Hi, I have the Gigabyte Z77 UD5h mobo and was wondering if anyone is aware on activating and using both LAN ports in a "load-balancing" way. I do a lot of video editing and regularly back up my work to my QNAP TS420 which does have Dual LAN ports and does use the load-balancing feature. Some...

Hi all, I suffered a completely loss of my media array over the weekend! :thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown: I'm now committed to building a proper server type machine dedicated to house at least 10-20TB of backups for my whole house (3 hacks; 2 iMacs and a MBP) but also to serve as an iTunes...

I just wanted to share my new Hack build I dubbed the Leviathan after the ancient water god. Case is absolutely huge!!! I had a Corsair 650D before - this is at least 40-50% larger!! When this case was announced, I knew I wanted it right away. I paid for it in full in Feb. 2013 - I received...

Help: User files on Raid 0 Array Hi guys and gals, I'm playing with the idea of setting up a RAID0 for my data files. I'm already running my boot on an SSD. 2 x 2TB Seagate drives is what I'm using for my OS X software RAID data array. I have successfully used Lnx2mac's tutorial several...

I have been successful in following lnx2mac guide with success but is there a way to have the same process done for different users on the same system? So I have 2 users in the system and I want to have separate hard drives for each user with their respective home folders on their dedicated...

Hi, As title states, I have sold my imac and built a fully functional hack which i'm very happy with. I didn't have the foresight to make a clone of the HDD before I sold it. I only have 2 different time machine copies of how it was just before I sold it. My new config is 120 GB sad for OSX...

So this topic has been very fascinating to me. Having Windows 8 do a seamless job of one giant wallpaper, I wanted the same in OS X. I looked around and didn't find anything. I have found some wallpapers that I added to my collection of backgrounds I liked. But when I thought of doing the...

I bought this laptop used. everything has been great but like my Hack, I need to know what's going on. Call me OCD but I installed iStat Menu and the Left Heat Pipe is coming in at 128 degrees Celcius. I have attached a screen shot. When I bought the laptop I immediately took it apart and...

Hi. I just found a smoking deal on a 256GB mSATA by Crucial - It is catagorized as a SATA 3 capable of 6GB / sec. but the mSATA port on my board limits it to SATA 2 3GB / sec. How come? Is there a MB out there that will do mSATA at Sata 3? thanks in advance.

Hi. So I have the 660 ti and it works wonderfully without any hitches except for a weird checkerboard pattern emerging when I'm running the heaven benchmark and playing Starcraft 2. Weird thing is it only comes up during those programs. I. Have a few other games I play in OSX namely COD and...

Hi everyone! I have spent a lot of time looking around to get an answer to my question above. I have a Windows 7 ISO and I don't have a DVD/CD drive on my machine. I have OS X working perfectly off its own SSD. I have a separate 320GB HDD for Win 7. Problem is I have tried everything I...

Hi, I'm new to the Hackintosh community but not to Apple products. I have only ever owned MacBook Pro's in the past but this is my first ability to have several multiple drives through my wonderful new Hackintosh (AKA Hackzilla...LOL). I'm doing what seems to be common place around here which...
