    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.

    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.

    How to recover lost files from Synology NAS DS415+

    Can't hurt. It was a known issue.

    How to recover lost files from Synology NAS DS415+

    Ah yes, the 'fake support' that is today's customer service. Have you tried contacting the nearest and see what they say?

    How to recover lost files from Synology NAS DS415+

    Great to hear! Did you reach out to Synology to see if they would replace/fix your unit?

    Swapped disks and now can't access UI

    Late to the party and you probably have aleady solved this by now, but if the web ui was gone, but the drive lights were on and the unit was doing 'something', I would just leave it powered for a few days until the lights stop and then reboot. By that time, it should be done with replication...

    Lenovo IX2-DL Asking for Original Drives After Power Adapter Failure

    Late to the party, but I know this NAS well as it is the next generation incarnation of the Intel SS4200e. SSH in and you have linux right there on the unit. You have to enable ssh access in the gui. By this time I think you've used a linux live cd to boot and get your data, so you should be...

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    I think this list is of all the intel chipsets the e1000 driver works with: https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/E1000.html Now I just need to search the chipset and look at card images until I find one that will work. I should have noted which card I initially tried as I don't remember it. :(

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    So I have now acquired yet another ss4200-e that was fully running and came with drives. So I think that makes 5-6? ss4200-e's, several readynas units, a couple of qnaps, the lenovo, as well as several synology units. My oh my how my nas family has grown--and the ss4200-e lives on. :) This...

    Another Cheap Moca 2.0 non-bonded adapter

    Glad you found a wireless solution. These are typically not top performance like a moca setup, but also 'good enough' can be good enough.

    Solved Great information. Thanks so much. Thank You!! have a docking station Its a dell WD15 wireless mouse or keyboard I am disabled

    You're welcome! Yep, there are a lot of different KVMs out there. One thing to definitely check out to save some cash is used or open box ones. For a trackball, I would see if you like a thumb or finger based one and go from there. If you end up in the thumb category, the logitech wireless...

    Intel SS4200-E Lives Again

    Totally understand! I've been only able to work on my ss4200-e units periodically over the last few years as I've had 'life' happen as well. :) Those 500GB WD Blacks will be perfect to test the ss4200-e. That's some extensive system reworking you have planned, so best wishes for all that to...
