    Assuming your desktop is connected via Ethernet to your wifi router, than this isn't an issue. Set up a network share and move the files that way.

    Any hard drive will support any file system. There is no hardware correlation.

    I'm not aware of a (reasonably-priced) USB <-> SAS protocol adapter. Using an external dock with a SATA drive is well within the realm of possibility though.

    I might be misremembering, but wasn't there a bit of discussion over whether the "service" they provide can be proven to have done anything? Like, how does the subscriber know that a) their personal info has (legitimately) been found, b) that the info holder actually has taken action to remove it, or c) that that removal has a tangible benefit?

    That board will work with any of the E3-12xx v3 Xeons, if you want to survey those options.

    Use punctuation once in a while... It's fine. It's only superficial damage.

    By extension, WinXP's Royal Noir skin was awesome

    Doesn't matter as V1 and V4 chips aren't compatible in the same motherboards.
  12. AbydosOne
    Depends on how many generations between the processors. IMO, reinstall for every new CPU, but that's not hard and fast.
  13. AbydosOne
    Reinstall Windows, especially if going from Intel to AMD (or vv).

    How big is the torrent vs how much free space is on the disk?

    I was under the impression that the two colors were reverse parallel LEDs (one color one polarity, other color other polarity).
  16. AbydosOne
    What happens if you flip the power LED polarity?

    Ahh, fair, that's the disconnect. Though I know some people don't have great luck with Storage Spaces.

    AbydosOne replied to Levent's status update

    ZFS allows mismatched VDEVs. The VDEVs themselves should be comprised of the same size drives for that reason, but that restriction doesn't apply to pooling VDEVs. Older versions of FreeNAS/TrueNAS would let you pool a single drive into any array, which was a one-way operation. I believe they've "removed" that "feature" since...

    I tried to set it up not that long ago and you can't on consumer Windows. You can use a RAID5 array made in Server in Home/Pro, but you can't make a RAID5 in Home/Pro. (Unless you know a way I don't, because I couldn't through Disk Management.)

    AbydosOne replied to Levent's status update

    RAIDZ3 can sustain a three disk failure, so in this case you would be fine. But what I think you're asking: no, each VDEV only contains its own data (which is a subset of the full stored data); if you lose a VDEV, you lose the whole pool. This is maybe the one real advantage to pooling VDEVs (I used to do it when I was getting into FreeNAS/TrueNAS/ZFS).

    AbydosOne replied to Levent's status update

    RAID-0 (striping), as far as I'm aware. Unless you add additional vdev(s) later, then it sorta balances between them based on how full each vdev is. You can gain some bandwidth, but I think for most "consumer" applications, there's not much to be gained over, say, two 4-wide RAIDZ-1s vs an 8-wide RAID-Z2...
  23. AbydosOne
    I can't speak to Storage Spaces, but the standard Disk Management RAID-5 is only available on Server builds of Windows.
  24. AbydosOne
    Are you sure they're SATA and not SAS or NMVe/U.2?
  25. AbydosOne
    Let's back up... why do you want it to not check?
