I have a supermicro H11SSL-I and I installed Isxi in nvme slot that comes with the board. I also have an hba with about 7 disks attached to it. However when I try to boot I can’t see to find the nvme drive where the ESXi is installed. I will like to add it to the boot menu so that this issue doesn’t repeat itself. My boot is set to Dual and then legacy to UEFI

Ok i posted previeviously regarding the noise my PSU was making, but it turns out it was a connector issue. Apparently I had too many things running on the socket wall. After unpluging everthing and connecting the server directly, the noise is gone but I now have a new problem. the error message says: Lower Critical - going low - Assertion and then again Lower non-recoverable - going low - Assertion please see the attached image. The only changes I have made to the system since is a new CPU cooler from noctua. The fan is not stable and runs in waves, it goes up and then down over and over again. My system specs are as follow: CPU: AMD EPYC 7551 32 core. CPU COOLER: Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 (165 mm) (6422729) RAM: 256 Gigs ECC Motherboard: Supermicro H11SSL-i PSU: Be quiet 750 Pure Power 12M LSI 9207-8i 6Gbs SAS HBA for my trunas Mellanox MCX314A-BCCT 40Gb And a bunch of PCIe for GPU nvme and so on. Please take a look that the error screenshot.

I just order a Dream Machine SE, I have Gigabit internet and I want to know what WIFI access point do I need at the moment I have ordered a U6 Professional access-point for the living room and for the bedroom I am thinking of ordering the Access Point BeaconHD, Since I don't have Ethernet cables in the room. The setup is for a 2 bedroom apartment. As presented above is this solution feasible? or Am I going to face difficulties with wifi. Do I need to WIFI devices or is one good enough.

My introduction to Synology is leading me into a rabbit hole and with each day I am discovering just how little I knew before this whole adventure. I have a hard drive on my PC and I used it to backup all the data that I eventually transferred to my Synology, But I will like to keep this hard drive as it is and access it as an external hard drive with something like a Sabrent enclosure. The only problem after removing the drive from the PC and placing it into the Sabrent, I am prompted to initialize. I know that I will lose all the data if I initialize it. When I open disk management from my new laptop it says GPT protective partition. But when I insert it back on my PC I am able to access the data. I would like to know what solution exists out there to help me remove the GPT protective partition without losing the data and be able to access the data as an external hard drive.

No it’s doesn’t work. I tried

Minitool free version doesn’t work on windows server

I am looking for windows software, not Linux. thanks

I just purchased a synology nas, and I am currently running Windows server. I will like to free up a couple of hard drives but I need to move data around, hence to need to clone. mad it turns out, there’s almost nothing for free out there when it comes to windows server. I even tried a getting a free trial with no luck. Macrium reflect looked like a great option but for I’m only need to this once, so shelling out $160 will definitely be waste. if you know of a free tool I can use to clone the hard drive on windows server please let me know. thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I just bought a Lenovo P72 and currently in the process of upgrading the hardware. Lenovo says the max storage is 6TB, I have a 1TB M.2 drive which acts as my main drive(c) and I just purchased a Seagate 5TB barracuda. Here is the problem: - This configuration alone will get me to the max storage mentioned by Lenovo (6TB) - However, I will have an extra slot for storage available after the above-mentioned configuration because The P72 has 3 storage slots. - if I add another M.2 card, will this work? As a matter of fact, will this entire configuration even work? And finally, the reason for this config is that I travel quite a bit and I don't want to be remoting into my home all the time. The 5TB drive I mentioned is also in the link. Seagate BarraCuda 5TB Internal Hard Drive HDD – 2.5 Inch SATA

Recently I watched a Linus video called " Build Your Own SUPER FAST Thumb Drive!" (link below) and I was on board and I purchased the WD Blue 3D NAND 500GB and SilverStone enclosure. As soon as the purchase arrived I realized that i made a mistake. I should have gone with the 1TB flash instead of 500GB. My only question is will the 1TB work without with silver-stone enclosure? The reason I am asking that is because I want to store virtual machines on the external drive and the current setup just is just not enough. I am actually very impressed with the way this turned. 500GB in my pocket? I never thought of that. Build Your Own SUPER FAST Thumb Drive!

I am currently running a windows as my main machine, however I have an old drive with an OS still installed in it and I will like access the data stored in there. If I simply attached the old drive to my new system in an attempt to use it as a secondary drive will installed OS in the old drive cause issue or conflict with my new windows? I want to use the old drive without formatting it.

Can you share a bit more on how you go about doing the network transfer.

So after a few months of putting components together my rig is fully operational running windows server 2016, with over 100 gigs of ram. I am not big into gaming but I have a small steam library with around 15 massive games installed all over in my old PC, a windows 10 machine. My current challenge is how to move my steam library and my other games from my old computer to my new machines. for example, as you can see in the Gforce experience picture I have minecraft installed, I have league of legend, fortnite and other games that are not installed trough steam. for example destiny 2 was installed from battlenet. I now have a dedicated 2 terabyte drive just for gaming. That way i will be able to track everything easily. My question is that: Is there a proper solution in place for me to move my entire library to the new PC. A youtube link or a web link are all welcome. So far I have searched on youtube but i see many people using external hard-drive for this. Thanks in advance for your help

I am on the market for a high perfomence hard drive. I want to use this drive to store my video games and some virtual Machines. However when I was looking at the seagate line of drives: I noticed that the firecuda 2TB ssd was much cheaper than the barracuda ssh. but they are both ssd. Is there any reason why ?

The thing is my current mobo's limit for the ram is 32GB and I am sucker for ram. The mobo can handle up to a 2TB of ram. I feel that windows Server is the best option to support that.
