I don't remember. I have to boot up the system. It's been running Monterey just fine. I was hoping I could boot the Ventura installer and just wipe out the osx installation w/o touching the EFI partition.

ah, I see. so, no way of doing fresh install w/o starting from scratch?

is there a way to do a "FRESH" install of Ventura w/o nuking the EFI?

so quick question, the Kraken x53 and the z490 itx phantom gaming mobo fits?

yes, I have that option enable. it doesn't do anything it seems

Question for everyone: I have iMessage, facetime, airdrop working, but I have one issue When a message is deleted on my real Macs and iPhone, it does not get deleted on my Hack. Otherwise everything else works. Anyone know of a fix? running Monterey Thanks

[update] so under Monterey, using the ”FakePCIID.kext" and "FakePCIID_Intel_HDMI_Audio.kext" results in system instability. so, I have reverted to plugging in both HDMI ports to enable sound over HDMI there must be a work around for this.

flicka, seriously!!! thank you so much. I was able to get hdmi audio to work with your changes

I did the same thing with a fractal 304 case. I don't need so many drives, now that 8 and 10tb drives are out. The 304 is slightly wider and taller than a DS1513+ that it replaced. I only wished it had hot-swap HD trays. The 804 is a lot bigger than the 304. I went mini-ATX (itx) for my build...

There's an English section on the xpenology website I went aircooled. Again, I really don't think it's necessary for a high heat high power CPU. It's on 24/7 therefore low power is better

I built an xpenology box also. I used the fractal 304 case which is a good size. Just a little bigger than a synology ds15xx box. I did end up using a 7700k cpu, but that seems like overkill. Watt meter shows about 45w during idle.

That's great advice by the way. I just built mine myself from a motherboard and CPU bundle from microcenter. Easy peasy.

^ I used a script specifically designed for the dell 9350 laptop. but, it seems that bluetooth will require rehabman's fakePCIID kexts.

Yes, handoff works, but I'm having speed issues with windows and not connecting at 5ghz in windows

what's everyone's idle cpu processor speed? I downloaded the intel power gadget app and have it running in the background. It seems my CPU speed does not drop below 1GHz. @syscl I see some of your screenshots and you have the CPU speed dropping to below 500MHz
