According to CPU-World, the Intel Xeon D-1571 has been made available by Intel. See their product page for more details. I cannot find it on Intel's ARK (which I only access thru Google searchs, so it might be on Intel's site even though I haven't found it). But the Xeon D-1571, despite...

Wow! It's almost two weeks of your salary.

It is cold outside now (around -15°C here, dropping down to -26°C during the night for the upcoming two nights). Did you have time for that project? If not, now would be a good time.

I meant the story behind the left shoe. Late fifties.

Was it a North Korean woman, or a South Korean woman? Here's the story being the left shoe. Might also be why it was under the bed. They sell specialized underwear for these kind of incidents. Since you approach your senior years, it wouldn't be unusual to consider start wearing those.

The client is still part of the organization, but there are 2 .ost files in \users\username\appdata\local\microsoft\outlook. Only one of those (the smaller one, containing only 2 years of e-mails) is used by Outlook. The larger and older one is simply ignored. The larger .ost file doesn't...

It's probably more because they prefer that people with computers more than 7 years old replace their systems rather than keep using them.

I have a bunch of .ost files that are stored on users' systems and that I don't know how to open. They aren't the files pushed by the Exchange Server (2010 in this case) when you create an account. They are remnants of past accounts and still contains relevant messages. I've read about OST to...

I prefer the software I use to be lean and efficient, not bloated. Hence, Spartan is a better name for a software than Fatso, Sumo or Buddha.

I thought the shot was taken in late afternoon, not sometime in the morning.

If you have windows on the north-eastern side of the house, they are pretty much useless with the wood fence being so close. Nice panel arrangement. Is there a reason why the panels are disposed horizontally instead of vertically? Are they more efficient like that? It would have also fit...

That's how seriously IBM's management takes its shareholders' interest. Source Glad I don't own any stock in Big Blue.

Indeed and the split between HP Inc. and HPE only made it worse. It's faster to search what you're looking for on Google (which often provide a link to what you need on HP's site) than trying to find it by browsing HP's website.

So far, I haven't been able to contact the guy in Oregon. The laptop is supposed to be waiting for him at his hotel. He should have received it by now. Maybe checking his e-mails won't be the first he'll do when he'll get the laptop.

I would try to revert back to the previous GPU driver version. Bugs in newer driver versions happen.

Most of the times, yes, it cleans the exterior of your car. More the horizontal surfaces than the side panels though. With my previous car, the winshield washer motor died and I often cleaned my car's windows just by throw snow on them and then removing it. It was quite effective. I did this...

I ended up telling him to order a laptop at provantage.com and pay for next day delivery. The exact same laptop we order here (an HP ZBook 15 G2), he'll pay it ~375U$ more than what we pay for here. I'll know tomorrow late afternoon if he'll receive it on time or not.

I'd rather not risking being f*cked at the borders.

Those 3 are present, but didn't pop when I search the yellow pages for a computer store. Thanks. I'm browsing their inventory.

One of our guys is working on a plant launch at Roseburg, Oregon. The hard drive of his laptop died. He is not computer-savy enough to reinstall and reconfigure an OS if we just send him a new HDD. The best would be a new computer. Time is critical. The nearest thing to a city from Roseburg...

Seen here If this thing can run Linux 64-bit, that would great. The 59$ model with wifi plus another 10$ to bump the RAM to 2GB seems like a very interesting deal. It doesn't do 4K @ 60Hz, but still, it beats everything else in this price/power range.

Most of the snowfalls occur to the south this year. Here, we are well below average for this time of the year. If it continues like this, we'll have a record-low for the amount of snow by the end of Winter. It's going to be dry this Spring and early Summer. Not good for agriculture.

Does it clean the air a bit? Everyone I know that went to China in the past ten years told me that just breathing the air is a health hazard. Someone told me his lungs were burning on the first morning he woke up there and that his eyes were reddish from all the pollution in the air. It...

This would be licencing Hell. Why do you want to try this? BD sync and replication? We have two separated SQL servers at the office and they are inside VM on a cluster. The cluster is replicated to another remote cluster. I fell we are quite safe. I'm not a DB guy though, so maybe I'm...

I know ZFS can be used on Linux, but the last time I've seen comparative benchmarks, its implementation was slower than on BSD and of course Solaris (where it came from). It might have changed as it was more than a year ago.

AMD64 is what you want and yes, it works with Intel's x86-64 processors. What you don't want is IA-64, which is for Itanium processors and which isn't compatible at all with anything you can possibly have at home. Many others here have deeper Linux knowledge than me, but I've installed and...

In your case, it would be more appropriate to install pfSense instead of Linux. See this guide. It's fairly easy.

There's quite a leap in performance between the old Xeon E56xx or X56xx and the Xeon E5-26xx. That's partly why there's also a rift in used selling price between those two generations as well, although with the recent price fall of the Xeon E5-2670 (Gen 1) on eBay, that gap has narrowed (but is...

A new browser supposed to stop advertisements from tracking you https://www.brave.com/#about Based on Chromium and from Mozilla's previous CEO. It is currently still in development (version 0.7). I plan to try it when it'will reach version 1.0.

The automated upgrade didn't work for the passage from DSM 4.3 to 5.0, but the manual upgrade from the web GUI did the trick. The upgrade from 5.0 to 5.2 was a breeze. No data or configuration were lost.

That's standard for HP, Dell, Lenovo servers. Only Taiwanese server manufacturers (SuperMicro, Asus, GigaByte, etc) ship with the drive trays included, at least to my knowledge.

Yes it helps. At least I'll have some kind of how-to guide in case it refuses to perform the udgrade via the web UI. Thanks.

It's been a while since I've done that. I have a Synology NAS with synchronisation issue to another unit with a more recent DSM version. The older unit is using DSM 4.3, while the newer one is running version 5.0.xxx. The plan is to upgrade both to the latest version (5.2.xxx). I do not...

He was the bad guy in my favorite Christmas movie.

I see your 4 HGST (not Seagate) He drives (disks 1 to 4), the Intel NVMe (disk 6) and the Samsung (disk 5). Which one isn't there?

He bought a server kit and the CPU was put in by the manufacturer. The CPU (E5-2630 v3) doesn't have integrated graphics, as it's the case with all Xeon E5. The graphics controller is an ASPEED AST2400, a very common controller use in server motherboards. There is no reason it shouldn't...

It indeed seems to be the best bang for the buck. Their XPA-200 also seems very nice, although twice as expensive, but it can push more power than the ELAC can accept, which is probably bad since I could blow up the speakers if I turn the nob too much.

It turns out that for this particular item, Amazon.com is willing to ship to Québec. The shipping and borders fees are high, but it's still way cheaper than buying it from their canayian site. So... what's the best affordable amplifier these days? Anything less than 300U$ standing out?

The Intel 750 is the best of both. I very much doubt that you have Seagate helium-filled drives at the moment. I don't even think they are available yet. What you probably have are 4x ST8000NE0001, which are Enterprise NAS drives, but they are not filled with helium.

I'll show you something that deeply pisses me off. ELAC B5 Debut Series on Amazon.com : 230U$. ELAC B5 Debut Series on Amazon.com : 1063$CDN. Today, 1U$ is worth approximately 1.45$CDN. So the 230U$ speaker pair should be sold ~334$CDN. It is more than 3 times that. The worst part is that...

Have you considered Joomla? I've never used it, but heard it mentionned several times. It's supposed to be easy to maintain. There's a lot of support for it too.

You could do worse than that. It is an old PSU model. I used to sell it five years ago. I haven't had any problem with those. A Seasonic SSR-360GP would be better, but it's 30$ more and not really worth it on a low-budget build.

I'll give it a try, although I think I've already used some Solarwind product in the past, so I should find something familiar. Is there a limit to the free version?

Most of the stuff I listen to is from those decades too and I'm older than both of you. While I agree that Bowie was an influencial artist of the past century, I disagree that he was the most influential. The two most influential were probably Elvis and the Beatles. I don't like both of them...

Collecting Netflow information on our enterprise network has long been on my to-do list, but I've procrastinated up to now. Cisco list a few free solutions. For those of you who have implemented this, which software do you use?

You've probably found it, but this PDF list most available options for the RD550, along with the part numbers. The 4-port gigabit NIC for this server is the 4XC0F28740 and it's worth 90$.

Wow, that's an awesome price! The lowest I can get the same system here is ~1585U$. I've only worked with the T140 and T440 series of Lenovo servers, but Ddrueding has experience with the RD650, which is the 2U equivalent to the 1U RD550. I hope for you that Lenovo hasn't cheapen up the top...

50% of a 300W PSU is 150W. The difference between a Platinum and Titanium rated PSU at this power is 2W or 3W, so it's not worth the development effort for the manufacturer or the additional expense for the end-user. Even at 300W, the difference between both ratings isn't worth it IMO. At...

Here's the CrystalDiskMark report from the data partition I made using Storage spaces on our file server : It's a combined 2x Intel DC S3500 400GB RAID 1 plus 6x Seagate ST1200MM0017 RAID 1 array, with auto-tiering. It isn't bad, but I hoped for better than that.
