    Part 2 will focus entirely on the software side of things! Support GN via the store: store.gamersnexus.net/
    Wendell uploaded a video from our office as well! th-cam.com/video/OWgf-_FjNnM/w-d-xo.html (go subscribe to them if you're not already)

    It's great seeing Wendall on your show Steve. I built a dual xeon server with an ASRock RACK motherboard and used to watch Wendall's videos on setting up a NAS server, configuring users and groups, setting up iSCSI, NFS, and SMB shares. What an experience. I was fascinated with the 14 onboard SATA ports (several of which were SATAII and not SATAIII). Now using SAS drives on both an internal LSI controller for my two 8 drive vdevs in my Pool, and an external LSI controller with an Expander for my 24 bay JBOD. Look at how fast things are changing... Love the show.

      I'm honestly starting to get really sick of them randomly shilling LTTstore in the middle of videos for no other reason than to shill LTTstore. They should do what GN does: "buy" ad spots from themselves and keep the ad in the ad portion of the video. It's also okay to do it mid video when, for example, GN does a video card teardown and mentions you can buy the mat he's working on. Those are at least relevant. Linus interrupting random videos to tell me to buy a hoodie is straight up bullshit.

We had 53 user terminals and had to run a purex on it at the end of each week along with a couple dump and debugs during said weeks.

    What I love about Wendell is that he takes approachable solutions to consideration. Linus is all about "let's throw money at it!". Sometimes you don't have all the money but need to kind of work with what you have and make best of it. Wendell is a hacker and that is what tech people truly need. Linus tickles the side of tech enthusiasts more. And yes, there is a difference. Tech people get stuff because they need it, tech enthusiasts get stuff because its shiny. Not saying shiny is bad but it does reach very different goal.

    This gave me some cool ideas for my home server. I've been considering an upgrade from my old Phenom II for some time now, but I like this board because it has the option to automatically power back on after a power failure. Since my Nextcloud and several services we use a lot run on it, it has been nice on the rare occasion that the power has gone off long enough for the UPS to die, that when power was restored and the UPS came back on, the server just turned itself back on automatically.

    As someone who has an ITX addiction that I can neither explain or defend it was nice to see a real world ITX build. They aren't just like a full or mid tower build just smaller. Plan on taking a lot of time, even days as you saw parts just don't fit even with the best laid plans.
    One note Steve, while I love the very high level of knowledge that you bring to the table. I've been in computers since the C64 and can't keep up with all the acronyms and initializations that fly out in your videos. Maybe you could invent something automated to drop a cheat sheet into the video description based on those used in the video? Love the channel.
