So those 'powerline adapters' can be pretty random sometimes.  Sometimes they break in simple storms where the power grid fluctuated enough to damage the powerline adapters themselves (brown-outs).
 
Alternatively, there may be some kind of interference.  Maybe someone plugged in something on the same power circuit and it's creating some kind of electro-magenetic interference.  It happens when you combine power and data on the same lines as they don't work too well together.
 
Have you tried plugging straight into your router instead, with a separate chord?  You can't ignore layer 1 issues here.

PCIe M.2 are starting to outperform even the most high end commercial Discreet PCIe SSD's like the Intel 750 series ($1500+ card), ASUS RAIDR ($500), and OCZ Velo drive ($1600+ card).
 
Just check out the specs of Samsung 950 Pro.  Sub $500 and you get this:

Sequential Write Up to 1,500 MB/sec
Random Read

WebDAV shares are new in FreeNAS 9.3 stable.  It will let you do this if you are on the same network.  You can link a WebDAV share and a CIFS share to the same dataset so you can easily drag and drop files between mobile and desktop devices.
 
It's a different story if you want to do this from another network.

No disappointment taken.  The phone's junk anyway

+1 intel 730, but I wouldnt use a raid config for your OS.  It will make it slower for booting.

Dear LTT
Please stop referring to the Xbox One and Playstation 4 as 'next-gen.'
As we can only experience what is actually happening here, right now, it would be more suitable to calling it 'Current-Gen.'
I might remind you that 'Next-Gen' was a catch phrase used to promote the release of the Xbox One and Playstation 4, but (as with everything) since it's release it has since transitioned to the simple and modest 'Current-Gen' status.
 
Sincerely
LTT fan.

it's called planned obsolescence...  It was designed to fail.

Two of these
But with the i7 4770k, which will probably yield similar results as you.
I've removed the ACX and slapped on some waterblocks for future overclocks

This guy. In a 2-way config (not sure I say that in my profile). How many do you have?

I work in IT at a school, and we give Mac's to all our students.  It's gotten so bad now that they want to give out iPad mini's instead of actual laptops, which raises questions over how learning content can be delivered for IT, art and graphics students.  I've been preaching this since it was announced but nobody seems to care.
Shitty thing is it's gonna fall back on me when teachers start complaining about not being able to use Adobe Creative Suite, or AutoCAD.

Should try testing this way.  I find myself doing this alot at home when playing games so no reason why it's not considered a real world test.

Yes n is the next best thing to ac.  Still pretty good.

University level study is completely over-rated.  That has always been the case.  What people at university don't want you to know is that a uni degree has lost value over the last 10-15 years.  10 years ago not as many people went to uni, so those that did had an advantage over others.  Now that there are so many people going to uni, and universities in general have lowered their entry requirements (so as to make more money) you're starting to see a reverse trend.
 
On the other hand I find industry certification to be far more valuable.
 
Think of it this way, you go to uni and come out 3 or so years later with a piece of paper and limited work experience.  You are then competing with every other individual with the same piece of paper and work experience.  Chances are the employer will then just hire the person they like the most which is not really what you want when looking for work.  Even if you get past this you will most likely be doing jobs that are sub-par on what uni study has trained you for.
 
Industry certification though drills down into all the 'ins-and-outs' of a specific part of I.T... i.e Cisco certification drills down into topologies, switches/routers/hubs, cabling, and the TCP/IP Stack & OSI model.  It teaches you how computers communicate exactly, it teaches you the binary and decimal system, it teaches you what devices work at what layer of the OSI and the whole box-and-dice.  This is why the Cisco certification at least, will always be valuable.
The greatest thing though is as long as you have studied the certification and not necessarily taken the exams, it is just as valuable.  Most employers don't care about pieces of paper, but rather that you have the knowledge of how to do the job, and that they can ask you to do something and you can think how best to do it. (I studied the material but never took the exam.  I then got a traineeship out of it, and then a permanent position.)
 
If you are considering networking, then definitely Cisco, CompTIA, and ITIL will make you stand out.  Uni just takes too long and costs way to much for its benefit.
