It has two SFF-8654 (8i) connectors. If they actually support SAS, you can get a breakout cable to drive 8 SAS/SATA drives off each one -…

Anyone got deals on 16GB or 32GB sticks? I only use them for OS installs and BIOS updates.

Get 9, raid-z3 is divine.

I think at that price, I'd rather get a frame work 395+ motherboard with 128G ram, and put it in a small case - unless you really need the…

Teams shares it as one big long screen. When I share my 40" monitor, I have to zoom in on whatever I'm sharing, otherwise everything is way…

One review of this kit: https://youtu.be/_HGlvzaTYQg?si=RX2z5OyiqfD253vx

A good middle ground is a government job. Max 2 days/week in the office - many are fully remote, and actual work is rare. Full time pay,…

It definitely draws more, but from one youtube review I found, it seems to be around 11W: https://youtu.be/1AEoPJb3HF4?t=453

They're small enough to fit under a monitor (at normal height), so use them for ... whatever you want to display - slack, discord, youtube,…

All the invoices I've downloaded from aliexpress include the GST amount. Mostly they'll be in CNY or maybe USD though. For tax purposes, I…

I run zfs directly on proxmox, and have a debian 12 LXC container set up for running samba (using cockpit to do the sharing setup). I don't…

Be not afraid - my order of 100 arrived.

I just use a spoon for the crevices and crusty bits. A bit of nylon rope to tie it to the shower taps. Pro-tip: Don't use your mum's best…

Thanks OP, bought 100.

Yeh, pretty sure I got mine for about $16 from amazon a few years back. They're a fine little switch for the money.

I've got the Jonsbo N5, and it's fairly chonky - not sure it'll be a downsize from a fractal define (unless it's a define 7 XL). It's as…

Try installing Windows 95 (30 years old now) onto modern hardware. Some parts of it might kind of work, but it will be missing drivers for…

At this stage of the game, people should go for anything zen4 or above - or at least the zen3+ cores with DDR5 support - ddr4 ram will only…

Are you sure the 5090 won't bottleneck your Pi 5?

I second this. Initially I was hesitant (because ... Kogan). But for productivity (coding, etc) it's pretty good. Not so much for gaming -…

My friend, you're supposed to insert the card into the x16 slot on your motherboard, not your mouth.

You can get a cheap 2, 4, 6, 12, etc port pci-e to sata adapter, m.2 to sata adapter (look for the 1166 based ones) to add extra sata…

Playing all the freebie games I've collected over the years would be a full-time job.

I've got a couple of Horaco switches, and have had zero problems.

Major differences look like the 10G port, and the pro supports wifi7 on 2.4ghz as well as 5ghz and 6ghz. Just throw the extra $10 in and…

Thanks for that. I'm bouncing back and forth between the edition xs and the ananda stealth - I think the edition xs will suit my listening…

@jasswolf what is your impression of the comfort/fit of the Ananda vs the Edition XS?

It looks like the ananda uses the same stealth magnets as the edition xs - so the only difference is the headband? Does anyone have an…

Get a good high static pressure 12cm fan for the cpu cooler. One of: * [Arctic P12…

I have one, and was a bit hesitant (because kogan ...) Turns out it's actually not bad. Mine had zero dead or stuck pixels. For less than…
