    Short depth (12~13") rack mount server case for nas

    Yeah it's a couple of rack rails (8 or 12u I think) screwed into 2x4s that are screwed and braced to floor joists. The depth was to avoid blocking a power outlet. I did buy a rack shelf, but it seemed flimsy. I'll have to look into this mid mount thing though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Short depth (12~13") rack mount server case for nas

    It's been a while (mainly because the HP MicroServer N54L has been working wonderfully), but it's about time that I refreshed my NAS. I've got a very small rack mount setup that's close to the basement wall, and I'd like for my next NAS to be rackmounted. The issue is that I only have about...

    Need a stopgap machine in the next week; want a Mac - recommendations anyone

    No luck on the MBA. Low ram configs are a killer for me - I have to run a few instances of citrix through a VPN to get anything done. It's been barely tolerable on the system I've been using recently. Tried cleaning it out with compressed air (usually do that about 1x/yr anyway, but it...

    Need a stopgap machine in the next week; want a Mac - recommendations anyone

    Cliffs: - Need a new machine that runs OS X stably in the next week or two - Use it mainly as a desktop - Planning on getting the rMBP refresh this fall anyway, unless its abysmal - Would prefer to not overspend for what is sure to be a stopgap machine - Not too excited to void warrantees...

    Dynamic group calendar subscriptions

    Background: I'm in a training program with about 14 others. We have rotations that we alternate through each month. On all rotations, we have a mandatory lecture schedule. On some rotations, there are supplemental lectures that are mandatory. Goal: I want to manage two sets of global...

    ATT: Family talk with contract vs mobile share plus/minus next

    ATT reps haven't been the most helpful, so I figured I'd ask here before trying another storefront... Was waiting for the dust to settle regarding ATT's mobile share plans before switching. Now I'm having trouble making sense of how it works. Currently on family talk with 4 lines,3 smartphones...

    Continuous relative tracking around a pivot

    Found some pictures that illustrate the problem courtesy of others... original post (image from fine woodworking/google cache) There must be some way to attach a riving knife that tracks with the rotation of the sawblade. I'm still thinking about it myself, but figure there must be...

    Continuous relative tracking around a pivot

    Not quite sure the title is right, but it's the best I've been able to piece together. Link below is to a thread on another forum where a dude used some pretty expensive tooling to do what I'm trying to do for cheaper. Table saw mechanism Restoring an old table saw, Delta 34-441 (same as...

    Help me choose a car (probably buying within a week)

    Ya it was weird. Went in for an oil change, car stopped working <48hrs later or so. No clue what happened but the AAA tow person said there was oil "everywhere." Although unclear if inside the engine, on the pavement, or both. (It was dark) Definitely like some aspects of luxury brands. (Mainly...

    Help me choose a car (probably buying within a week)

    Spent a long time thinking about the tires vs car situation. The Camry also barely passed emissions testing this year (had to use some kind of additive for a couple days and retested), and parts of the dash squeak enough that its especially irritating to me but moderately irritating to my wife...

    Help me choose a car (probably buying within a week)

    Cliffs: Don't think I'm happy with any car on the market today for any amount of money. Don't think I'll ever be happy until they have autonomous cars. Looking at a 2015 Forester Touring vs a used 2012-2014 Volvo XC60 AWD with blind spot indicator package. Gut tells me that if we go Volvo...

    These password memorizations are driving me crazy

    My personal and financial passwords sit in a text file that's stored on an encrypted disk image- I have a password system and usually am able to guess within a few tries. My work passwords, on the other hand, require changing every 30, 90, or 180 days. Some of them stipulate that the last 10...

    Router with semi-simultaneous 802.11g/n/ac

    Any idea if this works with UniFi in play? I'm in the middle of a wiring project to get reliable wireless at home. Turns out all the walls are plaster over metal over wood lathe. (At least on a few test walls) So long story short, I need multiple APs anyway, and I'd like seamless roaming since...

    Licensing and DLC

    Well I suppose I'm comforted by the company of similarly frustrated people. I haven't really had that much spare time to spend on entertainment in the past few years, so I just didn't know how bad things have gotten. It's hard to believe that there hasn't been enough outrage to get the...

    Licensing and DLC

    I've spent the greater part of this evening trying to figure out how to get DLC for playable Magneto/Juggernaut/Psylocke onto Marvel Ultimate Alliance for my PS3. It does not seem possible. And it doesn't make sense to me. AFAIK, I can't buy the DLC from the PS3 store because Activision lost...

    Router with semi-simultaneous 802.11g/n/ac

    I know that in general a network defaults to the lowest common denominator. But is there a term or tech that designates routers that can auto negotiate back up quickly? ie: ps3, wii, wireless printer are 802.11g. Obviously they're not all in use all the time. The rest of my stuff is 802.11n...

    2013 Annual Anandtech Tax Time Thread!

    Recommend a vacuum for delicate carpets/rugs and pets

    Thanks for the suggestions Meghan! I was afraid I'd have to look into bagged. In the past I've avoided them specifically because I don't like bags. I didn't mention it earlier, but weight is a factor as well. So it looks like I'm between the Kenmore 31150 and Hoover UH30600. We already own a...

    Recommend a vacuum for delicate carpets/rugs and pets

    Need a good vacuum for ~75% hardwood and ~25% delicate rugs. The rugs were a gift. All I know is that they were ridiculously expensive, and if I destroy/damage them, there'll be hell to pay. If I had to guess, they're some kind of wool woven in a relatively tight pattern. One of them is also an...

    International package forwarding

    PS3 Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 DLC

    I realize the game was released in 2009 but I just got around to buying it. (And it was a challenge to find a copy in reasonable condition!) Anyway I'm a casual gamer so I just run stock firmware and all that stuff. I want to play with magneto and wolverine combos. And juggernaut sounds like...

    Smartswitch vs router (home network)

    My D-Link DIR-825 B2 is about to die. As it stands, it covers most of the house on the 2.4GHz band pretty well (craps out exactly at the back door). 5GHz is a bit more dicey, especially upstairs. Anyway, I want to move all my gear to the basement to clean up the area behind my TV. I also plan...

    Apple You Need These Services: iPhoto Match and iVideo Match

    Could you even get non-cloud non-syncing storage for that price? The last I checked, no pricing approaches what you're asking. I'm pretty sure the deal sites would go haywire over pricing of a 5TB WD green (avg warranty 1yr) for $60 or a WD Red (2yr warranty) for $120 or a WD black (5yr...

    DIYer's: skewed door (door itself)

    The exterior door to my garage is racked. I eyeballed it and then double checked against a speed square: the door itself is skewed. It's a really old single pane glass top/wooden door and the seams around the exterior segments are visibly giving. We don't use the garage enough (or store anything...

    EEs: Solar charge individual AA, use in series at night

    This is getting complicated. I could probably source a ~4.5 V panel, but then I'm in almost the same situation. I have no idea how to have it charge 3 AA's independently when they are wired in series for the LED lights. Also, I looked at the light to voltage converter: I might be in way over...

    Swapping SSDs preserving all applications

    Cheapest source for 27" iMacs?

    Thought about a display with mac mini- I don't want to deal with yet another set of wires for speakers, so I'd be looking at the 27" 2010ish displays. They're still pricey, but the main thing is that I'd have to shop for two items. If I started looking at more recent mac minis, their GPUs are...

    Cheapest source for 27" iMacs?

    I'm already a mostly Apple household. Right now I run a 15" MBP slotted into a hengedock 99% of the time, powering a ~23" 1080p panel. It's alright, but I think I'd be better off with just an iMac, mobility be damned. My general use is very light, but I like large screen real estate, so any of...

    ATSC Worth it? (For tivo)

    Errm... so I'm mixing my terminology up. The Premiere4 has 4 tuners that only support digital cable. The older Premiere has 2 tuners that can do digital cable, OTA, or analog. But to clarify- you'd advise looking for the older Premieres so that I can go OTA if/when I want, correct? Edit: I...

    ATSC Worth it? (For tivo)

    Looking into buying another TiVo. Presently they sell the Tivo Premiere, which has two tuners that can do either ATSC or NTSC. They also have the Premiere4, which has four tuners that can only do NTSC. We're paying for cable at the moment. Longer term, we may elect to drop cable if one of the...

    ZFS pros- can I do this? (using NAS4Free)

    I want to set up a 6 disk RAIDZ2 in NAS4Free. In an effort to save money, I was going to repurpose some old 512k sector drives in this new array. If I mix the 2x512k sector drives with 4x advanced format drives in one vdev, will my performance hit be drastic? If it will be drastic, how much are...

    What kind of mattress and where to buy?

    Sears is running a decent mattress sale. A visit there might be worthwhile. I'm not a fan of haggling so the mattress specialty stores are out. I don't have a Costco near me, and if I did, I don't own a truck capable of carrying it home. Same goes for Sam's, with the addition that I outright...

    Buying a couple of WD Reds this week- who packs the best

    Dumb question: exit terminal commands

    Dumb question: exit terminal commands

    What router should I buy in the next 2 weeks?

    I need to buy second router. I own a D-Link DIR-825 with DD-WRT and stock antennas, which is covering my apartment. But I need to also cover a 2-story ~1800sf house with plaster walls. I can either buy a new router for the house, or move my router to the house and buy one for the apartment...
