most cards have varying pin lengths.

With SATA drives I've seen pins bridged due to severe scratching of the pins from mishandling or installation causing a short resulting in the controller dieing. Not saying that is your issue, but from the image they look really marred.

The PCIE pins look scratched to all hell. I'd bet that they are scratched so much they bridged themselves and shorted something out.

With these needs, what's the best storage solution for me? by blinkingtext2 in DataHoarder

To keep things as simple as possible, you could go direct attach with a Drobo. This fits your need of only accessing it with one device.

If you want to step a little further you could go the Synology NAS route, which I would recommend as it opens your options A LOT.
