  1. @thelastmaker Hey thank you very much for providing the info and alternative. The case you linked isn't hot swap bay? Since it doesn't have a backplane and front opening bay design. The rotation is a nice touch. Please, correct me if I am mistaken. Size seems to be fine to me. I don't need the case urgently, I definitely should contact iStarUSA to get a quote and ETD. Would you mind to tell me how you contact them? by phone or email? Did they inform you the wait time prior ordering?
  2. @Windows7ge thank you for the info. I will try my luck out to contact their sales anyway see if I could get some pics. Your enthusiasm has already justified your expense imo.
  3. hey thx for the reply, I couldn't find any interior pics.. so I ask help from the active community. I don't know why the manufacturer posted so little of them. I think the chassis I link use metal bay cover, tho I ain't 100% sure abt this. Never bought any build-to-order rack mount chassis, I was also hoping to know the overall built quality of iStarUSA as well. FYI, I have a Debian based system serving as my personal NAS, media streaming, VPN, RADIUS, proxy, printer server, I work in IT department, this machine makes my workflow a lot more flexible. Recently the system drive along with one of my RAID 5 drive died, during the process of replacing them while working inside a fractal design Node804 made me wanting to upgrade to proper chassis. That really is all. I am okay with swapping components if necessary to make future work easier. This machine will sit in my storage room where space is limited.
  4. Hi all, I am wondering if anyone has first hand experience with this chassis istarUSA D-265-DE9-MATX. According to the official page, this is a build-to-order product, it's hard to find build pictures or posts regarding it from users.
  5. hey, sorry for the late reply, You won't see speed boost by simply change a new router. Modern Router serves as an all-in-one solution which includes, router, switch, access point. Some of them can also be a modem. I think for a nas solution, unless wireless connection is must, most likely you want a wired connection from NAS all the way to your router. Client devices can connect to your router wirelessly either directly or through wireless APs. If you would like to use your NAS via the internet, you could consider buying routers that supports openVPN natively like those ASUS products. Then, VPN back into your home network. Use your NAS as in LAN (speed is still limited, just the way you access NAS is simpler). Or you can set up your own VPN on your NAS as well, but that's trickier since you need to know how to configure your router and gateway to accommodate with VPN setup. Alternatively, Port forward certain protocols to your LAN IP address on your router, such as FTP, HTTP. I still think VPN is better due to security and versatility tho. Does your ISP give you a static IP? If not, you will likely need to pay for DNS services to keep tracking your dynamic IP. My suggestion is to get a static IP. Get a feature-rich router, to setup port forwarding and VPN for different services. Ideally, you don't want to use the default ports on the internet for your private NAS. I am not familiar with Dsyncronize, the reason I asked about OS was because that's usually the difficult part to set up, if you want to sync cross platform. I think in the linux world rsync is the most popular choice. There's tons of softwares utilize it. In the nut shell, they are the same. FYI, raid configuration is a whole other topic. File quantities, size, physical drive numbers etc.. are the major factors. Good luck, I hope my experience will help you in some way while you are doing this. It took me a lot of time to actually figure it out while I was in college.
  6. For your network speed question, When you say bridge, do you mean your NAS in LAN is connected to your router wirelessly? Either in LAN connected wired or wirelessly, as long as you are within the same LAN, preferably the same subnet, you should not experience any speed limit besides your lowest LAN speed, which in most cases, it's your wireless connection, assuming 1Gbits wired speed. However, if you go outside of LAN, or even VPN back in, you are limited by your Upload or Download speed of both your home and the accessing location. FYI, AC standard is the theoretical speed, it won't be identical to actually real world application. For your NAS question, IMO, if you like to learn and spend time on it, build a DIY pc with LINUX and install proper distro to do what you want, such as FressNAS, OpenMediaVault, NAS4Free. If all you need is to get it done, buying off-the-shelf product will save you lots of time. For your sync need, what platform is it on? Is the work computer cross platform?
  7. Not sure if I understand you correctly but I think this is what you are asking. def catego(lista): l1=[] for i in lista: if i>=0 and i<=12: l1.append("Niño") elif i>12 and i<=17: l1.append("Adolescente") elif i>18 and i<=30: l1.append("Joven") elif i>30 and i<=45: l1.append("Maduro") elif i>45 and i<=65: l1.append("Adulto") else: l1.append("Adulto Mayor") return l1 Edades=[9,45,67,38,23,15,47] print(catego(Edades)) The above code gives me output like this, ['Niño', 'Maduro', 'Adulto Mayor', 'Maduro', 'Joven', 'Adolescente', 'Adulto']
  8. since the first few batches of sentry have finally being delivered, I am wondering if there's a new ETA on when new orders could be placed in any form of distribution?
  9. I live in NYC, so I guess in my knowledge, B & H photo is a place that may have things you need. If you are staying for a bit longer, I suggest you to order it from vendors don't charge additional tax like Newegg and send it to your hotel.
  10. You want all the radius of bending area is heated up evenly and slowly to the same temp inside out. You can rebend it if the bend isn't large. For a 90 degree, it's very visible to see the mark when you rebend things.
  11. hello LTT forum, I am recently sleeving all my wires in the rig. just done something really stupid that I forgot to record the pinout of my pump b4 extracting the pins(a 4 pin molex & 4 pin fan header). The unit is this combo from EK. There's two wires on the 4 pin Molex, Black and Red. Is the red one 5v or 12v? I am confused cuz usually red is 5v while yellow is 12v. But D5 are supposed to be 12v DC. Also, the 4-pin fan header has two wires(not just one for PWM signal) One of them is Green and the other is Blue. Could anyone take pic of their pump combo or explain the pinout of it for me? thx!
  12. ah If you still care, you can somehow add an air valve or loose point (preferably at top of res imo) for the trap air to go out. You absolutely do have enough head pressure. It could literally take days to let all the air in the loop aggregate into the reservoir. Just be patient, even if you can't complete the loop for the first few hours. Let the pump do its job. And I would suggest that you jump another PSU that only powers the pump for a process like that.
  13. welp, Martin's Liquid Lab did this long time ago. if you are interested, look into the PQ curve. I don't know, it could be, it depends on where you sitting on the PQ curve. Noise perception is subjective as well. My guess on this is No, this would benefit from serial over parallel. Loop orders does not mater in real-world scenario. Your pressure of the loop in Serial is accumulated by each block, it doesn't matter which one comes first. Like several posts above, the contact conductivity of thermal is minimal to make any measurable difference, so loop order really doesn't make much of difference in real application. For gravity, it is pretty much irrelevant in the scale of PC watercooling. The air/fluid pressure is significantly higher than gravity, but yes, scientifically, gravity does make little to none change to your pump. I'd really like to see any source indicating parallel is less optimal when out-let at top and in-let at bottom. or if anyone can explain it to me.
