Added another router- Asus RT-AC68U

Today i upgraded my main router to the Asus RT-AC68U and use my Linksys AC1900 to be an extender. The performance is impressive on the Asus but i still plan to use another firmware for this model.

Well the reason i am upgrading is because i am now on VQ 1Gpbs plan and i am in the process of turning all the switches in the house to smart switches using App enabled controls to activate devices and program routine. All from the iPhone or android

And on a side note, i managed to solve the issue i have in getting my new monitor to display 2560 X1440 (1440p). come on 1080P are for third world donkeys these days. i search for this adapter for days and no one in SIM LIM and i mean no one is high tech enough to warrant a consumer demand for this product. what a shame! 

$350 for the Asus Router
$220 for the 1440p Adapter

Here are the pics

Synology DS414 + 4x WesternDigital RED 4 TB HDD $1.7k

So my new gadget for the month is a brand new NAS. Yes yes yes! i have finally chuck that old Buffalo NAS i bought 3 years ago and gone with the state of the art Synology brand. And yes the main use of it is to store my humongous collection of Japanese porn. Lets face it, all men love porn! bent men like gay porn, straight like straight porn.

the DS414 comes with 1MB Ram and an Intel Armada processor, technically it is like a stand alone PC with processing power so it can continue it's multitude of function when you turn your PC off. NAS can host stuff like your website, your e commerce site, your directory server, mail server, open ERP, DDNS and the list just goes on. But hey! mine is only there to host porn and nothing else! maybe some movie too but heck!

My set up is 4 bay on 4 Western Digital 4TB RED HDD which means i am on 16 TB of storage. However after running RAID, i am probably down with 10-12TB. So whats RAID? For the uninitiated, RAID is a type of file system used to control multiple HDD which have failure recovery option. This means if 1-2 of your 4 HDD fail, you can simply replace the HDD and the RAID system will rebuild your data! No more sacrificing your porn! or backing up your external HDD! 

Having NAS on Raid is simply the gold standard for a porn library. the next step would be to upgrade your NAS using full SSD. the budget for that would be around $5.6k base on current prices. My current set up with HDD is a mere $1.7k, but of course SSD never breaks down because it has no moving parts and the speed is 30 times faster than your 7200RPM HDD assuming your SSD is a samsung PRO series

Behold the PORN infrastructure!

My New Samsung SSD 840 PRO x 2

I decided to expand my use of SSD after i have good experience with it on my PS4. Now all computers in my household run SSD and i never look back. i look forward to the days where NAS will be running SSD rather than high end system running 10,000 RPM.

Price are dropping rather quickly these days. got these 2 high end models for 748 each. 1 year back, they are doing 1100 each

The Bellroy travel wallet

I made a total of 4 trips lasting 22 days so far this year. Some were for business, some for golf and some for GF...ahemm...  Being a seasoned traveller, every of my equipment serves a practical purpose and i am always on the lookout to upgrade my stuff. 

The amount of retard travellers you see at airport is astounding! from the caveman and cavewoman who dress like they are in Antarctica when visiting a country with 16 deg temp and the donkeys who tried to fit everything they have into gigantic luggage for a 3 day trip and not forgetting the punanis who bring bottled water to the gates and hold everyone up. Even travelling business class cant save you from these retards.

so to cut the story short, amateur travellers are just like errand taxi drivers, you hate them so much but you can get rid of them. they are here to stay like cockroaches, not even nuclear disaster can wipe them out. sorry for the rant but the purpose of this post is to introduce to all a useful wallet for travelling. Integration is the key. let the pictures do the talking
