    For trade ScreenBeam ECB7250 Kit

    Ah, makes sense now. Sorry for your loss. Amazing how projects sometimes just completely change direction.

    For trade ScreenBeam ECB7250 Kit

    What the history of them? Why were they never used?

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    Thank you for the updates! Very well done! And now that you're on a different OS, the esata ports should also work if you wanted to expand the storage with an esata dock or tower. :) And the ss4200-e lives on. :)

    List of MoCa 2.5 Devices [Updated 8/25/20]

    That casing looks mighty similar to the gocoax case...

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    I'm with you--hence why I created this thread in the first place to give these great units a second lease on life if someone has one. You've got more experience than I do with linux so you can probably make it work how you want it to. One thing you could try is to use an older lga775 based...

    News January 15, 2025: The day DSLReports died

    Xenforo didn't even exist when dslrports started. In fact, it was probably just phpbb and vbulletin as platform choices.

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    The problem you're running into is something that happens a lot with the march of technology--older versions that work on older hardware can't be found anymore. :( I don't have any experience with running anything other than the built-in os, but others have run omv and I think they posted links...

    Yep, that's my thinking as well.

    News January 15, 2025: The day DSLReports died

    Just found out about this myself from a post on reddit of all things. And at first I was like no way. Until dslreports.com wouldn't load. :( I did a quick whois and the domain is still registered for two more years. So this doesn't sounds like a planned shutdown to me.

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    I would try keeping the dom installed and see if that makes a difference. The ide/sata controller in the ss4200-e is really custom in how it handles the interfaces and may not like the dom missing.

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    Love to help you in your quest! There's several people here that have gotten something like openmediavault and freenas to boot, and from my memory it comes down to this--there's an option somewhere in the bios for 'legacy' or 'enhanced' or 'ahci' or some sort of option for the ide and/or sata...

    SOLD 2x Motorola MM1025 2.5Gbps MoCa Adapters

    Nah, that's just a wiring issue which has always been the pre-requisite to moca working well. Even homeplug has its issues with wiring and then the bandwidth is still a fraction of moca.

    Thank you for the additional details!

    SOLD 2x Motorola MM1025 2.5Gbps MoCa Adapters

    Do these come with moca filters in the box? (those two silver things)

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    You're welcome! I think it will depend on what kernal xigmanas is built on and if it has the realtek driver built-in (most do as they consolidated their 1Gb and 2.5Gb drivers). If it does, it should 'just work'.

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    Yep! And the way it was built, I think it will be 20yrs+ before they start failing en-masse. These were made exceptionally well. And the best part is that they use standard mdadm for their volume so you can simply transplant the drives to any computer and boot a linux live cd/usb and have all...

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    The unit has gigabit from the factory, but know one I know has gotten dual gigabits to work 'out of the box' besides the experiment I tried. As far as 2.5Gb, these require a different driver (as do 10Gb cards), so the stock firmware won't support them. In my research even when people have...

    Migrating Data from one NAS to another

    Personally, I like being able to do the comparison separately. This way, the integrity of an archive can be checked independently of an update. I use windiff and winmerge and especially like winmerge's ability to compare 3 different copies simultaneously.

    Iomega px2-300d Adding More RAM

    And to add to this from almost a decade in the future, another 2GB module can be added for a total of 4GB ram, but the unit is picky about the module so some may work and others may not. I have read online that 8GB is also possible, but have not been able to find 4GB modules that work successfully.

    Migrating Data from one NAS to another

    I will use robocopy as it's the fastest even compared to rsync.
