How to configure multiple VLANs on QNAP TS-869U

It's unbelievable that QNAP still doesn't support multiple VLANs on a single bond0 interface via GUI when they now just released the QTS v4.1.0 NAS Operation System for QNAP. The underlying Linux OS (QTS) does support it, and there should at least not be any problems with Intel chipsets. Some are reporting problems with Marvell.. but I haven't tried. I wanted to use the QNAP as a iSCSI storage for my LAB using a second interface while having full redundancy and get max bandwith (2x1GbE) for my ESXi hosts, and I didn't want that interface routed. At the same time I of course need the possibility to manage the QNAP system via the main interface, which is routed. This CLI "hack" will at configure the QNAP for a second VLAN interface that will be persistent during reboots. It's not been verified that it works after an upgrade of the firmware, but I presumed it will. To get this to work I presume you already have the following working: Network onfigured...

Intel Rapid Storage Technology (iRST) driver for Windows 10 on older chipsets (7-series and older)

My computer is still more than fast enough even though it's over 4 years old. It's a Intel Core i7-3770K with 32GB DDR4-1600 RAM on an Asus ROG Maximus V Gene mainboard. The chipset is Z77 and so it was more or less the best to get at the time being. I started with two Samsung SSD 830 in RAID-9 and later upgraded to a OCZ RevoDrive3 X2 PCIe SSD for my OS disk. Fast forward from Windows 7/8 to Windows 10 (v1607) and Intel seems to not have released any Windows 10 supported SATA controller drivers for Z77. Or have they? It seems that as long as your BIOS has the Intel SATA controller set to AHCI-mode, Windows 10 will install and use the generic ' Standard SATA controller ' and trying to install the latest iRST driver v15.2.0.1020 (latest version as of 2016-12-15) on an AHCI configured Z77-system only gives you an error: Platform not supported The good news is that Intel does have driver support for some of the older chipsets; those that have RAID capabilities, whi...

Typing @-character is delayed with Asus GPU TweakII and scandinavian keyboard layout (at least norwegian)

After I reinstalled my computer a while back, I noticed that one characters (the @-sign) had a long delay before showing up after I had hit the key on the keyboard. And I noticed it wasn't every time I had turned on my computer it was "slow". Imagine how frustrating it is to write your email address in a normal pace on the keyboard, just to find it spelled firstname1977gma@il.com instead of firstname1977@gmail.com ? Hitting ' @ 'had 0.5 to 1 second delay before it showed up on my screen, while the characters after displayed instantly. The computer in question runs english Windows 10 x64 with an NVidia GTX1070 card from Asus, and using a norwegian/scandinavian keyboard (Logitech G710+, but model isn't the problem). Throubleshooting led me to narrow the problem down to my ASUS GPU TweakII v1.4.0.8 (older version probably have the same problems). When I started the program, which was set to auto-start, I was suddenly no able to type @ as fast and often as ...
