You should not have any issues. Worst case scenario is that one is slower than the other and will cause the faster one to step down, but unless one is significantly slower, you should have no issues.

Generally, in the past 10 years at least, mixed memory on dual channel configuration has not been an issue.

Google is doing this. I will see the time increase and get random skip backs pl on antenna pod.

I’m using truenas for my homebrew setup. I need to buy 2 more drives and start planning on rebalancing my setup, but this is how it looks right now.

Forbes has posted a fix, but it requires a human to boot into safe mode/recovery

I think it would be prudent to look for 32 GB of RAM. 16 is comfortable, and 32 is good for if you will be working on larger projects.

DDR 5 is the current standard

I wouldn’t go under 500gb for a SSD. Windows 11 64 requires 64 GB of storage. More than 1 TB isn’t bad to consider, but you can also shuffle massive projects off to external storage.

Do not use a HDD. Use SSD or NVMe. NVMe is more expensive.

USB 3.2 is the most recent iteration of the USB standard. It’s OK to settle for 3.0 and no USB C if cost is an issue. You can buy adapters, and unless you are constantly moving huge files via USB, it doesn’t matter.

If you can get WiFi 6, 802.11ax, go for it.

Google in this case. I’ll try the alternative mentioned

I’ll give it a shot. I’m using Google

Sorry, AAA games. I was swiping on my keyboard and didn’t see the mistake.

Basically, his concern is that if they are not cooperating with software engineers that the product won’t be able to run AAA games.

It’s more of a warning than a prediction.

If the drives are good, maybe. If not, you are looking at buying 4 drives from their compatibility list.

Do you already have a storage server? I’m running TrueNAS on a computer I retired a few years ago. I have 4 1TB drives in it and am about to install a used SAS card I got from eBay for $40 to add up to 6 more. It should give me 8tb of space.

This is what frustrates me about HP laptops. The biggest issues users see with them could be resolved with a hard reset to clear chip states, but you have to perform a hard reset by powering off, unplugging, and holding power for 30 seconds. A shut down or a restart doesn’t fully reset all chips and network/audio issues seem to persist.

I would love to own one, but the investment is too great right now. All I want is something repairable that will drive, have cool air, and play music over Bluetooth.

Yes.

24h2 will explicitly be using it by default.

I have opened other enclosures and found a custom board on the hard disk.

Without context, I would suggest Transmission for troubleshooting. Qbittorrent is bloating and weird on Windows.

The torrents should be hashed, but that wouldn’t stop someone from making a bad torrent or seeding one.

If someone made a file intentionally collided it would probably cause issues. These aren’t collision issues, but bad chunks of data.

At a peek, it seems that this attack only causes delays in downloads. It’s more possible that there are commonly shared files with similar issues.

Works fine enoughfor me.

What am I missing? Got a better suggestion?

The snipping tool.

Guess I’ll need to block that so users don’t accidentally send confidential information to Microsoft.

Oops, I accidentally built an arr-stack and started serving all my media through my own devices.

If you cannot install Plex or Jellyfin on the TV, a streaming device can be added.

You can also build your own streaming device with Kodi. An old laptop would work if you don’t have the means otherwise.
