I was transferring some files to my NAS and inadvertently closed the window which showed the file transfer progress. After searching for a while, I found that I could restore this window by selecting Window > Show Progress Window. This option is grayed out unless you’re actually doing a file…
Coming from a Drobo 8D Thunderbolt 3 direct-attached storage (DAS), I wanted to preserve the benefits of transfer speed when moving to my Synology DS1821+ network-attached storage (NAS). My iMac Pro’s 10-gigabit ethernet (10GbE) port connects directly to the 10GbE Synology card (pictured above) with a CAT8 cable I pulled…

I use AIDA64 Extreme to display system information on my gaming workstation. Specifically, AIDA64’s sensor panel allows significant customization. Using a theme created by AIDA64 user ThatManOnTheMoon, I modified the sensor panel to fit my 1080 x 1920, vertically-oriented LCD panel on the front of my Lian Li O11 Dynamic…
