But if I put the EFI partition outside the softraid solution, then the disk becomes unbalanced because there will be space on the second and third disk I cannot use because RAID dictates that all three disks must have identical storage. Losing 1GB just because of a 512MB ESP partition is...
so even though I know that I don't have the only copy of the original rushes (and that those rushes are backed up offsite), I also create a smaller 'used media only' project archive on my online/nearline archive storage (RAID) which I'll hold on to for 12-18 months (or longer)...
While the screws are identical, these rubber mounts aren’t, and it’s important that you install them on the replacement drive in the exact same location and orientation. If all four rubber mounts aren’t on the drive, look inside the PowerBook to locate any that may have fallen off. ...
A Fusion Drive configuration is not a RAID and thus provides absolutely no redundancy to protect against hardware failure. In fact, quite the opposite is the case – if any drive in a Fusion configuration fails, data on ALL the drives will be lost. This fact effectively doubles your chances...
Such considerations aside, the intense competition between Intel and AMD has benefited all PC users, because it constantly drives prices down. Recent aggressive price-cutting by both AMD and Intel has blurred the Athlon price advantage (as I write, this Intel have just lopped a third off the ...
I have set up the Ubuntu system through the quick create option within the Hyper-V manager. I thought this would give me 'enhanced mode' automatically, but I am not getting the benefits I was expecting. Specifically, the graphics are a bit sluggish, there is no easy way to share file...

Hard Drives: Crucial P1 1TB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD I have two monitors: 2K 144Hz and a regular 1080p 60hz. So at first, I tried to disable DOCP and revert everything back to stock because I thought my RAM is unstable. Turns out it wasn't it because on stock settings, I wou...
I have a Mac mini that I use as a home theater pc. The media and backups are on a 5-bay enclosure (no RAID) attached by USB. While watching a video, the unused drives will go into standby mode, which is good. But then, with no user activity, they will spin up, freezing the ...
None of the source dedupe products have torn up the market. For example, if Avamar became so popular that it was displacing the vast majority of backup installations, competitors would have been forced to come up with an answer. (The same could be true of CDP products, which could also be...
