  2. There's no reason to overcomplicate the setup like that unless you're running 10 gig Ethernet between your PCs and the file server. Just run everything on one subnet. If you really insist, set up a completely separate network just for file sharing and use a different address space. (For example, 192.168.2.x/24 instead of 192.168.1.x/24.) Then connect to the file shares by those addresses instead of the "regular" ones.
  3. I think you're over complicating it. You have several solutions PC-Switch/Router-Internet PC-| PC-| and PC-Switch PC-| PC-| But also PC(1a)-| PC(2a)-| PC(1b)-|-Switch-Internet PC(2b)-| PC(1c)-| PC(2c)-| Depending on how you setup things, you can either have the network "teamed" so you get 2Gbits per PC, or you can have them on two separate switches with two different IP address sets (192.168.0.1/255 and 192.168.1.1/255) or one set of IP ranges. Basically what you're asking is kind of silly, but not too far out there. If this was a data center, it would make sense, because you would connect your PC's to the "gateway" switch, and then connect your other ethernet port to the un-routed switch, and run your IPMI sessions over that one. Whichever machine is operational acts as the access gateway. But for a home desktop, you do realize you can assign multiple IP addresses to the SAME ethernet device already right? So you could take that third option above, and still assign 192.168.0.1/255 and 192.168.1.1/255 and just only have one gateway assigned and still benefit from having two switches. The problem, of course, is that teaming tends to not work like people think it works. What it does is enable multiple data streams for failover rather than to increase net bandwidth. Usually it only works in favor for servers doing load balancing and not very much for client devices. Anyway, what's most likely going to happen is that Windows won't team the adapters if they're on switches that can't see each other, thus it will treat each switch set as though they are different computers. This might work, but if you're trying to secure your network, it just won't because you can't typically tell Windows to share only on ethernet adapter A and not B. The computer only has one name. Hence the last configuration is no less secure. There is a "gotcha" here though, you can setup static IP addresses on that non-routed-to-the-internet switch connected ports (so you don't need a second router doing nothing), but Windows won't be forced to use it unless you set the internet-facing addresses to "public" and the ones you want the shares to work on to "private" Realistically, you shouldn't even be concerned about this if you have a proper router and aren't connecting your machines directly to the internet.
  4. Samsung Series 7 All-In-One from ~2011 https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-introduces-world’s-thinnest-all-in-one-pc-series-7
  5. Hi buddy, Unless you need some additional security, you don't need to use the 2nd lan port on any PC. I have a 1GB fibre internet connection with the following connected: 7 x PCs (all cat6) 1 x Home Server (cat6) 2 x laptops (wireless) 2 x Phones (wireless) 3 x Smart TVs (cat6) 2 x PS4s (cat6) and a load of home AV stuff that's cat6 as well All of the above is fed as follows: Fibre Router feeds directly into a 12 port switch that feeds all devices in that room. Longer run Cat6 cables then go from same switch to other rooms in the house and into smaller 8 port switches that then feed each rooms devices. I also have a home server that deals with my Plex, file serving and a few network wide services and I have no issues with bandwidth or reliability. In summary, I don't think you need to over complicate your home network with multiple NICs / VLans unless you have specific security concerns as this will only require you to setup potentially unnecessary firewall rules / routes.
  6. This motherboard would seem to be designed for rack-mounted chassis, not regular ATX cases. Its screwing holes do also not match any from ATX chassis. It would be better to grab an empty rackmount chassis that can fit this board, including those listed on Supermicro's website.
  7. As long as you don't exceed the 100°C yes, but you could even run there all day long, and it'll throttle itself if it exceeds it anyway.
  8. tried that, still happens. Hopefully it'll get fixed soon, but just gotta live with it for now IG
  9. Do you think that this keyboard for inspiron 5368 is going to fit my 5379? It has free shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/284717742399
  10. In your company, maybe. It might surprise you to learn that there are companies specialized in making code efficient.
  11. I purchased the atx version of this board after watching few videos. Come to realization that the wifi/Bluetooth module is not included on the atx version.
  12. Yes was talking about the "democratic" countries, US/EU/Canada etc they usually have stringent criteria to silence media for political reasons
  13. I didn't feel any of the above explainations were complete, so I'm adding this: When a manufacture makes a HDD or SSD they measure its capacity in Terabytes (TB), but Windows measures drive capacity in Tibibytes (This is usually written TiB, but for some reason windows writes it as TB which is why there is always confusion on this topic). The difference between Terabytes and Tibibytes is they use different prefix systems. Prefixs like Kilo, Mega, Giga and Tera are Decimal prefixs and therefore you multiply or divide by 1000 to move between them, so 1000 Bytes is a KB, 1000KB is a MB and so on. However, Prefixs like Kibi, Mebi, Gibi and Tebi are Binary prefixs and therefore you multiply or divide by 2^10 (or 1024) to move between them, so 1024 Bytes is a KiB, 1024KiB is a MiB and so on. Because of this a TB is 1,000,000,000,000 Bytes while a TiB is 1,099,511,627,776 Bytes (almost 10% larger). The effects that the above has are as follows: Here is the capacity information of the WD SN740 SSD in my laptop. In total it stores 2,047,720,046,592 Bytes which is actually about 2% more than the 2TB (2*1000^4 or 2,000,000,000,000 Bytes) the drive manufacture said the drive would have. However, windows measures the drive in Tibibytes and 2TiB would be 2*1024^4 or 2,199,023,255,552 Bytes. Clearly while the drive has more than 2TB, it has less than 2TiB. To get the 1.86 figure, Windows does 2,047,720,046,592 divided by 1024^4 which gets 1.86(23.....) TiB.
  14. It depends on targeted resolution as well as bitrates. Generally, an H.264 video would require twice of bitrates as high as HEVC-encoded ones to maintain the same quality; this can be shown in statistics by playing a video on a browser with bitrates up to 120Mbps. If targeted bitrates are set below that of the source, its quality would be compromised. Also, it is possible that this TV was just getting too ancient to decode 4K HEVC videos natively, or was limited by network connectivity (for example, connected via Wi-Fi instead of wires, since such videos would have fairly high bitrates compared to 1080P, and require a good connection to be transferred). These can be solved by either an external TV box or a Ethernet cable.
  15. Seems like this thread was hijacked Anyways I found out there is a subreddit for tailscale: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tailscale/) I'll try my luck over there too. Best, -a-
  16. i want to know how to create a home network meaning what settings do i need to use on the computers. Here is my situation. I have 3 computers, each computer have 2 gigabit lan ports, i have a 1 gigabit network internet connection. I have 1 router for the internet use only and i have another router for local home networking only (meaning i have windows 11 on all 3 computers, and 1 computer i have sharing my local hard drive with the other 2 computers.) So i was wondering what settings for all 3 computer should i set for to work in the following manner. I want each computer to use the 1 gigabit lan port for internet only while the 2nd gigabit lan port they use for local networking sharing only. So how i tell each computer to use the 1st gigabit port for internet only and then use 2nd gigabit port for home networking only. please keep in mind that i have 3 computers running windows 11 home and each computer has a total of 2 gigabit lan ports on them. Thanks in advance. also the 2nd router that will be doing the home networking will not be connecting to internet is it just for home networking sharing information between all 3 computers.
  17. what is the power usage during the spike and how many cores are active at the same time?
  18. You don't even need all that CPU to properly feed a RTX4070 (and broken PC ports are broken on every CPU for the most part), the RTX4070.. it's basically a RTX3080 with framegen right? i7 13700/K based CPU is ample vs the 13900K you want but don't need.
  19. board is fucked only reccomendation i have to try fixing it is to deep clean it which is just taking the board out, take all heatsinks + cmos battery out, clear cmos + power button for a minute, rinse with water making sure everything is soaked, then you can dunk in a bucket of water for an hour or 2 or use a dishwasher with no detergent, leave to dry for a day or 2 if cleaning it doesnt work yeah board is fucked and youll have to replace it, bunch of cheap midranger b3/450 around the 50$ mark like the tomahawk or equivalent so wont be expensive to do and you might aswell resell the 2700 and get a 3600(x) for 50$ while reusing the wraith prism as youll get much better singlecore, 5600(x) is at ~80$ btw
  20. That's because windows uses the TB shortcut (terabyte, 10^12), but display the number in TiBi bytes, which are 2^40 > 10^12
  21. Today
  22. This is definitely not what I would have gone with. Things you listed aren’t exactly that demanding. Unnecessary K series cpu is unnecessary Why did you even put a graphics card in there? You already got a gpu.
  23. Terabyte vs tibibytes. Thats whats happening here.
  24. Yes that is normal for 2 TB rated drives to have 1.8 TB of useable space. I have two in my NAS and that's how much capacity I have. Neither is a boot drive, which would reduce the useable space even more.
  25. 2 iphone plus 128gb . for my mother and her brother.
  26. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bZq6bL 14700k based build with 64gb of ddr4 14900k is an extra 140$ and a complete waste of money when the 14700k only has 4 ecores less
  27. where can i get the recovery key for bitlocker
