Long time technical architect - started with Novell Netware and some Unix, now mostly in the Microsoft unified comms type stuff.
Love tech, I love travelling, and so far my life has been pretty bloody epic. This is my channel where I talk about all of those things that I love.
What should you expect from this channel? An honest view about things I'm interested in and am experiencing. I'm a mostly upbeat sort of guy, but we all have bad days - I'll share those too.
Always tend to respond to stuff - have a point/question - get in touch!
is it possible to install a graphic card on windows 3.11? with generic vga driver is totally unusefull , i have thousand of application compatible with windows 3.11 but work at last with 800X600 e 65000 color palette
I got an error message that said I couldn't install. Said to check my internet connection and disk space. So frustrating!! I just want a previous version of office that doesn't look like crap!
Doesn't work in my TS-464. Its a new device. The system volume is even located on SSDs. The qnap script to log the filesystem accesses doesn't show anything related to the HDDs, too. Still there are random access every couple of seconds or minutes. No spin down. "sudo hdparm -Y /dev/sd?" does spin down my drives actually. But due to a RAID 5 configuration it seems to get back spin immediately again. Which kind of makes sense.
Could you please tell me the process time. Using your case 6GB email account per user. Create the PST process time? Upload the PST process time? Batch Process the PST process time?
Thanks for this. I’ll keep my Promise Pegasus R6 from 2011 and put 18TB drives in it rather than buying a new unit. Only TB1 but I get nearly 800MB/sec Raid 5 and it has been totally reliable. It’s hardware raid which, I think, is key: I don’t trust Softraid at all.
HDD spindown used to work on my TS-228A, until they released a patch a few years ago. Now it logs to my drives every 5 seconds and they wont spindown anymore. Cannot turn loggin off anymore either since we now have this atrocious Q-Log center. I will never buy this piece of garbage brand every again, dumb amateurs.
Hi 👋 Very good video and explanations 🙏 I am a musician and I work with a lot off 32bit apps I wanted to ask you if I will buy an M1 Max computer can I allocated the all cors and all available ram to work on the virtual machine? I mean if I could use all the power of the computer to work on parallel with mojave Mac OS opraiting system? Thanks in advance for any knowledge thet you can share and provide 🙏🙏🙏
Software based RAID on macOS should only be done with DiskUtility (which is pretty limited). The alternative is hardware RAID which is not ideal because there is no easy way to verify what the controller is doing.
You finally solved my issues on this topic! Thanks very much. One residual question, how did you get your indicator to go green (the light) mine is yellow. And does it matter? Thanks for the great video!
Im a bit confused here... I got a M2 pro Mac mini and an external SSD from samsung called the T7 ,wire speed is half of this, but I'm a noob so my question is is it worth cueing a Crucial P3 plus 4 Tb drive ? will I get better speed on a Mac mini M2 with The latest thunderbolt 4 ports ? or if not which drive I should buy is these results are the best this enclosure can do ? sorry I didn't get all of your video cos English isn't my mother tongue, but I hope you get my question ^^
Hi. Can you tell me if it is normal for this SSD to overheat so much? I mean, even when the drive is idle it still has good amount of heat. Please tell me if this is normal.
Great video. This got me out of a bind recently. We discovered that an app in our environment stopped functioning after a recent office update. The documentation from Microsoft didn't work, but following the process in this video worked correctly. Kudos mate. Appreciate your help.
I suspect you might be having a problem with the combination of soft raid and OS X and not an actual problem with the hardware itself. I have multiple copies of the unit but the USB3 version and use them with a FreeBSD file server and ZFS and they have been nothing but fast and rock solid. Maybe it might be thunderbolt three, but I doubt it. The USB3 version does 10G speeds, so if your Macs have that as USB3, you can probably find out pretty quick whether it was a hardware problem or software problem.
basically yeah its an computer inside your computer inside that computer you can test whatever you want its like an box theres like walls that prevent the little pesky viruses from going on your main but please do note, while being on the internet, you can still enter your personal info to strangers, so enter fake information.
Great video! However I'm stuck at the point of uuploading files through AZCopy. It seems I need to provide authorizazion credentials. How do I do that? Thank you!
I own the OWC ThunderBay 4 mini, with Apple Raid 0, with a Mac mini. No I don't use their raid software. I also use Samsung SSD on this system. It backs up my MacBook Pro with Time Machine and never had an issue with it. Before I purchased this unit I read a lot of reviews about their raid software not working correctly. So, I knew from the start I wouldn't use their software. I work off this system almost daily and never had an issue with it to this day. I like it because I can switch the Unit from the Mac mini to my MacBook Pro and macOS just reads it like a big drive. But for most people that need the Raid Support I would tell them to get an NAS with 10G network support. It is about the same price and you can do so much more with a NAS unit like Synology then you could with just this Unit. I just needed it for fast file access that is why I got this unit.
I found that this method did not help me. I wanted to install and old version of office 365 on to a win7pro OS. this method and others involving the command prompt and even and old version of the installer(setup.exe) did not work, kept getting the "Microsoft Office Has Stopped Working" error! Then I found that I (5years ago) made a 2018 office365 install disc DVD which work fine! just install it then let upgrade and it upgrades to Version 2002 build 12527.22253 Excel 16.0.12527.22079 then turn off updates
Hello, thank you very much for your video, it is the best I have found on RU-vid. One question, I have a SAMSUNG 860 Evo sata SSD installed in a Retina 5k, 27 inch, 2019 imac with 3.6 core i9 octa-core processor and 128 gb ram, honestly I don't feel that it really works fast, could you help me check if the installation of my SSD is correct? thank you so much. I'm from Mexico, hug
