- [Fixing WiFi roaming in macOS](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2018/06/25/fixing-wifi-roaming-in-macos/) - I recently extended my WiFi network coverage with a TP-Link EAP225 v3 access point in the garage, connected via an ethernet cable to the router in my office. The garage and my office are at opposite corners of the house, so this combination should provide excellent coverage overall. This blog post is reminder to myself
- [Revolution in low-power NAS](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2010/07/02/revolution-in-low-power-nas/) - Even though I'm a Mac user at home, I hadn't been paying attention to a revolutionary step forward in lowering power consumption. I'm speaking of the "Wake on Demand" feature in Snow Leopard and Airport routers. This is a combination of router + OS trickery that has great potential for allowing machines to go to
- [Decisions, decisions...](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2008/06/19/decisions-decisions/) - So in my idle moments, I wonder whether it is time to upgrade my stable but not quite satisfying OpenSolaris NAS box from its current Nevada Build 76. For some reason, I just downloaded SXCE Build 91 even though I had only ever contemplated moving over to OpenSolaris 2008.05. The only real benefit of SXCE
- [Great NAS with ZFS resource](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2008/04/06/great-nas-with-zfs-resource/) - I just ran across Simon's blog, which recently covered many of the ZFS topics for a home NAS that I had been interested in. Definitely check it out: http://breden.org.uk/
- [Indiana Preview 2: Installing to a 4GB CF card](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2008/02/18/indiana-preview-2-installing-to-a-4gb-cf-card/) - Tim Foster of Sun Ireland wrote up this concise summary of installing the latest OpenSolaris Indiana Preview 2 on a CompactFlash card: Hi Brian, On Mon, 2008-02-18 at 13:44 +0000, Brian Nitz wrote: > I wonder if you can post or blog the steps you took to accomplish this > and what exactly you accomplished
- [Trouble with Samba](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2007/12/02/trouble-with-samba/) - My first server was based on Nevada 56, which didn't include Samba. I ended up compiling v3.0.22 it by hand, setting up a SMF configuration to boot it up, and I was relatively satisfied. I am by no means a smb.conf expert, but it worked well enough for my simple needs. The problem was that
- [Hardware History](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2007/12/02/hardware-history/) - This is a brief history of my hardware selection for my OpenSolaris NAS server. The case, power-supply and choice of disks have remained constant, but I have gone through 3 motherboards in total since April 2006, and I will list my regrets for each. The first motherboard I tried to use was the MSI 915
- [Goals for my NAS Project](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2007/10/26/goals-for-my-nas-project/) - My basic objective was to create a NAS appliance on par with a Buffalo Terastation, meaning the following goals: low power (my Terastation runs at 40 watts on average) low noise (my Terastation's fan is actually quite noisy) RAID-5 storage UPS support (my Terastation doesn't support USB. It only supports archaic RS-232 communication with the
- [First post](https://www.mark-hastings.com/2007/10/26/first-post/) - I've just set up this blog to record my technical notes as I experiment with OpenSolaris, ZFS, and quiet, low-power home file servers.
