  • I’m happy to sell the 730s. I don’t know how to use them anyway.

    But kinda I’m hanging on by my thumbs with your list.

    i3 12100

    This is the CPU, I’m pretty sure.

    Gigabyte Gaming X Z690 DDR4 Aorus Elite DDR4 motherboard

    These are motherboards. Is one better than another?

    Unraid

    I’ll Google this. Disk management software?

    2x8gb DDR4 3600 (I’ve been using Corsaor LPX for the last dozen+ Unraid builds I’ve done)

    Wait. I just bought 256GB of RAM for one of the 730s. How is this getting away with 16GB?

    Fractal R5 case with a Thermaltake GX2 PSU.

    I have several computer cases from when full-size desktops were common. Should I just re-purpose one of them, or are new cases better?

    Will a setup like this run several streams at once? There are probably four max in my house at any one time and two to three from outside the house. It’s rare that all will go at once, but I’d like to be able to do it when they want.

    Also my Plex instances will lag regularly on some shows–Bob’s Burgers is a serial offender. I assume it’s got something to do with the file quality or encoding, but that’s the genesis of the 730s–if it’s a hardware issue, I thought overkill was the way to go. I guess the point is I’m happy to sell those 730s and build a box to do the job…I just want to make sure I’m building the right box.

    It’s also going to be a NAS for pictures and important files, but mainly it’s a media server for Plex. Or…I could use the existing NAS for that purpose. That’d be efficient.











  • This. God forgive me for even Beetlejuicing her, but PLEASE invite Angela on specifically to get in Mary’s face and scream at her.

    Mary, bitch, when you can whine you can breathe. Whining, “I can’t breathe” is proof that air is, in fact, unfortunately getting into your lungs.

    Amazing how she panics any time she’s called out on her bullshit. Since slapping her would be thought of as ‘wrong’ Brandon should just bolt.
