Afternoon all! My SWANN DVR system is dying. Keeps locking up and needing to be down powered and restarted (reboot not playing ball for some reason). I have a server on 24/7. What would I need to utilise this to take over the SWANN system? Hardware and software? Currently have 5 channels...

Hey all, found the problem. A memory module failed! It was one half of TeamGroup Vulcan GOLD 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (TLYED38G1600HC9DC01)! RMA requested :)

Ok, I removed the GFX card, plugged in the HDMI and switched on. Still the same. No Signal and after a few seconds switches itself off and restarts over and over. I've also tried moving the memory modules around and reset the CMOS. Any further suggestions please? Getting a bit worried now as...

Ah, I will check that tomorrow! Don't recall seeing HDMI port on it but at work until the morning. Any other ideas to try?

Forgot to mention board is gigabyte ga z97p. Memory is Vulcan 8gb. Can't remember cup spec off the top of my head.gfx is probably 8 years old ish

So I was in the middle of backing up my laptop this morning when I get a backup failed notification from windows server 2012. I duly check the server, the hdd light is on but no noise or flickering. I reset it, and it powers up for a few seconds, then powers down again. So far I've...

The esata connection is an external port in my 3/4 year old dell laptop. Based on intel processor, no idea about sata cotroller. Bios is up to date for laptop. It's working, albeit very slowly! Over 24 hours now and still backing up. Only getting 10Mb per sec as it's over an old network...

Morning folks. The Akasa website says it's not an issue with the enclosure! I plugged the drive directly into the motherboard and formatted it as 4TB. Here's the weird part. Plugging in with USB 2.0, it reads as 4 TB as a normal drive. Plugging in as eSATA it's not recognised and when I go to...

Thanks guys. Will give it a try tomorrow. Off out for the rest of the day now :) Will let you know how I get on!

No. I can see 1677.90GB unallocated when I delete the volume. To format I have the options of NTFS, exFAT or ReFS. None seem to give me full HDD capacity. According to Akasa, it's not a limitiation of the enclosure.

I've formatted it as GPT and tried extending the volume. Still won't allow me to go over 1.64TB? Also tried deleting volume and creating. Any ideas?

Just bought a new WD Red 4TB drive. Just put it in a USB enclosure and it's showing as 1.64TB. Using Windows 8 (64 bit) and an Akasa enclosure. The support on Akasa website says; Akasa External USB, and eSATA enclosures using HDD's over 2 TB's cannot be formatted on Windows 32-bit operating...

Thanks again guys. Will probably be making a cheeky purchase this afternoon :-) Last thing is an additional hdd. Am I right in thinking the wd red are good for low power storage or am I way out of date ;-)

That's a much better spec than I was hoping for! Thanks guys :-) 2 minor concerns. I've heard some not so positive things about gigabite boards and have never heard of psu make. Whats the long term reliability of these?

Morning All :) I'm looking for a new build spec. Minimum requirements are a 64 bit proecessor (pref intel) I need; PSU Motherboard (onboard GFX is fine) Memory Processor + heatsink I already have a case and spare HDD's. Budget is around £300 please!

Good evening experts! I've got an old AMD 3000 running WHS (the early edition, 2003?), and unfortunately it's on it's way out. Random reboots and critical errors popping up all over the place. So, I'm looking at getting a replacement! I'm happy sorting out the hardware side of things but, I've...

Turns out it's a driveshaft (or UJ) worn. Bit of a relief.

I've had a little play with it now and this morning had all 4 wheels balanced. There is little change but I'm pretty sure it's road speed related now Around 60mph it starts vibrating, at 65 it's at it's worst. The passenger seat shakes-a lot!. If I accelerate through it, the vibrations all but...

Looking into it, it is looking more like a DMF, although going to play with the drive shafts and prop shafts tomorrow morning. Cars, just like women. Great when they're behaving themselves.... ;)

If the wheels are out of balance, would it not still shake/shudder with the clutch in at speed?
