    Noise isolation ideas for Terra server?

    I'm incredibly fortunate to have a Terra 88TB server. As was noted in this thread though, the mechanical noise of the drives is quite loud (like old SCSI drive loud). New terra server (88tb) very noisy HDDs!. Unfortunately, I have one of those more humble homes/setups where I do not have a...

    SOLD: Strato 12TB for sale

    Sold I'm selling my Kaleidescape Strato 12 TB movie player for $5000. I'm including the remote control, power supply, power cord, HDMI cable, and network cable. It always sat on a shelf (never rack mounted) in a smoke and pet-free environment, and had rather light use. There are no visible...

    SOLD: Alto 4TB for sale

    Movie updates - where does it go?

    I have an Alto 4T, Strato 12T, and now a Terra 24T. When an update for a movie comes out, does the update overwrite the original movie if the movie is on the Alto or Strato? Or does the update get routed to the Terra, and the prior copy deleted off the Strato or Alto? I know this is less...

    Fragmentation

    Not sure if this is the right subforum... I was wondering how Kaleidescape deals with disc fragmentation? I had downloaded several movies on an Alto (in HD), then got a Strato. I was trying to delete the HD verions off the Alto and retain only the 4k versions on the Strato via webpage...

    Cover art

    I just discovered a user can edit movie info via a web browser for each movie. One of the features is that you can upload different cover art. I've had a few Bluray movies (where the recycle the same disc I'm sure) show up with different cover art. Seems this could be a way to change that (if I...

    4K vs HD quality in older movies

    I saw where the Back to the Future trilogy is being re-released in 4K. Is there anywhere (forum, website, etc) to tell if/how/to what extent a re-release (or release of an older movie) is improved from the previous HD version?
