Cipher text:
Substitution cipher:
Plain text answer:
I solved it by plotting frequency of letters as @LoneRangerS suggests on the previous page. Then just substitute letter by letter by looking for likely words.
MATLAB script I wrote, if anyone is interested: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9iasfl8pt38vhw9/Cipher.m?dl=0

I agree that "scrapyard" can be any budget as long as you're buying used parts. The whole point is to get better performance than spending the same amount of money on new parts.
And nice deal on that 290X. I'd be hesitant on buying used power supplies and hard drives though.

Yes, I'm using ZFS.
I just did some testing with Plex, and it seems like two simultaneous 1080p transcodes is the limit. Tested with direct play on my Desktop, and forced transcoding on my Samsung Smart TV, Nexus 7, and Galaxy S4.
I tried many combinations, and these work:
1) Direct play on desktop + 1080p (quality level 10/12) stream on TV + 1080p (8 Mbps) stream on Nexus 7 or Galaxy S4.
2) Direct play on desktop + 1080p (quality level 10/12) stream on TV + 720p (4 Mbps) stream on Nexus 7 + 720p (4 Mbps) stream on Galaxy S4.
3) Direct play on desktop + direct play on TV + 1080p (8 Mbps) stream on Nexus 7 + 1080p (8 Mbps) stream on Galaxy S4.

I haven't had to re-activate Windows when restoring drive images, so I assume cloning would work the same way.

What drive cloning software are you using? I believe most should be able to clone a partition onto a new drive.
Either way should work fine. I would go for the faster speed of the SATA port.
Yep.
Your SSD should take on the old drive letter, but you can always change the drive letters manually in Disk Management later.

Sorry for the late posting.
i ended up going for this
Gigabyte GA-H97N-WIFIIntel Pentium G3240 3.1GhzTeam Elite Dark 2x8GB DDR3 1600MHz (TDD38G1600HC901)Corsair Force LS 60GB SSD Sata 3Fractal Design Node 8048x 3TB WD Green`s And was a tight fit to get all does 8 drives into the 804. probably should invest in some 90 degrees sata/power plugs
But iam thinking of changing out the stock fans. with some Noctua fans.
But since this motherboard only have 1 free woundering how can i do this ?
What i want is kinda this,. That the fan rpm speed go based on cpu heat.
So i assume i would need some kind of pwm splitter to connect to my singel free sys_fan port ?
Did not linus review something like this in a video not to long ago ? *just cant remember what and when*

Jonny.Wong.16 reacted to JohnnyGrey in NAS build help?
Why go with a previous generation CPU/motherboard? And that motherboard he mentions only has two SATA ports. The Pentium draws the same amount of power, and has very similar performance to the Celeron G1830 (Haswell), but costs $8 more. I would go with the Celeron G1830, along with the above mentioned motherboard, so you can take advantage of the six SATA ports.
EDIT: The G3220 is available cheaper, so that's the obvious winner. Sorry for the misinformation
