When I first got my Synologies set up (~2024), I got 4x 12TB refurb DC drives for $75 each from goharddrive on eBay. Today, those same drives are $220 each. Absolutely ridiculous.

So now instead of expanding my space, I just cut back on my usage to make more room, bc it’ll be a long time before I can afford an upgrade.

Just enable it in the BIOS, then make sure the network card has it enabled in Device Manager, and it works like magic (packets).

I’ve been doing it since before the Steam Deck came out, and I just enabled WoL, so the computer sleeps until I open Moonlight and try to access it, then it wakes up. Same with local LLM processing.

Or JetKVM 🤗

I don’t know how he comes up with his ideas, but they are all pretty phenomenal and novel. Great channel to subscribe to for some creative fuel every once in a while!

If you don’t want to worry about latency/etc - you should consider doing it with lasers 😈.
