  1. Advice setting up NAS


    Any advice would be appreciated as I really haven't got a clue how to set up what I want and the more I research the more confusing it seems to get.

    The sd card on my phone got corrupted not long ago, luckily I managed to get all my pictures from it but it given me a kick up the bum to get my pictures and files backed up.

    So I've connected a 32gb memory stick to my bt home hub 6, I've set it up and now can see the files on my laptop and home pc, I belive that I have created a Nas?

    I'd like now to be able to transfer files automatically from my phone to the nas which is on all the time, then when my pc with lots of hard drive space is turned on the files from the nas will get backed up over 2 or 3 drives on the pc.

    Do I need to install something onto the memory stick in the home hub to make it a nas or is classed as a nas and do I need to install software on the nas to be able to connect to it with my phone to automatically transfer the files?

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Advice setting up NAS

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
