    Working 10GbE SFP+ NIC

    I’ve got my spf+ 10Gbe card installed and recognized. It seems to be working. I’m having a hard time getting the Qnap to connect though. I can see the card connected in both the QNap and my computer but when I try to connect with the Qnap app it tells me my subnet mask is not correct. The odd...

    Working 10GbE SFP+ NIC

    Any idea if this card would work on my configuration. I have a QNAP with SPF+ for 10 Gbe and I have a lot of trouble with my current SanLink3 thunderbolt to 10Gbe adapter. It works occasionally and I can't figure out what the issue is. I'm at my break point now so I'm willing to try this...

    Audio confusion - Shows up in Hardware but not in System Preferences

    I have read all of these audio guides. My issue is I get taken Back and forth in the guides and can’t follow what to do properly. For example the guide says uninstall anything you have installed as far as audio is concerned, but it’s assuming I know how to do that. I kinda do but not really...

    Audio confusion - Shows up in Hardware but not in System Preferences

    I am having an odd problem with my audio. After a bit of reworking to get my system back up and running due to a hard drive issue, I finally got things booted again by replacing my EFI folder with a backup. I now notice that only my Black magic HMDI video card works for audio. Notice my...

    [Solved] Clover reset due to missing EFI info

    So I solved this on my own. But I don't understand why it happened. I simply added the EFI info from my backup and everything boots fine now. I don't know why those drives are showing up that way but it's working. If anyone has anything to share about why this would happen please do. Thanks.

    [Solved] Clover reset due to missing EFI info

    So I've been unable to boot from my backup or my system drive. I'm not sure what happened but rather than explain how I may have broken I'm going to see if anyone can help fix this. When I look at my drives on an older iMac, a real one, I noticed some off things about my drives. Notice that...

    [Solved] SSD showing as Generic Storage Device 0576 and won´t boot

    I think I have the latest. I just did that a few weeks ago. Unless they updated since then I think I’m on the latest version. I did that to get my thUnderbolt 3 pci card working. Which it did. Just a few days ago everything was fine and then I switched some cables to try to get my hard...

    [Solved] Hard drives are not recognized

    I have been having hard drive recognition problems lately so I decided to try to solve the issue only to apparently make it worse. I did make a backup of my system drive prior to my exploring what the issue is. I was not able to see one of my internal drives for a while. It would show up...

    GC-ALPINE RIDGE in hands

    I've been fighting with the devices a bit. I find it takes me a few restarts to get things to show up. That was the case prior as well. So it's not really unusual. I find it odd that my Black magic card can hot swap though. It seems to work fine no matter what. I have the SANLink3 T1...

    Thunderbolt 3 to 10Gbe

    I'm curious if anyone is using any TB3 to 10Gbe devices on a setup similar to mine? I now have 3 TH3 ports so instead of trying to find a 10Gbe PCI card I was thinking of using an adapter. I found the Promise Technology SANLink3 T1 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge Adapter and thought it may be a good fit...
