    IMAP Email questions

    Hi, I have been using email for many many many years but i've always found bits of it to be confusing and i've learnt that understanding the foundation and what things actually do, rather than just being told how to fix things helps so much more. So here goes. I have a basic IMAP mail account...

    Mountain Mods U2-UFO

    Hey, I purchased a Mountain Mods U2-UFO case many years ago for a water cooled build. Unfortunately I broke the machine down years and years ago and the case has been sat to the side empty. I'm looking to get rid of it as I no longer have a need for it. I realise I can't sell it on here but...

    Home Network Issues

    Hey, I've been having some network issues for a while now so the other day I purchased a new router (Netgear Nighthawk R7000). I connected it to my existing Plus Net Hub One from one of its LAN ports to the Netgears WAN port. I disabled all extra features of the Hub One in the hopes of using it...

    Storage server questions

    Hey guys, Just a quick update about this. The actual server seems to be working well. What i'm trying to get working is sleep and resume. I have installed the S3 Sleep plugin and can get the server to sleep fine. When it comes to waking it up, if I manually press the machines power button...

    Storage server questions

    I today have got around to giving this all a test. I built a simple machine from old parts I had laying around. Nothing fancy but should do the trick. I put two drives in for now. Unraid is installed and configured. Looks like it's all working great! It's currently running the parity check but...

    iPhone 6s & 6s Plus Thread

    Looking likely that i'll upgrade my 5S. I try to stick to a 2 year cycle and that's worked nicely for me since I got the 3GS. Still deciding between the screen sizes though. The larger phone having the OIS is tempting me very much. In terms of capacity, I normally aim for the highest...

    ****The Official iPhone 5S/5C Accessories Thread****

    I'm boring so went with solid black! Really nice and minimal feel. The material is not silicon and not rubber but also not solid hard plastic. It works really well. My package also took a roundabout path to here it did Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Dubai, Germany, south donning ton and then to...

    ****The Official iPhone 5S/5C Accessories Thread****

    If anyone is looking for a new iPhone 5/5S or 5C case, I can highly recommend the ZooGue Social Pro. It fits perfectly, is light, adds minimal bulk. Volume and power buttons work perfectly. Easy to get out of a pocket and seems very tough and durable...

    SSD External boot drive on an iMac

    So If I got the OWC enclosure on it's own, installed my 120Gb SSD, connected to my iMac via USB 2 and then installed OSX on it as the main boot OS then it would perform faster than an install on a regular non ssd drive? It's just the usb2 I am worried about. I don't wish to kill the benefit...

    Hey guys. I have a spare 120Gb SSD sat in a drawer that has never been used. Was an RMA replacement for a faulty one. I would like to use this as a boot drive for my iMac but do not want to open the iMac up to install it. I know other companies can and will do this but I DO NOT WANT TO GO...
