A solar cluster and whole house battery bank would do this for the majority of the day. You need to hook it into your AC circuit with microinverters, and then have a circuit switch to handoff power back and forth. You’d at least be sure to run off solar during the day.

You could probably use yours for the same, but you need that AC transfer circuit into your breakers. Never do anything like this without an electrician.

If you’re not using some sort of Domain mapping, then the use of the same mount by two different sharing services with different uids is going to break ownership. Doesn’t matter if it’s Synology or anything else.

NFSv4 domain mapping solves this by having the same domain configured in client and server. That’s probably your simplest option. From memory, I do believe Synology DOES set uid for whichever user is authenticated via SMB and NFS though, so are you using two different users for these mounts by chance?

If you don’t want to bother to setup LDAP or domain mapping, then just use SMB and that should solve the problem.

What’s the question?

People are absolute fucking suckers. Can’t fucking believe this.

If you’re not worried about the desktop’s age or ability, you can just expand the array by growing the volume with bigger drives.

You don’t want to run raid on a DAS unless it for some reason handles it’s own, and then you might as well just get a NAS.

If you’re simply looking for more disk slots, you could rebuild and transfer your array into another machine, but then you’re probably back to NAS being a cheaper option.

If you’re open sourcing something built to be deployed on an embedded device as pictured, there is a target platform (ARM, Arduino…etc) or reference board. They don’t mention specifically what that is, so it’s a custom board based on a RockChip. You wouldn’t be able to just take this and flash it to a board that doesn’t expect their customizations, is the point.

No mention of what their actual target hardware platform is, so must be custom. Wonder what solutions their newly opened code can run on. Doesn’t look like ESP code.

Lolol yeah right

Oops. Fixed.

This is like saying “my 30-year-old bike still works under very specific conditions”

Long stretch and big walk on that one to make some kind of a point I’m not understanding.

Chill situation

Read what OP is asking for maybe. You don’t need to argue with me, I’m just explaining what they asked for. N100 is totally fine for that.

Not at all. They have entire lines of gaming boards and GPUs.

Lol. 99% of all hardware manufactured uses closed source BIOS. It’s not a concern.

Less diverse?

They’ve been around since the 00s

Lol. They are one of the few manufacturers that have made consistently solid products and components for decades. Feels like many have already jumped over to being terrible.

Never had an issue. What was your friend’s problem?

Excuse me, Scoot Blickerdon, that would require people suffering technology struggles actually research their issues and do the legwork to fix them themselves.
