I sometimes use MiniTool Partition Wizard for windows, every now and again i find diskpart can't do anything due to some sort of lock thingy. But Minitool seems to do the job

Never heard of it 
might be part of the problem lol
Feel like i'm doing about 100 jobs all at once.
Just ordered a Ksger T12 soldering station. thought sod it need a smaller iron to do SMD work and my current one the smallest tip it takes is the size of a SMD component.
Should be with me in 2 - 3 weeks.
Had a weird one yesterday. Main fibre went down at one of our sites. But the backup router (On ADSL) didn't kick in. So went to site.
Found the router was plugged in but the port on the HP switch was not showing lights. Checked the config gui and saw the port disabled. But wouldn't let me re-enable. So changed the port and the lights flashed and then off, again checked the gui and that port is now disabled??
So as a test plugged my laptop and router into a separate switch and i could ping the router fine. plugged a patch between this switch and the main one and boom no connection to the main switch??

@scottalanmiller said in Firewall for small Windows network:
We do too, but for customers who want US to do that for them, we charge. But of course, they are free to do it themselves as well.
It's just that we host the controller for free.
But just above you stated that your customers get Unifi for free?
We do not charge for the use of the Unifi platform since it is a pre-existing cost that is already covered and their portion of it would be less than the cost of the overhead to charge them.

This, learning fault diagnostics on consoles
Diagnosing the faulty Nintendo switch i bought.
So back to the question 
Do you need a windows domain if the business needs to set access rights to files/folders?
With CAD files being large then on prem storage is going to be high up on the solution list, can it be managed without a domain easily? I've only never used Windows Domains so be interesting to see other solutions.

@CCWTech said in How can we recover data from Hard Drives were on RAID 10 without controller?:
You don't need a RAID card, in fact don't use one. There is a chance it will overwrite your data. Clone the drives, ONLY work on clones, never on patient drives.
UFS Explorer Professional
ReclaimMe Pro
What would you recommend for the cloning side of things?
