If you go spinning rust without SSD cache the whole system will not saturate a 10Gb connection. Just check the product datasheet. There's…

There's no comparison as they solve different problems. You pay extra for the software bundle, sleek package and support, which you don't…

Technically speaking you can run 10gbe at full speed on PCIe 3.0 x2. x8 cards generally because they’re old and running on PCIe 2.0.…

Mine is a Dell variant of Intel X540-T2 with a fan. Most Intel cards would work, so does Mellanox. Some Emulux would do, too. Those are…

Me, too. I bought 2x Synology 4GB ECC RAM for DS1819+ and it generates incompatibility error. But it doesn't stop you from using it and ECC…

It's just that 1) UGreen DXP8800 Plus is US$899 ***pre***-order via Indiegogo which is dangerously close to DS1821+ in this deal, and 2)…

Yes... when hardware-accelerated transcoding/encoding/decoding is not required. If you only stream locally and has smooth home network,…

Yes and no. It's just a smart switch to replace your wall switch and make "dumb" lights smart. I know that Tuya switches on custom firmware…

I’d rather wait whatever it can be than having the order cancelled. But I guess cancel instead of fulfilling is easier on their side.

Maybe you should force them cancel and refund you the whole order (if you don’t need the PSU alone) Speaking of the 5V**5A** PSU… I’m…

But I searched around there's no HIGH PRICE for 4GB model, only 8GB model which is IMO meaningless...

Same

I got this: >Dear Customer, >We regret to inform you that the discounted local stock for RASPBERRY-PI RPI5-4GB-SINGLE is now out of stock…

Amazon JP's pre-order is quite tight. I've got mine for ~$130 tax+shipped. There were two batches of pre-orders on Amazon JP - a cheaper…

Technically speaking Japanese version is ~$15 more expensive than ours. Not sure what EB did to get the exclusivity here for the deluxe…

Is it going to be EB Exclusives even after the release? No Amazon at all?

Was waiting for an offer on this but eventually got Yale instead.

Superloop and Exetel (they're the same company) has 30-day notice thing, too. Just using their NBN is good enough. But porting home phone…

That’s very strange as AOC should always come with higher discounts, even higher than education price.

Tagged $2.4k (remember the JB sales mid-April?) and quoted $2k for 85C845 delivered. As I said, MT9615 chip (T615). Generally good…

Shouldn't be surprised as C855 is already generally available.

Check firmware version. T653 is newer chipset, T615 is the older one. The build version in Android system information.

Got a display of 85C845 from Pakenham JB a while back. It's OK. Finger crossed that you're getting the model with Pentonic 700 chipset…

Or free C&C. (why is there someone neg this comment!?)

[Apple AOC channels](https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/641911) should be cheaper and you can still use Apple GC for further discounts.…

If you need cache drives, give enterprise 2280/22110 or U.2 drives a try. For storage, yeah any drive would do as long as you're on RAID1.

Normal 10Gbps chips, maybe. If you go ASM2464PD (USB4/TB4) enclosures, you'll need a proper PCIe 4.0 SSD to reach full speed (~3.6GB/s). I…

Absolutely. People should know that the moment they see the blue house icon. Interestingly this lock is running on BLE, not Wi-Fi nor…

I was going to pointing out that UX only supports a few other UniFi network devices and their bandwidth will be heavily bottlenecked by the…

The outgoing traffics are all routed to Austria. If you're lucky that you can send SMS to any number, then you should be able to get the…
