  3. Thank you! I'd do it all over again...USA! I have a great 'old school' story to tell you guys. I was driving down the street in Jefferson, Ohio and it was a residential area so very slow speed. I saw a lady walking from her house on the lawn, and she was toting an amplifier! She was heading straight for the curb where there was trash...I stopped the car and asked her what she had there. She was struggling with the weight of the amp, so I knew it was something good. It was a Sansui AU- 7700 in beautiful condition. I said "Are you junking this"? She said "Yes, it doesn't work". I promptly and carefully took the amp from her arms..."Can I have this"??? SURE! take it. I loaded it in my car and she went back in. Just as I was driving away, she came out yelling, "Hey, I have this too'! It was the original laminated set-up sheet in perfect condition! WOW! a complete treasure! I'll post some pics here soon...the ones I have are too large...can't post them.

  10. That is what I have been doing with my network. Upgraded wireless APs, to gaming routers for better coverage, put all my wireless on one LAN segment. Making sure my IOT stuff is all on a different LAN segment. And I will finish with getting the wife off of our LAN and on to a VLAN to separate and secure her from our LAN. I don’t want her work (and the inexperienced IT people working there) to even know what we have here. I don’t trust them. As soon as they paint the office, that separation will begin.

  11. While several comments aren't NAS or Streamer related specifically, the infrastructure plays an important role in my mind making those items play nice and be reliable. In fact it was my desire to have a proper file server for all my audio and video content that pushed me harder than anything else to upgrade the infrastructure. Gigabit Ethernet does not cut it for me. I'm too impatient. With the advent of SATA SSD and then NVMe SSD tech I had to upgrade a couple of times and finally have settled on 10Gbit fiber between servers and workstations. My Audio PC and Home theater PC's are still on gigabit because that's all they need to consume content but moving that content around between servers and workstations is just too slow at 114MB/sec that gigabit provided me. When I drag several GIGs from my workstation to a server from an NVMe drive, it moves at about 1000MB/sec until the buffers on the target server fill up. Moving to UnRAID servers will allow the installation of NMVe SSD caching drives as large as 8TB I guess (current max). LOL...... I guess I'll have to go to 40GBbit fiber next.... 🙂 It never ends does it? Working for myself and from home I got the business side on a different subnet some time ago. I have no idea what sort of crap/Mal-ware is installed on peoples boxes and do what I can to limit exposure to potential problems. I've done a few layout "re-works" myself here at home in the last 14 years allowing me to expand my vocabulary.
