  1. Those are all the drives I can use, don't have to. The only ones in use are one ssd, 1 8tb and 1 tb. Only the 8tb is with data i want to keep. I am unable to install any linux distro with a recent kernel. I don't have the full information, but it seems newer kernels are not supporting the G5 drivers anymore.
  2. Probably Raid 5 if I'm not mistaken. I want for it to be okay if 1 drive dies. If I look at my total number of drives, i have 1x 8tb 2x 1tb 1x 2tb 2x 248ssd 1x 1tb sshd. One ssd, the 8tb drive and one 1tb drive are already in use with the FXserver. HP one does not have anything important as of now. I have tried installing 6.0, doesn't work. Multiple errors. I have included a screenshot.
  3. I am currently waiting for an upgrade to version 5.0 for starters, see if that keep working and / or makes a difference. I've tried reading up on ZFS and it's mostly recommended. Still I am confused. Could you tell me if what I said is possible?
  4. PROXMOX 4.4 is the newest version that I got working on the HP server. I have tried nothing of the sort on the FXserver as of yet. I've also tried IPERF and it's the same speeds as the online speedtest. I've no idea what it could be aside from the proxmox version. All the VIRTIO drivers are installed and set correctly in PROXMOX. As with the RAID. Would it be possible to make a dataset with the one 1tb hdd. And make another dataset with two/three 1tb disks? Could this all be pulled together in one windows volume with a seperate ssd for the OS? Say, if I want single disk addition, what can is explore then? Power usage is not a problem, lower is always nicer, but not needed. I tested with Ookla and Iperf, the same network speeds of around 40 mbits. I've no idea how Hyper-v works. What would you suggest if I would buy new hardware? Something different for the current working fxserver? Or something entirely different?
  5. Greetings, Currently I am running a consumer pc recently replaced in this (Inter-tech IPC 4U-4129-N) server case. It has 1x 8tb hdd, 1x 1tb hdd. 1x 248gb boot ssd, 8gb ram and an FX6350. It is as of now baremetal running Windows Server 2019 and it is mostly used for a Minecraft Server and 24/7 Plex. Now I have gotten an old DL380 G5 from school with one 74gb 10k hdd with probably more of those to come. If not, I'm going to replace it with one 248gb kingston ssd. It has 32gb ram and two Xeon 5160's. My plan is to use the HP server to run the services like the Minecraft server and Plex. The FXServer is then only going to be used for network storage as the case makes for easy expansion. Now I need some opinions and help, is this a good setup? If not, should I ditch the HP server or keep both? Something else? If I'm going to use the HP server, it does not need RAID, I do not find it critical enough for that. I have been installing PROXMOX 4.4 and ESXI 5.5 on it, but I'm currently not satisfied. ESXI only works on 5.5, management/documentation is lackluster and confusing. As far as I know without a working web interface. PROXMOX is working better, but even though I've installed the VIRTIO drivers for everything and configured everything according to best practices. The network is slow with a max of 40 mb/s when I do a speedtest while the baremetal FXServer is getting 500 mb/s, the full speed. So if I can't fix this, PROXMOX is out of the picture. If I am going to use this server, any tips? Just do it baremetal? Disregarding how I'm going to use the FXServer, I would like to make a raid array with future expansion opportunities and maybe some redundancy. I would want this for the possible speed increase and so I have one volume for all my movies,backups,series etc. So when I have filled up my 8tb drive, I would like to have the possibility of easy expansion. I have an extra 1tb hdd and 2tb hdd, and if I could, I would like to use these as well. But I am under the impression you need hdd's with similar sizes, so most likely more 8tb hdd's, these are shucked from easystores. Can someone elaborate on this? Should I do software raid? Hardware raid? For possible buy advice, I live in the Netherlands. Need more information? Please ask. Any help is most appreciated.
  6. Can you show me where it is priced around 1200 euros? I can't find this laptop anywhere.
  7. Why does the Pavilion have bad exhaust design? Could you explain? Also the one you posted, do you know if the brand is reputable?
  8. Hi, I'm searching for a replacement laptop of the one I have right now. (Lenovo Y50 2014) It's going to be used for standard schoolwork, running multiple virtual machines (3-4), watching movies and gaming. My school has as recommendation that I have 16gb RAM, a big harddisk with good speed and an I7. (Or something comparable.) I also am looking for good build quality since it's going to go through much abuse in my bag and at school, a nice IPS screen and good speakers. I would like for it to not look too "gamer". And have an RJ45 network port. (But this is not essential since I can also use an adapter.) It would also be nice if it is lighter and thinner than my old Lenovo, but I could live with it not being that. Battery life isn't that important. It's nice to have good battery life, but I was always tethered to the wall with my old one, so I'm not that bothered. I live in the Netherlands and my budget is max 1300 euros, but it is preferably around the 1000-1100. I myself am looking at something like this: https://tweakers.net/pricewatch/855713/hp-pavilion-power-15-cb040nd/specificaties/ Thanks.
  9. That's indeed bad, thanks for telling. Does it go for my board then? Since it's a different series, it seems. And everyone talking about my board never said anything about that problem, I can't see it at least. And even then, do you have a better suggestion then what works with my faster RAM? Thanks.
  10. Others say it's great for the price, do you have any suggestions then? Or say why it's crap?
  11. Hi, I've been researching my new pc build and I just want to post it here if it's good and compatible together. My biggest problems I have at the moment is if the Graphics card is just as good as other brands (it's cheaper that's why), if the Ram is compatible with my MOBO while still being able to get the high speeds Ryzen needs and if my power supply is good. Any suggestions would be awesome and general tips too. CASE: Fractal Design Define R5 Black CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 GPU: Gainward GTX 1060 6gb RAM: G.Skill DDR4 Ripjaws V 2x8GB 3000mhz CL15 SSD: FROM OLD PC HDD: FROM OLD PC MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte AB350-GAMING 3 POWER SUPPLY: Seasonic G-Serie 450 Watt CD/DvD: FROM OLD PC Thanks beforehand.
  12. I have a 750ti with a low end amd cpu. Gets the job done, but this is of course much better. gibe nao pls
