For another comparison I have another tower (TestTower) that I have been messing with and have been moving very very old drives in and out of. I ran HDSentinel on that tower and here is the output I got back: root@TestTower:~# /boot/hdsentinel Hard Disk Sentinel for LINUX console 0.03 (c) 2008-2009 [email protected] Start with -r [reportfile] to save data to report, -h for help Examining hard disk configuration ...

I know this to begin with though I was hoping to save it so that I could at least use it in the this test machine so I had as close to a "complete" test system as possible. I am really hoping that a 5.0 beta is coming soon but I realize there is more important things to catch up on. All the orders and now the inclusion of the Supermicro card to support to name a few.

For grin and giggles I went ahead and ran this tool on my server just a little while ago. Here is the output: root@Tower:~# /boot/hdsentinel Hard Disk Sentinel for LINUX console 0.03 (c) 2008-2009 [email protected] Start with -r [reportfile] to save data to report, -h for help Examining hard disk configuration ...

I know there is a -v option already that prints the version but perhaps that could become -v for "verbose mode output"? Make the default to not be verbose and then allow the more experienced users to have the option to see everything by specifying -v.

Please don't take this bold text as me yelling or anything like that, I just want people to pay attention to it. Anyway, would anyone who has S3 working PLEASE private message me so I can update the wiki (or update it yourself). Just send me: The motherboard you are using The version of unRAID you are using Your overall experience and happiness with S3 Also, please post this same info you send me in this thread so that I have an easy place to link to and others have a place to quickly glance at the list.

That is corret. My media frontend (SageTV) also reads the cover images of all my videos. So the caching script that I am using copies all .jpg files it finds to /dev/null Purko If you are using a modified version of JoeL. script it would probably benefit others to have access to it. If you could attach it to a post that would be great. I (or someone else) could then update the wiki to point to this "alternate" version. You may also ask JoeL if he could add another switch (or 2) to include certain files or certain extensions.

Same here, it use to work previously in Firefox but it will not work at all now. Pushing the calculate button does noting on my end.

I meant to, sorry. Yes, very interesting. It was distressing to learn how much storage you *actually* had... :-) What was your basis for calculating the cache size? --Bill I am assuming he used the smallest drive that was put into the calculations.

I did some quick searching on the modded xbox running xbmc and there does appear to be a little script that can be run to send the magic packet. Now, the problem i found is that the site that hosted that script is gone. So some more digging might be in order to find it. As for the browsing a share thing from a Windows machine, that i am not sure about. On a mac you can set up these things called Folder Actions that can be attached to folders. Do some google searching for 'Folder Actions Mac" to get an idea of what they do and maybe you can find something similar for the windows side of things.

Well, i figured i should go ahead and add some of my stuff in here for you all to see. I don't have any pics right this second but i will get some in the next week and update this accordingly. Anyway, i will ust go ahead and list components right now: Case: Rocketfish Aluminum Full-Tower Case. I really like this case. It has got plenty of room inside. The case seems to be a rebranded lian li that was sold by Best Buy. I got mine want they were getting rid of the last of there stock and i managed to pic up the last on for about $40. Motherboard: Abit AB9 Pro. I mainly got this board because of the massive amounts of onboard SATA ports. I ordered it refurbed from newegg when they still had it in stock. I think one of the NIC's on my board is bad but since i can't use more then one it was not that big of a deal. Processor: Intel Celeron E1200. I purchased this because i wanted something that was dual core but not supper high end. I know unraid does not take advantage of dual core but since i run BubbaRaid and a few other things on the server i figured it would not hurt to that the little extra power. Power Supply: CORSAIR CMPSU-550VX 550W. Corsair make very good and very quite power supplies. Silent PC Review has been recommending them for a while now and that site is the main reason i went with this PSU. I wish it was modular but beggers can't be choosers. RAM: just generic 2GB of Generic GSkill. Pictures to come later, i promise.
