  1. Yeah has been my consensus as well. From the logs it looks like it was waking for who knows what reason, but I think it is what it is. For some reason I didn't find much for sleep study information, other than people asking what [NONE] could be for an application ID.
  2. Hey guys. I know there are tons of threads out there on this. Honestly I just want to make sure I don't have something else going on. If it is the typical issue, it is what it is. I'll mitigate with hibernate. (Also off topic, but the only place I could find lid closing settings was in control panel? Yikes...) Anyways, I'm on a Surface Laptop 4, with the Ryzen 5 on updated Win11. As per most other people with the issue, sometimes when I pull the laptop out of a bag after taking it somewhere, or just leaving it home, it's gone from 100% to maybe 15% in about 8-10 hours. In both cases, it was plugged in overnight, then unplugged without being opened, and then opened about 10ish hours later. I pulled a sleep study report finally and saw that it seems to wake up for 30 seconds, then sleep for 34 seconds, and it rinses and repeats continuously until dead. I attached the two most recent sleep study reports I pulled on it, both show the same thing. WIn11 settings shows it as the Windows Default Lockscreen, but the report shows [NONE] which I thought was a pretty nice feature. Thoughts on this? sleepstudy-report-1-19.html sleepstudy-report-1-24.html
  3. Very sorry to necro this thread so delete if need be, but I have this issue as well. Does not matter what my settings are, I ALWAYS have the same fan RPM. This is on 2x ML120 PRO RGB fans in my case. I can set them to 100%, or I can set them to 0%. They will always be at roughly 1100RPM. It looks like that wasn't understood above, so I wanted to clarify that for anyone else who stumbles into this thread. I can't seem to find a solution. Have reinstalled the Commander Pro, I have tried different fan headers on it, forced a firmware update, etc. No solution as far as I know.
  4. I've used Linux a little but I don't know very much. What's the benefit of ZFS?
  5. Hey guys! Building my first dedicated server/NAS build, but I want to do something a bit different too. I just upgraded my main PC and got s new case, so I have my old Fractal Design Node 804 lying around. I figured, since I have some aging hardware lying around, I could put it to use. However being that I want a more generalized system, which will primarily work and a NAS but also have gaming capability, I'm a bit lost. Since the case holds up to 10 drives, I'd like to fill it up. I'm starting with 4x 2tb WD Blue drives, which I think I want in RAID10. (First time with raid, long story short, when I upgraded my power supply, I used a modular cable from a Corsair supply on my new EVGA PSU and toasted my drive...) Hardware is as follows: Intel i5-2300 12gb DDR3 Dell DH67M01 motherboard nVidia GTX970 Corsair CX550m 4x 2tb WD Blue WD20EZAZ (2 pictured) Primary Functions: NAS Minecraft / misc game server Gaming Machine (in case if guests) Render machine (in case I want to use my desktop for something else) My main question is, what do you guys recommend for OS? I'm looking at software RAID right now because I only have x1 PCI slots available with the GPU, and RAID cards are $$$. It sounds like Windows can handle it with Storage Spaces, but I'm also somewhat aware that unRAID has better features and I could use a VM within it for Windows? Thoughts? Pics of the machine attached, though it's not the prettiest
  6. Apologies if I wasn't very clear. I put the stock case fans on the radiator, they're just hiding on the other side of it. I wanted to hide the back side of the fans, just for aesthetic purposes. But I do plan on getting some more RGB fans to match the two I already have that came with the rad.
  7. Surprisingly, this case doesn't actually have any mounting points for fans in the bottom. I was able to squeeze one in by running two screws in the perforations in the bottom but I could only make that happen in the front unfortunately. Haven't tried gaming in the new setup yet but I have a feeling I'll see about the same temps for the GPU, which I want to say was somewhere around 75C?
  8. Update: I moved the Corsair RGB fans off the radiator and onto the case, one in the back, and one in the top. That way, the RGB isn't wasted, and the back side of the fan isn't exposed. I then moved the Fractal Design fans onto the radiator, in a push intake config. The compromise here though is that the RGB fans were four-pin, and the fan controller on the back of the case was only two-pin, so I had to modify the connector on the plugs so that they accepted the fans. That's fine, but the case fans are only three-pin, and as such, they aren't able to be controlled by iCue anymore. Thankfully they're quiet fans, but overall the system is louder now. However, where I was idling at 50 degrees, I'm now somewhere between 36 and 42, as it jumps all over there.
  9. Yeah that decision was made more for the aesthetics of seeing the better side of the fans than it was for the functional aspect of it. But I think you're right. I also just noticed that the bottom fan seems to be bringing in a lot of dust as well, all the more reason to try that. Maybe I'll put my non-RGB fans on the radiator, then run the RGB ones in the rear and maybe one on the top as well.
  10. I've been playing with a couple different airflow setups but I'm not sure route I want to go. Currently have the AIO fans in a push out the front (won't fit in the top as the RAM is not low profile), a rear exhaust, and an intake in the bottom which blows straight up at the GPU. Thermals seem to do decently in this config but I've noticed under heavy sustained loads, the front panel gets quite warm with the AIO radiator exhaust blowing straight at it. Was considering changing that to an intake instead, though that would largely hide the LEDs and/or show the uglier back side of the fans. What are your thoughts? I'm open to ideas, very curious to see what you think may be better.
