I've heard that changes (or more appropriately, upgrades) on RAID type of a specific storage pool in Synology are feasible. Your thought can be accomplished by setting up a BASIC pool with just one drive, then "upgrading" the pool to RAID 1 after another drive is installed.
 
However, I would prefer no RAID, but rather periodical Rsync between 2 drives/pools for duplication on critical data, leaving movies alone (since they can be downloaded again once lost).

The x20 here goes for about 300 usd.
Price per gigabyte you can't do much better than that if you need that much storage per drive. 
I am using 8 8tb drives currently myself. 

Save a 1080 copy. There is a saying around plex... Never transcode 4k.

my understanding is that capacity / area rating is a function of the volume of air it can move vs. time. higher capacity/sq.ft. simply moves more air thru the filter per unit time. its like a power ranking. manufacturers allegedly are not always truthful to juice their stats. only really use capacity/area ratings to get a general idea of where a model sits within a manufacturer's hierarchy.  
 
2x300sqft is more than 350 so i'd say yea, 2 is probably better. they're both samsung so the numbers are probably somewhat useful as a general guide.
 
i acquired this profound knowledge but ended up getting a Blueair Pure 211+ from someone who was moving. I think blueair is a little more accurate and they rate 540 sq.ft.. I have ~1k sqft but also a ceiling vent w/fan so it works. would probably need more if I smoked 'a lot of cigarettes'

You have to tell the smoke to go through that purifier first before going to the walls and other rooms. 
 
Even if the purifier itself isn't snake oil, you should manage expectations. To be remotely useful the flowrate should be high. Like a few airchanges per minute unless you exhale directly into the purifier. 
 
I also would investigate what it certifiably remove. Smoke might have thousands of different substances.  

I recently had to figure out air filters because my cat is old/sick and has very strong odor as a result. I can post what I learned. not an expert or anything but I did a google a bunch of stuff.
 
1st and most important is to get filter with enough capacity. Generally overdoing it is probably better than under. This is usually listed in square feet (or meters...aka area). I looked quick at pages for the AX9500 and 53ax. The AX9500 lists 310sqft while the ax35 seems to be 350ft. Manufacturers play fast and loose with these specs (LTT Labs pls test), but within the same brand you can probably get a relative idea. I'd try to overshoot by a good margin, so 300+ sqft seems reasonable for your 160ish sqft room.
I'd worry more about capacity than the specific technology of the purifier.
 
next important part is to actually change the filter when you should, and consider buying replacements now so they don't get discontinued before you need them.
 
there are 2 kind of filter material that you may need to consider based on your goals:
 
There are 2 things that you might want to be filtering:
gasses -> carbon monoxide, methane in cat poo, etc. particulates -> ash, dust, pet hair, dander, some microbes, etc. to filter gasses and reduce cat poo smell, I needed a purifier with activated carbon, this is a bit more rare/expensive.
particulates are filtered by standard HEPA stuff found is basically every purifier.
 
I don't really know what causes cigarette smoke to linger or if the gasses are a significant source of lingering odor, but it definitely has both. I'm guessing it is more particulates than my cat poo tho since its the cig ash that is usually really smelly.
 
I think that if you're a bit optimistic if you think you can "eliminate all odor". Purifier will probably help prevent a significant amount of odor from leaving your unit at least but I don't think you'll be able to hide the fact that you smoke indoors if you invite ppl over.
 
I am a recovering cigarette smoker for almost a decade now. I am still surprised by how much more noticeable scents are since I've stopped.
 

Smoke is colour blind. It doesn't care what the colour of the object is, it just wants to stick.

Imagine not smoking anymore. Saves you them moneys for that air purifier, and saves you moneys on cigarettes.
 
Sidenote, the smoke will not just be in the air. It will be on everything in the room. My grandparents, which were also hefty smokers, needed to re-paint and apply new wallpaper once every 2 year, because of the discolouring. But that discolouring also contains part of the smell. An air purifier won't do what you want it to do. (unless MAYBE if you exhale into it, and make sure it sucks up everything)

I doubt that will do it since your PC is getting faster speeds than your phone, the antenna in the phone is the issue.
 
You realize that only speedtests will get you what you're seeing already, downloading services normally don't allow that bandwidth since it costs them a shitload to do so.

Actually it might, although I tend to get the opposite where my S10 goes faster than my PC.

Of course you could equally end up with the reverse, where the PC gets worse and the phone gets better.  There's just no predicting with WiFi.
 
In all honesty though if anything is going to go slower I'd want it to be my phone.  Its not like I will be downloading huge files to my phone every day, but my PC I'm often dealing with large files.  So personally if I was in this scenario, I'd leave it alone.

Upon doing some research, TVS is a locked-down propriety file format that Teamview only allows paying users to convert using their software.,
 
I'd look into using a software like OBS to capture video instead of using Teamviewers built-in system.

Iam doing the advanced scan as you said to be sure

Yes I moved it to a USB stick now I'm scanning offline from my main pc

If you reset it from that settings menu, you don't need a USB drive (assuming you want to leave Windows on the disk it is on right now, if you want to install it on another disk, you need a USB drive).
 
Keep in mind during the reset you can choose to keep programs/documents or not; but you should still make a backup of your files.
After that you can choose if it should only delete your files or do a full clean. As it will tell you in that dialogue; only choose the full clean if you are giving the device away to someone else. Delete only option is fine if this device will stay in your belonging, plus the full clean takes sooooo long.

You do you, I just tried to help you get a better keyboard, but yeah if the focus is on RGB sync I can't offer anything then.

i want to sync the rgb with icue or lghub. i dont wanna use 3rd app for it. 

i will go towards logitech, k70 is small and k95 dont have low profile keys.

oh and about the software, you need to use the logitech G hub to sync the lights
 
here is a video to help you with the switches:
and a review that highlights the advantages and disadvantages about the keyboard:
 

i personally will pick the g915 because of these reasons:
1. amazing wireless technology, just gives you the convenience of getting rid of that cable
2. low profile switches (though they are different with cherry mx, logitech has their own switch called the GL switches that comes in 3 types, clicky/tactile/linear) (i doubt that they are splash proof, just take good care of your keyboard)
3. RGB and battery life that can last more than a week (with RGB on, and months with it off)
4. media controls along with macro keys that you can program

This is either over multiple boxes as an aggregate or they are using custom software that bypasses this.

Samsung 970 EVO Plus on all but 4.0-capable boards.

I just wanted to add to this, if you've reused your password for steam anywhere else important, like email, bank, or otherwise, you should be sure to change all of those passwords as well.

It's not the official website at all - they're merely pulling images & other content from Steam's Akamai Technologies hosted CDN and mirroring the exact same login page, complete with stylesheets and everything. Pretty typical phishing scam that could be avoided in the future if you right-click the page, choose Inspect Element, and review where the content is being loaded from. Looks like the pubgshmon website is also using Steam & Humble Bundles trademarked logos without permission.
 

true, learned my lesson. first i was thinking of being fake but i random clicked like steam store and it was directing me to official website..bamboozled

For now, other than waiting, maybe report the link to Google

So that it may be blacklisted.
