ScubyUK got a reaction from Falcon1986 in Using own router Fibre nest
Hi, I appreciate this post is a bit old now, but I just read a blog post and apparently the new Fibrenest ONT now supports Bridge Mode.
I'll post the link to the Blog post below.

ScubyUK got a reaction from Jason 57 in Ripping my Movie Collection (DVDs and BluRays)
Cool, thanks guys.
I have over 600 DVDs/BluRays not including the TV Box Sets, but think I’ll sacrifice speed for quality where the Visuals/Audio warrant it (Star Wars, Marvel etc).
Well given that I already have an R5 3600 I’ll upgrade the GPU to an nVidia card next year once silly season ends and availability improves. I can always upgrade the CPU further down the road if need be. I have plenty of space in the GD08 case for 3 more 3.5” drives if need be, though to be honest, swapping the mechanicals out for SSDs is kind of appealing for a number of reasons. Cost is crazy though 🤣 (6 x 4TB WD Red drives for a shade under £3,000)

I find this very interesting!
I am in the process of encoding my DVD/Blu-ray collection.
I have been using MakeMKV then Handbrake. I guess I need to look at what settings I am actually using.
I took a break from that to convert some VHS, VHS-C, HI-8 and MicroDV tapes for friends.
Also had a break because I did a major upgrade. MB/CPU/RAM which I also added case, HDD&SSD and PSU (apparently 10 years old is a good time to upgrade? LOL)
Oh and an adapter to keep using my Blu-ray/DVD drive.

Day 3 - Disappointment
So, as it turns out, even though I managed to mount a AIO in the 5 1/4" Bay, there isn't enough clearance for the hoses to get over the memory modules.
Have order an Be Quiet Shadow Rock TF2 to take it's place.

Day 5 - Progress but a little disappointment!
So, the Be Quiet PSU I wanted is now not available until October, so have switched to a Corsair for the time being. Can always switch it out later.
Have installed the GPU though!

ScubyUK reacted to Mateyyy in Switching from Intel to Ryzen with out reinstalling windows
In the vast majority of cases you'll notice weird issues/behaviours when not reinstalling the OS.
I'd just do a fresh install so I know it works from the get-go, instead of waiting around to see what happens, and potentially ending up having to reinstall Windows anyway.

Looks like it'll be solid! Just finished a build last week with an Asus B550 F + 3600xt, guess that means we are build cousins!
