just bit the bullet and throw in a order for a barebone minisforum N5 pro NAS. Going to move the rest of my 3.5 disks to the NAS. Spouse will "kill" me if she knows 😘🤪. Order will be deliver in late August ..

Curious how many might be going after certs this year, either on-premises tech or cloud certs?

Everyone, I have been working on practice tests for the VCP-VCF exam for those interested in getting certified which is now a requirement for VMUG licensing. These take quite a bit of time to put together, so selling these for $20 to help support the Skool environment and other content creation activities. I currently have 3 practice exams of 70 questions each and will be adding new practice exams over the next couple of weeks. You can check these out in the classroom section 👍

Hey everyone, just wanted to throw out a quick poll on what everyone is using to run their labs. Curious with the VMware by Broadcom shakeup, how many are exploring other hypervisors or technologies.

The MINISFORUM N5 Pro will house up to five hard drives and three SSDs. It’s also one of the first NAS systems I’m aware of to feature an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 370 12-core, 24-thread Strix Point processor and also a 50 TOPS NPU, 16-core graphics, and support for up to 96GB of DDR5-5600 ECC memory. Ports include: - 1 x 10 Gigabit LAN - 1 x 5 Gigabit LAN - 1 x OCuLink (64 Gbps external PCIe connector) - 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps w/DisplayPort Alt Mode) - 3 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type- A (10 Gbps) - 1 x USB 2.0 Type-A (480 Mbps) - 1 x HDMI 2.1 - 1 x 3.5mm audio - 1 x DC power input (19V/12.63A)
