Whell my are rack mount black units. They are old, at least 15 or 20 years old. I just changed the batteries last year in both units and now one of them showing bad battery light. Guess in the trash it goes, I switch all to the second unit that seams ok for now and start looking for a...

Even though it eats through them this fast I changed the cells last year. The second unit is working as far as I can tell with the same batteries. I replaced cells in both units at the same time, from the same vendor. It was cheaper to get 8 cells than buy them 4 at a time

Hi, need a third party opinion here. I have a couple of APC 1500 UPS. I changed the batteries in both about a year ago, until than they were unused for about 2 years as the batteries were dead. Now one of them, with the lightest load, a switch and the monitor, is beeping and sho bad battery...

Nice, I got sas2 for 200$. A few months back.

Without properly looking over this sql and knowing what sql engine used, I can not acert the desired result, but this sql looks scary. Why not a simple join with group by?

No I keep it in the garage. Had to move a few times and the box came handy.

Why hard to ship? I bought my sm847 about 10 years ago Came in a box with fitted foam wrapper. Perfectly safe. Of course the only thing left from that setup now is the shell and trays

Keep in mind that hiper-v free is very limited. It works and you can even do HA setup but do research about it. Also for HA you need a distributed storage between servers. It is very difficult to share local storage of the nodes. Last time I set something like that I used solarwinds storage but...

It all depends on what is your plan for this server. Why do you need raid?

You are welcome This forum helped me a few times too. BTW, the link is only one off hba that you may consider, it really depends on your true needs and wants. There maybe a few cards that cheaper yet still would work for you.

By the look of it it is sas3 backplane, so any sas3 hba will work like Supermicro LSI 9300-8i 12Gbps SAS-3 HBA P16 Here is a post that looks like exactly what you asking. https://forums.unraid.net/topic/109329-connecting-lsi-sas9305-24i-to-sas3-backplane/ It also looks like you need...

I have been running jdwonloader2 and jellyfin for the last 10 years. Used to have setup of sickbeard and sonarr but lost the VMs. Now I am trying to recreate something similar but need to reorganize my collection so I am trying to find what can sift through existing files and rename/move them...

I love the setup. Cant suggest much as you obviosly have seriose plans here, but have a question, how do you usr tdarr? Can it run withoit gpu? Can I use it not only to transcode my collection but also organaze it? Forgot to ask, what is your plan for OS? Thanks.

Thanks bilbo1337. I read about too, but the server was working fine for at least 6 or 7 years. Hence why I was thinking it was HDDs at first. But I checked the drives that fall out and they are ok. Health check report is ok. And when I put them back and resilver they work. Anyhow, I got a new...

Why do you think the SSD are not bootable? I had 2 730 at my work and both booted just fine from the SSDs in the flex bay
