Build a Custom Suitcase Boom Box! DIY Tryin 2014-02-17 | Speakers + Vintage Suitcase = Awesome Sound? Jesse wrote in, "I have been looking into building a stereo suitcase. I want to make it myself instead of buying similar online custom models." We love this project... find out how to build your own suitcase boom box in the video! It's fast, fun, surprisingly cheap if you upcycle speakers, looks great. Your friends will be amazed! (And then they'll start dancing.)A more nuanced explanation of the Ohm rating is coming next week. But to add to what was stated in the episode- most car speakers are rated at 4 Ohms. If you properly match your speakers and amp, 4 or 8 Ohm speakers will work... 4 ohm speakers are just harder to drive, so make sure you have enough amp if you pick 'em.

FreeNAS Developers Help Us Build A Better FreeNAS Box! DIY Tryin 2014-03-10 | FreeNAS is the most popular storage OS in the world, and makes it easy for anyone to build secure, robust network attached storage (NAS) to store files and share files. We love our FreeNAS server! So when the caretakers of FreeNAS over at iXsystems called to ask if we'd like to do another -ultimate- FreeNAS build with a couple of their experts, we said YES! Where did FreeNAS come from? Should you use server parts like EEC RAM, or can you use junk parts from the bottom o' the closet? Are FreeNAS and the ZFS file system CPU bound? How much RAM do you need? What's a jail? How do you set up -all- the plugins? We've got answers from the experts! Jordan Hubbard is the project lead for FreeNAS and the CTO at iXsystems, a co-founder of FreeBSD, and a key engineer at Apple from 2000 - 2013. James Nixon keeps the web servers at iXsystems running, and has a passion for FreeNAS plugins. You'll learn tons about FreeNAS, open source, and setting up your backup hardware the right way in this video!
