1 TopicReadyNAS Ultra 6
funny story for another time, needless to say, I now own a Ultra 6 populated with (6) 2TB WD NAS Reds. Couple of questions for those of you who are more experienced than I. 1) I see a 1gb 6200 CL6 DIMM on the Atom motherboard. Is this for the OS use or do read/write buffer from here? Also, would adding a 2nd 1gb DIMM improve the preformance enough to make it worth bothering ? 2) I see that there is and also mentioned a "2nd fan header" next the one being used by what is the case fan. There appears to be a 3rd fan header over closer to the CPU. Can anyone confirm that this is a operational fan header ? 3) Have any of you had thermal warnings from the CPU (yellow temp range) when ambient room temps are ~74`f This is passively cooled so I added a small laptop fan to the lower side of the CPU heatsink to assist in cooling. Also replaced the almost non-existant thermal compound. Also just because I can and had them, I threw a memory chip style heat sink on the intel controller chip. So once I put it back together I'll see if any of this made a difference on temps. 55-60`c while watching last night.4.1KViews0likes4Comments
