    Used enterprise drives?

    Used enterprise drives?

    Yeah that's probably the best plan. I just put a few drives on my watchlist anyway. Need to think this through. I've been wanting to move toward nvme storage, but that got me looking at new hardware because my Xeon 2680 v2's are also getting a bit long in the tooth but that's more than I can...

    Used enterprise drives?

    I'm not opposed to having fewer larger drives if I go to SSD's. but if I go SSD I need certain features like power loss protection, etc. Just looking at the ServeTheHome forum and I see the Samsung SM883's recommended. those could be an option... Although I did find a lot of 5 500Gb...

    that's a 3.5" drive no? I need 2.5"

    Used enterprise drives?

    anyone have any recommendations on used 2.5" enterprise drives to look for on ebay maybe? Could be either spinning drives or SSD's really. I've got 16 x 500gb WD velociraptor drives in my proxmox server in a zfs pool for vm storage that I'm looking for an affordable way to replace with something...

    cable compatibility (sanity check?)

    I have, but email support is slow lol. thought someone here might know off hand. I know the PCI-e, sata, molex etc are the same for type 3 and type 4 cables. the difference is the 24pin cable to the mobo and I actually just answered my own question when I went searching for the pinouts on the...

    cable compatibility (sanity check?)

    I have a set of cablemod cables here that I had bought for my Corsair AX1200i back in 2017 That PSU died in 2021 and when I RMA'd it they sent me back an HX1200i which I think is in the wife's machine right now and I have just an HX1200 in mine that I bought while I waited for the RMA. When I...

    Work in progress AquaTerra

    Small update, though nothing to show just yet. But my guy making me the custom bracket for the rad has acquired the material so hopefully I'll see a bracket soon because that's really the only missing piece now. Also, I picked up a lot of water cooling parts from a guy at work for really cheap...

    I think the perfect 104 key keyboard just doesn't exist for me...

    I actually did look at them as I mentioned somewhere in here I thought. I did entertain them for a minute but there was something I just didn't quite like sswilson is actually sending me an old corsair k70 of his though so that will hold me off a bit on my hunt. I do like the plain 104 key...

    FLOODED

    I lost a lot of stuff in a flood in ottawa round 2008 and it was a painful process. I did manage to salvage a lot of stuff that got wet though but ended up having to replace my main system and a few other things. I try to keep my stuff off the floor now if it has any value, especially if it's...

    I think the perfect 104 key keyboard just doesn't exist for me...

    I bet the light doesn't bleed out around the keys as much with that design. seems like it would be very focused toward the key itself from my observations just glancing at it.

    I think the perfect 104 key keyboard just doesn't exist for me...

    ah that's interesting. I hadn't really looked at the Asus keyboards that closely. I've been eye-balling custom options for a while though, give or take since i had to start replacing caps on my corsair and started figuring them my next keyboard will be one that adheres more closely to standards...

    I think the perfect 104 key keyboard just doesn't exist for me...

    See I can live without the media keys. sometimes they're useful to have but they aren't a selling point to me, and given that so far they seem to be the source of the problems with my K70 pending further testing, I'd just assume not have them. All I want is a straight up no frills 104 key...

    I think the perfect 104 key keyboard just doesn't exist for me...

    So it's not just me then. I actually have a logitech g810 here on the wifes computer and personally I find the switches/keys soft and the stock keycaps are cheap abs too, but just thinking about all this I glanced over at it just now and overall I do like the layout which is why I bought it...

    I think the perfect 104 key keyboard just doesn't exist for me...

    My Corsair K70 Lux keyboard that I've had for 6 years has started acting up. I think it's the original K70 Lux, not the v2 but what I liked about it, other than the solid metal frame, was the 100% vanilla 104 key layout, no Fn key fuckery for things I don't use and never have. After 30 years I'm...

    Work in progress AquaTerra

    Yeah, I'm fairly sure it will be enough but I am winging it a bit lol. I came to the conclusion that a 240mm rad should be enough mostly based on EK's configurator that tells me a 240mm rad is good for 200w. They don't make rads as slim as the Alphacool ST20 though, but after checking reviews on...

    Work in progress AquaTerra

    it's been slow progress. Lots of research to find just the right bits, and even then once I think I have something right, there's another challenge lol. I think I started the build around September and have been picking away at it slowly as I have time. I had hoped to finish it for the holidays...

    After this was my next issue. Fitting the reservoir.... The mounting holes were about 1.5mm too close to the GPU so I couldn't mount the res flush. Initially I thought maybe I could make some sort of shim to allow me to slide the reservoir more toward the front, maybe it could even be made out...

    Work in progress AquaTerra

    So now time for the first Dazmode order... picked up an Alphacool ST20 240mm rad. I think a 280 could fit but then fittings and other things start to obstruct, so 240mm it is. Also picked up a universal Koolance block and some fittings as well as a flat reservoir. At some point in my research it...

    Work in progress AquaTerra

    A few months back, I picked up a Fractal Design Terra case. I had just seen it a couple weeks earlier and kind of fell in love with it so when I had some extra cash I picked one up. Then I brought it home and slapped some parts in to size it up. I started with an older i7 something and a gtx1060...
