To add on this - MBR contains the partition table of the disk, which includes - boot records, meaning where on the disk are the OS boot files (1 or more partitions). - what other partitions are on the disk Every disk has it's own MBR. You can also have a drive without any boot records, but it still has an MBR to save the partition table information. An alternative to MBR is GPT - GUID Partition Table.

Is there a way to check how many watts your system uses?
jj9987 replied to low tier gamer's topic in Power Supplies
- If you have a smart power supply, for example i-series from Corsair - If you have a UPS, that shows it - Use a wattage meter (Kill-A-Watt) or similar -
Shared 2FA - from latest LMG Clips (Teamviewer)

Just configure multiple devices or you can just use a password manager, which supports 2FA codes. -
New AMD Ryzen 9 Build for Work / Game / Testing (Hypervisor)
jj9987 replied to ronaldseow's topic in New Builds and Planning
Another thing is that you won't reach 4000 MHz on the RAM when using 4 sticks. This motherboard won't work great with 4 sticks of memory (daisy-chained). With 2 sticks, you won't reach 4000 MHz either, so don't bother spending that money. 3200 or 3600 MHz with CL 16 would be better option. This seems like a weird build overall - why double optical drives? That GPU won't handle gaming on 4K display very well, unless you play games that do not require a lot of GPU horsepower. -
Your OS might be installed in BIOS/Legacy/CSM mode, which does not support UEFI nor UEFI Secure Boot. Here's a tutorial on how to check it - https://itsfoss.com/check-uefi-or-bios

Then I don't think there's any question to answer, seems like you have made up your mind

The main advantage of an AIO over air cooling is aesthetics, that some prefer. I don't think you will be getting a lot better temperatures, noise and reliability will need to be sacrificed.

Looking for (used is fine) Android tablet, details inside
jj9987 replied to Radium_Angel's topic in Phones and Tablets
Check what is the minimum version of Android you need and how much you are willing to tweak it, e.g. do you need at least Android 7 from the OEM or are you fine with installing custom ROMs? -
Multi-GPU System Build Planning (Coin Mining)
jj9987 replied to Mike3332's topic in New Builds and Planning
CPU and motherboard - Get the cheapest Pentium/Celeron you can get. Motherboard just needs a lot of PCI Express slots so that you can connect multiple GPUs there. There are some mining motherboards available for that purpose. Power supply - Has to have enough PCI Express connectors and high enough wattage for the GPUs you plan to use. Disk - Smallest and cheapest SSD will do. HDD probably works too, but SSDs are so cheap, so don't see the point. GPUs - Depends what you can buy and what you plan to mine. Compare the hashrates for different coins and GPUs. You'll want to undervolt the GPUs to ensure they don't run too hot, so they are more reliable and fans don't have to be 100% all the time. Case - Something with good airflow. Or just keep it in the open, or build a DIY wooden platform for the rig. Think about dust though. Expect higher than normal room temperatures, if you plan to run the mining rig in living room or such. Also before you buy anything, you might want to check your electricity prices, calculate some approximate earnings and check how long your ROI (return on investment, how long it takes to earn back the money you spent) will be. -
webdav Native Windows 10 and Synology NAS WebDAV
jj9987 replied to Joveice's topic in Servers, NAS, and Home Lab
Yeap, Nextcloud WebDAV works. Though it took multiple attempts to get it working. It might be, that resolving the DNS is failing, in which case try using a direct IP. Another thing - is WebDAV available at root? Or is it on a different path? -
webdav Native Windows 10 and Synology NAS WebDAV
jj9987 replied to Joveice's topic in Servers, NAS, and Home Lab
Windows 10 network drives use SMB shares, they can not use HTTP(S)/WebDAV protocol. EDIT: Scratch that, apparently it should be possible. Am testing right now. -
Really considering getting an UPS for this sole reason
jj9987 replied to Răzvan Botea's topic in Power Supplies
How do you plan on accessing Internet when your router/switch has no power? Or what do you plan doing during the blackout? -
1 TB drive is fine. You can use up to 2 TB drives without any worries (above that needs GPT support), as long as you have SATA ports available - generation/speed is irrelevant here. But I don't think you will get much better performance, unless your current HDD is on it's way out and has gotten slow. In addition, check that you have 64bit drivers available for your motherboard, otherwise you can run into issues. You won't gain any performance with going 64bit either - application compatibility might be another thing though.

Such major CPU changes don't happen overnight. CPU architectures and designs are planned 3-5 years ahead, so it will definitely be a while before we see any.

gigabyte aorus 3080 ti any known common issues?
jj9987 replied to tuunade98's topic in Graphics Cards
To be honest, only people with problems are the ones who are complaining and posting on the Internet. Generally those, who are happy, enjoy their GPU instead of posting on the Internet. If there was an actual issue, that is present on large number/percentage of GPUs, there would be much more publication on it. So I wouldn't worry too much about it. -
No. SLI only works with GPUs that have same model and same amount of VRAM. Even if it would work, SLI support is very limited, many games do not support it at all.

Intel Core i9-10900F - Turbo frequency
jj9987 replied to HMuller19's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
The turbo frequency listed in the specs is a maximum single core boost clock. Cinebench generally loads all cores, therefore you only get the all-core boost clock, which is lower than the maximum specificed turbo clock. -
Because print function does not return anything, it only triggers a print output to standard output. Doesn't matter where the function is or what it belongs to. It still must define what it returns. A function in Order class can also return just a string. For example, you can have a function in the Order class, that is named getItems() and returns itemList, that is of type MutableList<Item>.
