#now all the files and folders on my old storage drive have a bigger home!

[britishchick09]

when i switched from vista to windows 7, my dad copied everything to a new drive and 500 files had the 'created' date as the copy day, which messed a lot of stuff up! :/

but we recently discovered robocopy and used that to transfer my files to a bigger drive... and all the dates are right! :D

Would You Lie With Me and Just Forget the World?

by: mldrgrl Rating: PG Summary: A little ‘what if?’ AU during Fight the Future, if Scully had gone to Salt Lake City.  Inspired by the wonderful little poem Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol.  (Sweet midnight, Anon, I think this fits nicely with your prompt as well)

“Salt Lake City, transfer effective immediately.”  She hesitates in his doorway for only a moment, and then she turns to leave.  “I have to go.”

His head is spinning and his heart is racing.  He springs up from his desk to chase her down, to stop her from leaving.  He makes it to the hall, but all he can manage is her name.  She stops at the elevator, her back to him.  He sees her ball her hands into determined little fists and the way she takes a deep breath and straightens her spine.  When she turns, the wobble of her chin and the tears in her eyes threaten to break the composure she’s just worked so hard to muster.

There’s an ache in his chest.  He wants to tell her everything in that moment; how much she means to him and how much he needs her.  He’s as afraid that she’ll think he’s only talking about their work as much as he’s afraid she’ll know he isn’t talking about work at all.

“Is this...is this what you want?” he asks.

The elevator doors open up behind her and she turns away from him to step inside.  He moves a few steps closer and then she turns around again and he stops.  She only gives him a glance before bowing her head.  The doors close and he’s alone in his hallway.  He doubles over, hands on his knees, trying to catch his breath.  It feels like he’s been kicked in the gut.

With Scully sent to Utah, Mulder is reassigned to counter-terrorism.  He hates it.  Hates the work, hates the other agents in the unit, and hates his new superior.  They’ve got him chasing down suspicious purchases of fertilizer and harassing confused farmers day in and day out.  Shit detail.  He’d quit, but he doesn’t like the thought of how smugly satisfied They’ll be knowing he had given up.  Easy as it would be to search the directory for her new information, he doesn’t even contact Scully.  Nor does she contact him.  He doesn’t drive by her old apartment and he takes her number out of his speed dial.  He refuses to be broken.

He lasts six weeks.

Six long, torturous, miserable, and painful weeks and then he’s at the airport one Friday afternoon, booking the next flight out to Salt Lake City.  For four and a half hours he gorges himself on tiny bags of peanuts and shreds his cocktail napkins into tiny pieces on the tray table in front of him.  He rents a car and drives the few miles to the field office in the area, solely relying on hope and a hunch that she’ll be there.

His badge gets him in the door without issue, but he can’t go aimlessly wandering the halls.  He stops a woman pushing a cart, assuming she’s a mail clerk that will know every office blindfolded.  Luck is on his side.  When he asks where he can find Agent Scully, she tells him to take the stairs down one flight, third door on the right.  He takes a few deep breaths in the stairwell and wipes his sweaty palms on the front of his pants before he heads down the hall.

He passes a janitor’s closet and a storage room.  The third door is missing a real nameplate.  Someone has scribbled SCULLY onto a piece of lined paper, ripped that in half, and taped it to the empty slot where a nameplate should be.  The door is open, but he knocks anyway, just a few light taps with his knuckle as he enters.

Scully is hunched over a small table in the corner, squished between a bookcase and filing cabinet.  The room is cold, dimly lit, and not a window in sight.  It’s barely bigger than a broom closet.

“You can take the girl out of the basement,” he says.  “But, I guess you can’t really take the basement out of the girl.”

Scully blinks as she looks up and drops her pen on the table.  She looks the same to him, but changed somehow.  Her eyes, he realizes, look grey.

“Mulder,” she says.  “What are you doing here?”

“I was in the neighborhood.  Thought I’d check out the new digs.”  He looks around.  He bets if he stretches his arms out, he’d be able to touch both sides of the walls.  “Please tell me this is just temporary while they renovate the corner office for you.”

She doesn’t answer, just looks down at the papers on the table and begins collecting them into a neat pile.  Watching her gather her things in this pathetic excuse for an office, he feels like his heart is being squeezed in a vice.  She doesn’t deserve this.

“What’re you working on?” he asks.

“Nothing,” she answers.  “Reviewing autopsy reports.”

“Can I take you to dinner?”

She checks her watch and glances past Mulder to the door.  He turns to see what she’s looking for, but there isn’t anything there.  She’s nervous, he realizes, but he doesn’t know what for.

“Or maybe I should go,” he says.  “I didn’t mean to...catch you off guard.”

“No, it’s okay,” she says, softly.  “It’s been a long week.  Do you mind if...we could order in.”

“Sure.”

He scans her bookshelves as he waits for her to pack up her satchel.  Nothing but textbooks on forensics and pathology, some of them with cracked, ancient binding.  She turns the light off and he follows her down the hall and up the stairs.  She pauses for a moment and waves a file folder in her hand.

“I just have to…” she says.

“Take your time.”

She nods and knocks on the first door to the left.  He hears a mumbled conversation and nonchalantly steps into the view of the open office.  Scully is in the antechamber of another office, passing the file folder to a woman who looks like she just sucked on a lemon.  Her disdain is more than obvious and Mulder wonders what it’s about.  For a fleeting second, the woman’s eyes meet Mulder’s and her expression turns from sour to suspicious.  He turns his head and keeps moving past the door to wait for Scully.  She comes out a few moments later with her eyes forward and doesn’t look at him, doesn’t wait for him as she heads to the exit.  He follows a few paces behind.

“You drove?” she asks.

“Got a free upgrade to a Toyota Corolla,” he answers, waggling his brows at her.  “Riding in style around the Beehive State.  What was the deal with the wicked witch of the west back there?”

“Things are different here.  People are...different.”  She turns her head and a slight breeze ruffles her hair.  He almost lifts his hand to brush it out of her eyes.  “I’m over there.”  She points to the left of the parking lot.  “You can follow me out.  It’s not far.”

“After you.”

He watches her walk away.  The tired slump of her shoulders and bowed head is depressing.  He doesn’t even have to see her face to see how sad and defeated she is.  He’s angry with himself for waiting so long to come to her.  He should’ve been on a plane immediately.  He should have never let her go.

The drive to her apartment is only about ten minutes.  The building is compact and lacks character, bland and beige and ugly.  Next door is an empty lot of dirt and shrubs and a clear view of the highway.  He hopes the interior makes up for the exterior.  His hopes are dashed as soon as he steps foot inside.  It’s even worse.

Her apartment is a studio with ancient appliances and worn carpet. Clearly, it came furnished with pea-green, threadbare chairs and a pull-out couch.  He doesn’t recognize a thing.  What little she does have is still in boxes, pushed up against the walls and stacked to make as much room as possible.  They’ve stayed in nicer motels throughout the years.  He hates everything about it, but especially that this is what she’s been calling home for the last six weeks.

“It’s temporary,” she says, watching him look around.  

“You don’t deserve this,” he replies.  

“I didn’t have much of a choice.”

“That’s where you’re wrong.”

“It’s over, Mulder.  You need to accept that and move on.”

“Move on?  Are you serious?”

“What do you want from me, Mulder?  The files are destroyed.  The OPR was quite clear that there’s no hope of ever reinstating the department.  I’ve been exiled to what’s arguably the least friendly, most backwards and misogynistic field office in the country, which I’m sure was intended to break my resolve somehow.”

“Then why are you still here?”

“If I quit now, they win.  I don’t see you walking away.”

The defiant tilt of her chin ends the debate.  He nods in agreement and shoves his hands into his pockets in frustration.  She’s right, as usual, and he hates that she’s right about this.  But, he didn’t come here to argue.  He takes his hands out of his pockets and swings them awkwardly for a moment.  He wants to touch her, but he doesn’t.

“I need you,” he says.

“You don’t need me,” she whispers as she sinks down and perches on the edge of one of the chairs.  “You never have.  I just held you back.”  For a few moments, she holds her face in one hand and rubs her temples.  When she looks up, her eyes are heavy and tired.  She blinks and then her eyes well up and she looks down at her lap, picking at the skin along her thumbnail.  

“You’re wrong, Scully.  You are so wrong.”

“Why did they assign me to you, Mulder?  To rein you in.  To shut you down.”

“And you saved me.  Your goddamn strict science and rationalism have saved me a thousand times over.  You kept me honest.  You made me a whole person.  And I’m not...”  He pauses and swallows hard against the tightening in his throat.  He’d built up his courage and come out here to tell her all the things he’d held back, but fear has a merciless stranglehold on him and steals his voice.

She looks up at him with her brows furrowed and he kneels down in front of her.  He puts his hands on her knees, palms up, and she automatically slips her hands into his as if they’ve done this a thousand times.  He bows his head over their hands for a few moments and then looks up and gazes openly into her eyes.

“I’m not just talking about the work,” he says.  “When I say I need you, I mean you are the other half of me.  You’re right, they’ve taken everything from us and I’ve spent these last weeks being furious and disgruntled and railing at the injustice of...we were so close, Scully.  We were on the verge.  But...but…”

She squeezes his hands and he bows his head again.

“It’s not the work I want back,” he says. “It’s you.”

She chokes on whatever reply she’s about to give and then lowers her head so her forehead rests against his.  He pulls his hands free of hers and wraps his arms around her, nearly pulling her from the chair and into him.  She hides her face against his shoulder and both hands slide over the back of his head and through his hair.

“What do we do?” she asks.  “I know you, Mulder, you’ll never give up.”

“I’m not giving up.  The only thing I know for sure is that I’m not leaving here without you.  Everything else...I don’t know.”

Her fingers tighten, pulling gently at his hair.  He leans his head against hers and they stay that way until finally she picks her head up and stares at him.  He brushes his thumbs along the crescents beneath her eyes, damp with tears.  Her lips part even before he leans in as though she anticipates his kiss.  He whispers her name as their mouths meet and her whimpered reply makes the six weeks away from her worth the lost time.

When they pull back, maybe minutes or hours later, there’s a mixture of shock and awe in Scully’s expression and Mulder can’t help the lopsided and goofy grin that pulls at his cheeks.  He can feel every muscle in his face lift in happiness and then Scully smiles as well.  She’s the first to look away, glancing to the side at the pull-out couch and then biting her lip when she returns to his gaze.

Like most things, they don’t discuss the next step.  Mulder gets up and takes Scully’s hands to help her from the chair.  They empty the couch of cushions, stacking them in a little space next to the arm that she’s designated as the holding area, and then they unfold the bed together.  They remove blazers and shoes and belts, but come to an unspoken agreement that that’s enough for now.  Cuffs and collars are loosened for comfort and then they lay down facing each other, nose to nose, Mulder’s arms around her and Scully’s arms folded between them with her hands on his chest.

They take turns pressing soft kisses to one another’s face; her cheek, his brow, the side of her nose, his chin, the back of her jaw, the corner of his mouth.  Things escalate slowly and gradually.  The lazy circles Mulder makes against Scully’s upper back move lower until his hand rests lightly at the hint of a curve below her hip.  Their legs shift and twine.  Scully moves one hand to Mulder’s side, fingers tugging unconsciously at his shirt.

The bed is surprisingly comfortable, not that Mulder would notice if it wasn’t.  It does squeak though with nearly every move they make and they can’t help laughing at the absurdity every so often.  He can’t believe the anger and heartache he’s been holding for the last six weeks has evaporated so quickly into joy.  He can’t believe he’s here and that they’re doing this.

And then things simmer and slow and then they’re back to where they started, nose to nose, albeit a little more entwined.  He could be afraid she’s changed her mind or that this isn’t what she wants, but he isn’t, not with the way her fingers play at his nape or the way she moves to trace his lips every so often with the pad of her thumb.  No skin has even been uncovered and yet he feels more exposed and naked than he ever has been, and he’s not afraid of that either.

“What do we do now?” she whispers.

“Got any good Chinese takeout around these parts?”

She smiles and brushes his nose with his.  He shifts and sighs and they both tighten their hold on each other, just a little.

“I don’t know,” he says.  “You should...be a doctor.  Go be a doctor while you still can.”

“Maybe one day I will be.  But, you haven’t found the truth yet and I have my own questions that need answers.  I have...my own injustices that need to be resolved.”

“You wanna go rogue?”

“I’ve been out here for the past six weeks thinking that I didn’t want to burn bridges.  I thought maybe if I kept my head down, stayed below radar, I’d earn the chance to come back.”

He nods.  “How’s that been working out?”

“Not very well.”

“I’m at the end of my rope, Scully.  Tell me you feel the same.”

She slides down and curls herself up against his chest.  He makes a shelter out of his arms and curves himself around her in return.

“We’ll figure it out,” he says.  “Just maybe not right now.”

“Thank you for coming after me.”

“I’ll always come after you.”

“I know.”

They fall asleep twined like a yin and yang; two halves, one whole.  He’s needed respite from his crusade for so long and tonight he has it.  Tomorrow, they’ll form a plan, but for now, they’ll lie together and just forget the world.

The End

[ombrellica]

Half the year is over! I spent my holidays this midyear at home where I worked on renovating my room and other things. It’s not as exciting as going somewhere new but the total cost of my new furniture and screen tablet adds up to about the same as a two week trip. I couldn’t get everything I wanted done but it has been a great break off work. 

First thing I got done was dismantling my old bed frame, which I’ve had since forever and setting up a new one that matched the other furniture in the room. Right now my theme is wood/brown white and black. 

I also got a new mattress. I wanted to film the rising of the mattress but it fwished up as soon as I cut a hole in the plastic. I bought new bed covers during a sale! I chose a bunch of brown and white covers cushions. I am really loving the poodles.

The next area I worked on was my closet. Its an area of my room that I seriously neglect and I had to mentally prepare myself to sort through it. I had bought some storage bags on discount and I was surprised by how much hold. I was able to store most of my clothes by folding them tight. I organised the bags order of the clothes I used the most, clothes I sometimes use and clothes I rarely use.

Also for fun here are some of my outfits:

During the week my new screen tablet arrived!

Unfortunately I can’t use it yet because my computer doesn’t have a HDMI port. I had plans to go into the city that Friday to get an adaptor when I got a new battery for my phone but the person serving didn’t understand or believe that my computer didn’t have a HDMI port and tried to sell me a HDMI cable asjkasjkasjk! But I did get that new battery. I am now waiting for my adaptor to come from amazon. 

The last thing I worked on for my room was a new shelf! The first time I assembled the shelf I got the feet on the wrong way around - a talent I possess! So I had to redo it. I used to have my collection of merch on my computer table but as time went on, my small collection got bigger. Here’s how they look now:

And that’s all for my renovations! I have since reorganised hundreds of files on my hard drive and computer into meaningful folders which took two afternoons to do and I finished reviewing a story that I will be turning into a comic script. I had hoped to start that script yesterday but I became so moody that I was non functioning. There’s been a lot of things on the side that have been building up that I can’t necessarily do anything about so I don’t bother processing them properly. But because I don’t sort my feelings about things individually it ends up becoming one large unhealthy problem. I am okay now since I sorted it out in a journal. 

I should be able to start being productive soon! I am looking forward to doing new and exciting things.

This Story Behind Remote Desktop Google Site Will Haunt You Forever! | remote desktop google site

Easy to set up and manage, this two-bay NAS appearance accouterments encryption, media streaming, alien access, advantageous apps, and solid abstracts protection.

Google Chrome Remote Desktop Now Available as a Web App .. | remote desktop google site

The Synology DiskStation DS218 is the best two-bay home NAS for best people. It about sells for beneath than $350 (diskless) as of this writing, its apprehend and abode speeds are the fastest of any NAS we tested, and it includes a avant-garde Intel Celeron processor, hardware-level encryption, and a adjustable and easy-to-understand interface with a advanced arrangement of third-party apps. The DS218 supports media playback through its own apps or Plex Media Server, supports RAID 1 drive mirroring, alerts you to drive failure, has three USB ports (including one on the front), and supports all the appearance Wirecutter readers accept asked about, such as the FTP protocol, VPN server capabilities, IP cameras, UPS compatibility, and SSDs.

The DS218 had the best achievement of the six NAS units we activated in 2017 and 2018, with unencrypted abode speeds amid 97 MB/s and 109 MB/s.

Most NAS accessories in this amount ambit use slower ARM-based processors from Realtek, Alpine, or Marvell, or older-generation Celeron processors. Some still abode with 1 GB of RAM or less. The DS218 has a avant-garde dual-core 2.0 GHz Intel Celeron processor and 2 GB of RAM, which you can aggrandize to 6 GB. Our runner-up, the QNAP TS-251B uses the aforementioned Celeron processor and 2 GB of RAM, but the DS218 ’s CPU is faster than the processor in about every added NAS currently accessible in this amount range, and you’ll apprehension that dispatch aberration aback artful lots of files or assuming assorted backups simultaneously. The Linux-based DiskStation Manager (DSM) software isn’t complicated; if you’ve acclimated a Windows or Mac computer, you’ll be able to acquisition your way about DSM and amount out how it works appealing quickly.

* indicates testing in 2018; added testing performed in 2017. College numbers announce bigger performance.

The DS218 had the best achievement of the six NAS units we activated in 2017 and 2018, with unencrypted abode speeds amid 97 MB/s and 109 MB/s. (You won’t see abundant college speeds from addition NAS unless you’re application 10 Gigabit Ethernet or articulation aggregation, because these speeds are appropriate at the absolute of Gigabit Ethernet aback you booty encoding into account.)

The QNAP TS-251B uses the aforementioned Celeron CPU, and its achievement was agnate to the DS218 during side-by-side tests, admitting the DS218 was aloof a bit faster than the TS-251B aback ambidextrous with lots of baby files. Both calmly exhausted the TS-231P2, the WD My Billow Home Duo, and the Apollo Billow 2 Duo in small-file abode speeds. The arena acreage was abundant added akin aback we activated application our binder absolute two ample files: The DS218 was in a asleep calefaction with the TS-251B in our large-file abode tests, and the differences amid best models we tested, abreast from the Apollo Billow 2, Duo were minimal.

Aside from the beefier processor in this model, the DS218 (as able-bodied as all added accepted Synology NAS devices) uses a altered absence book arrangement than others, alleged Btrfs (most added NAS models, including offerings from QNAP, use the ext4 book system). The book arrangement shouldn’t accept a huge aftereffect on the file-transfer speeds, but it does acquaint some appearance to Synology NAS units that added models don’t have, such as snapshots, which can assure folders from adventitious abatement by authoritative copies of aggregate folders periodically. Btrfs additionally appearance near-instant server-side copying, abstracts candor checks, and metadata mirroring, which allegedly helps with abstracts accretion in the case of hard-drive damage. Best NAS owners won’t apprehension the differences amid the two. If you do adopt ext4 for any reason, you can set up the DS218 to use that book arrangement instead of Btrfs aback you actualize a volume.

The DS218 doesn’t abutment aggregate encryption to deeply lock your absolute drive, clashing the QNAP TS-251B, but you can encrypt alone aggregate folders. Alike with the DS218 ’s accouterments encryption acceleration, you’ll still see a advise to read-and-write achievement with encryption angry on. In our tests, book alteration in encrypted folders was about 60 percent of the dispatch of alteration in non-encrypted folders. That accouterments encryption dispatch additionally didn’t admonition with SMB in-flight encryption at all, which slowed the file-transfer action to about 50 percent of the dispatch of unencrypted transfers. In-flight encryption protects your files during the alteration process, so it’s not article you charge to anguish about if you’re on your home arrangement the accomplished time.

The DS218 ’s interface, DiskStation Manager, is one of the best convenient operating systems on any NAS device. DSM has a toolbar on the top breadth you can admission the capital menu, notifications, and login options, chase for files, and analysis on arrangement health. Below that toolbar, you accept a desktop breadth you can admission Amalgamation Center (a abundance of sorts abounding with add-on software), the book browser, the ascendancy console (which includes all your settings), and a abutment breadth alms video tutorials, FAQs, and more. Synology has a audience adaptation of the operating arrangement accessible online; it’s account blockage out afore you accomplish your purchase.

Chrome Remote Desktop now available on the web – 10to10Google – remote desktop google site | remote desktop google site

Like best of the NAS operating systems we tested, the DSM interface includes a pop-out dashboard accoutrement that gives an overview of the NAS’s drive health, as able-bodied as its processor and anamnesis usage. You can adapt the dashboard to accommodate storage, affiliated users, and more. DSM additionally includes accessible appearance for novices. For example, if you bang on the Book Casework tab in the DSM ascendancy panel, it displays the key command you’ll charge to admission the book allotment on your PC (“DS218plus”) or Mac (“smb://DS218plus”). While these commands may be accustomed to adept systems administrators, new users or anyone who has abandoned the server name will acceptable the anchored tip.

DSM has an alternative billow account alleged Billow Station Server that allows you to admission your files remotely. If you don’t appetite to affix to any billow service, you can still admission your NAS accidentally through a basic clandestine arrangement (VPN) hosted on the NAS itself or Dynamic DNS with anchorage forwarding, but for best bodies Billow Station Server is abundant simpler. DSM additionally includes Billow Station ShareSync, which allows you to use your NAS to accompany files beyond devices, agnate to a account like Dropbox.

There’s additionally the confusingly called Billow Accompany package, which allows you to accompany or aback up specific folders or your absolute NAS to assorted billow platforms, such as Backblaze, Google Drive, Amazon, and Dropbox, which makes creating bombastic off-site backups actual easy. You can set those backups to appear on a agenda and optionally encrypt them afore you upload them to addition service.

DSM packs in abundant aegis measures. In the capital card you’ll acquisition a aegis adviser that alerts you to malware, abnormal arrangement configurations, age-old applications, anemic passwords, and any systemwide agreement issues, admitting you will accept to log in to the DSM interface consistently to see its advice. It supports HTTPS for alien access, TLS or SSL defended connections, and two-factor authentication.

For bigger or worse, instead of accepting one big app with bags of features, Synology takes a piecemeal admission to its adaptable apps. DS Audio, DS File, DS Photo, DS Cloud, and DS Video are for accessing media. DS Finder is for ecology the stats on your NAS, DS Get is for managing downloads, and DS Cam is for managing IP cameras. There’s additionally VPNPlus if you’re application the VPN server functions, DS Note if you use Synology’s addendum app, and MailPlus if you use your NAS as an email server. All of Synology’s apps are accessible for Android and iOS, and they’re on a par with those of Synology’s bigger competitor, QNAP. Both companies’ adaptable apps are best in chic amid NAS devices—no added NAS provider comes close.

Like best NAS boxes, the DS218 supports multimedia alive through Synology’s own apps, DLNA/UPnP, and iTunes. In our tests, the DS218 didn’t booty continued to browse a music and video library and accomplish the files accessible beyond a Wi-Fi arrangement on assorted computers, TVs, bold consoles, and phones.

The DS218 supports on-the-fly accouterments transcoding, allegedly all the way to 4K video. It does this application its own Video Station and DS Book apps. If you adopt to use Plex, you will not accept admission to the accouterments transcoding features, back Plex’s transcoding is CPU-bound and NAS accessories in this amount ambit aloof don’t accept the application to do that. With Synology’s apps, we were able to comedy several 1080p MKV files on assorted accessories over 802.11ac Wi-Fi after issue, but aback we approved the aforementioned with three altered 4K cine trailers, they were all unwatchable due to stuttering. We additionally had issues with any 4K video application the DTS audio codec, in which no complete would play. Some formats, such as M4V, wouldn’t comedy at all. Files that didn’t crave any transcoding, like MP4 files, played flawlessly on all devices. On-the-fly transcoding is abased on the book format, the assorted codecs, and the accessory you’re watching the transcoding book on, so your breadth will alter here.

Chrome remote desktop update error – Google Chrome Community – remote desktop google site | remote desktop google site

Still, alike admitting Synology advertises the DS218 as actuality able of all kinds of transcoding, you’ll appetite to use a added able computer than the DS218 (or any added NAS in this amount range) if you’re austere about on-the-fly media transcoding. We acclaim transcoding your video files advanced of time if you plan on application your NAS as a media server. You can do this with the Offline Transcoding affection in Video Station, admitting abominably you charge to manually accept alone videos to convert. If you’re attractive for an automatic option, QNAP’s software allows you to set up a specific binder that the NAS monitors; the NAS again transcodes any files you bead in.

Power-saving appearance won’t assignment if you accredit any media server functions, because the NAS needs to be accessible all the time.

In our tests, the DS218 ’s data-protection appearance formed as advertised. With the DS218 running, we pulled the drive out of the additional bay and the NAS beeped at us until we accustomed a drive-failure notification. We additionally accustomed an email notification at the abode we’d set up previously. Logging in to DSM, we begin addition notification as able-bodied as instructions for how to clean the drive arrangement in the Accumulator Manager already we replaced it.

The advanced of the DS218 appearance a disposable bowl that hides abroad the drive bays, as able-bodied as LED indicators for accepted status, arrangement connectivity, and the cachet of anniversary drive. You can acclimatize the LED accuracy or set it up on a agenda so the lights dim at night. The DS218 has three USB 3.0 ports. It additionally has an eSATA anchorage so you can aggrandize the NAS with alien drives application one of Synology’s accordant amplification units. Like every NAS we advised for this guide, the DS218 has two drive bays. Clashing added options, the drive accolade are tool-less, so you don’t charge a screwdriver to install a drive.

A USB Archetype button sits on the advanced of the DS218 , but afore you can use it you charge to acquaint the NAS what the button should do aback you columnist it. For example, you can set it up so that aback you affix a deride drive you’ve stored photos on, acute the button will archetype the absolute capacity of that drive over to a specific folder. Or you can set it to export, say, alone video files from a specific folder. It takes a little accomplishment to get the button alive how you want, but Synology’s adviser should admonition you configure the feature. While QNAP models generally accept a advanced USB port, best added NAS boxes do not, so it’s nice to see on this Synology unit.

When it came to ability consumption, the DS218 captivated amid 19 and 23 watts during book copy, hardly bigger than the QNAP TS-251A and TS-231P2. This Synology NAS acclimated about 6 watts while in power-saving mode, compared with the QNAP models’ 10 watts. Power-saving appearance won’t assignment if you accredit any media server functions, because the NAS needs to be accessible all the time; you accept to attenuate media servers and a scattering of added agnate services, such as billow admission and the mail server, if you appetite the power-saving approach to work. You can additionally about-face the DS218 on and off according to a schedule, and it supports Wake-on-LAN and assorted fan-speed modes, the closing of which can admonition abate the all-embracing babble of the DS218 . No NAS is absolutely quiet, but to our aerial the DS218 was beneath apparent than the QNAP TS-251A or TS-231P2.

You can add wireless capabilities to the DS218 with a Wi-Fi dongle. This assemblage additionally supports added than 5,000 altered IP cameras and has appropriate agreement settings for uninterruptible ability supplies. The DS218 comes with a two-year warranty, and Synology offers assorted abutment options, including tutorials, email support, and browser-based argument chat.

Upgrading my laptop hard drive for an SSD

My main computer is a Dell Studio 17 notebook from 2010 (specification attached). In my home office, I hook it up to another keyboard, monitor and mouse.

As a part-time faculty lecturer, I operate the usual applications -- Microsoft Office, Adobe Illustrator etc -- and some expert software such as ArcMap, a portion of the ArcGIS package.

I don't have any issues with anything, but I am worried about strength and part failure. Should I be considering replacing the hard disk now? If this is the case, would it be safer to pay additional to go down the SSD path? But if other parts are likely to fail, would I be better off replacing the whole thing now?

Either path will obviously entail transferring a large amount of data crucial to my research and teaching. I really do have back-ups: I'm more concerned with ease of transport so that apps retain their paths and settings to data if at all possible. This is particularly important in ArcMap, where a map document may contain heaps of links to information spread over many different folders. Rebuilding these links would be very time consuming.

Just in case this makes it into your column, can I say for the record that I don't have any interest in Macs or Linux. Neal

The Dell Studio 17 has been a good desktop replacement notebook with loads of power but much portability.

Obviously, hard drives do become increasingly likely to fail after five to 10 decades, but many fail within three decades without doubt some last over a decade: there is no easy way to tell. Motherboard batteries also often fail after five years. For instance, hinges especially in the event that you lift a laptop by its display, and power cables fray.

The pros and cons of SSDs

It's often worth replacing a spinning-platter HD (hard disk) using a chip-based SSD (solid-state drive). SSDs make your PC start up quicker, and apps feel a whole lot more responsive. Programs can load data straight from an SSD without needing to await a hard disk to spin up to speed, or even to get the read/write head to find the right sector on the platter.

SSDs have no moving parts, therefore they are impervious to the shocks which could damage hard drives when laptops have been bumped round or even lost.

But, SSDs are still a lot more expensive than HDs to exactly the exact same amount of storage. SSDs will also be prone to neglect, though I feel that, today, they are less likely to fail than HDs.

Installing an SSD

In principle, SSDs are easy to install, as follows. (1) Connect the SSD to your notebook via an eSATA or USB cable or an external caddy. (2) "Clone" the current HD to the SSD, then unplug it from the laptop. (3) Close down the notebook, and remove the battery. (5) Restart the laptop.

Before doing some of that, check your notebook's BIOS can encourage an SSD through AHCI, and find out whether the hard drive is SATA I, II or III. Later variants of SATA are quicker but backwards compatible. By way of example, a SATA II notebook should work with a 6Gbps SATA III drive, but it is going to only run in the rate of a less costly 3Gbps SATA II drive.

There is loads of disk cloning applications around. (Crucial's kitincludes a specific USB cable.) But many backup programs will do the task, including Acronis True Image, EaseUS To perform and CloneZilla. The thing to keep in mind is that you must make a disk-to-disk clone, not merely replicate the Windows partition. It's also a good idea to make a Windows start-up/repair DVD if anything goes wrong.

The process should be somewhat easier for you because the Dell Studio 17 includes two drive bays, and one ought to be free. If that's the case, you can install the SSD prior to cloning the hard disk.

Is it worthwhile?

Since you're using your notebook mostly as a desktop computer, you will not receive all the benefits of an SSD, for example extra battery life. On the other hand, the main problem is the cost.

For cloning to operate, the SSD must be bigger than the HD. Your Studio 17 includes a 500GB drive with 50GB free, and so you will need a 500GB or larger SSD.

There ought to be lots of choices, but #120 is much to spend on an old laptop.

One solution would be to remove more than half your data so that you can clone the HD to a 120GB or 240GB SSD -- you can get these from around #35 to50. If you have 250GB of films, this could be easy. If your HD is filled with ArcMap files, it's probably not an attractive option.

Purchase a New PC?

Your Dell Studio 17 has a 2.40GHz Intel Core i5-520M chip, which can be from the very first generation of Core chips. It had been quickly in its own day, but now it is lower mid-range. I guess it'd rank around 290-300 at Notebookcheck's Comparison of Mobile Processors. Newer Core-i5 as well as Core-i3 chips should be noticeably faster.

Therefore, for instance, you might get an HP Envy 17 with a 17.3in display, Core i5-6500U processor, 12GB of memory, 1TB hard drive and Windows 10 for #899.95. Also, the Nvidia GeForce 940M would be a huge upgrade on your current ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5000 graphics card.

There are cheaper versions of this Envy 17 around, based on specification and source. For instance, you may get one with 8GB of memory to get #699.97. Additionally, the old model with a Core i5-5200U and Windows 8.1 is cheaper in749.99. Shop around.

Frankly, I'd stick with what you've got. You are able to keep running your Dell Studio 17 until it is too slow to do everything you want or the display or motherboard fails. If the hard drive fails, you can replace it with a comparable HD for #35 to40, or an SSD. They will most likely be even more affordable by then.
