How long you been using it as a drum stick?

I just picked up one of these. I find working in a DAW distracting from playing/recording. Also looking to boost my skills with limitations

Its the start of 2025 and i bought a z420! Mostly cause of the name. But my entire lab is HP. It fits my needs and exceeds my needs by a lot. So it will work perfect. Im paying .12c USD(.07off peak) for power. So i dont mind the dinosaurs! ❤️🧡💛💚

got he same issue and it was due to animated backgrounds, use a pic and all good I'm using as a dev box so I could care less about that moving thing ... the only issue I have is the Airplay fails to hook up to my TV get the code & stuff but tv is black

Thank you for proxmox demo, it was the first proxmox working installation I've seen. Very comprehensive.

Yeah you'll need headphones to the soundcard (not earbuds) to deal with the fan noise for sure which aren't good in a hot environment lol so on with the noisey air conditioner too!

got a z420 as well. could you help make a tutorial demonstration how to enable resize bar, nvme boot? Thx.

Thank you for this! I've been breaking my brain trying to figure out how to download a full installer and create a bootable usb for my oder Mac (using my Apple Silicon Mac). This solves both of those problems!

I have had it for 3 days and it already stopped working

I think I made the best purchase of it all getting it for about 30 bucks from ebay and pickup.

I'm using HP Z240 PC Workstation that got for £40!.

i installed sonoma in my 2011 mb air with no issues

That thing would make a very, very good workstation. It is as powerful as 5 vacuum cleaners!

I am wondering is there a Fan that is possible to buy to use instead of the stock fan for the Z420 CPU?

Personally I own one of these multi-track recorder, and I personally prefer using this due too latency issues when recording vocals with a DAW. I then exporting the wav file to my DAW to do the mixdown and mastering. The Tascam does record WAV files to 16-bit and 44.1K, so I upscale it to 24-bit and 48K adding eq, compression, de-esser and dynamics plugins and the results are just amazing! 😊

Dissing on the 006 like it's a useless tool doesn't impress.

I've had a number of Tascams including the DP-01 and the 2488 Neo. I cannot believe (or maybe I'm misunderstanding you) that you have to mixdown once you go over two tracks. Why couldn't you record drums and rhythm guitar to start (2 tracks), then add bass, then add some lead guitar, and then even some vocals (1 track for each one) and THEN mix it down? Mixing after recording 2 tracks makes no sense. Mixing after recording anything up to 8 tracks is something I've been able to do on any Tascam I've ever owned.

Yeah, I've been utilising old Supermicro server boards and Xeons of the day to fill up a mega desktop case which was originally a floor-mounted vertical server unit. For several years I was using paired 1366s with 6 cores / 12threads, and have recently replaced the guts with a slightly more updated 2011 E-2697s running on a S'micro X9DRL-3F, giving me a stonking 24C /48T , in combo with 96GB of DDR3 For the past couple of weeks I've been running BOINC to burn it in and make sure it can sit doing high demand tasks around the clock. By the time I get some VMs working properly it will be just a bit less fully capable. This time around I modded the case for better airflow and did away with the daft design of the outflow of one CPU's heat feeding directly into its neighbour's fan. It's all working so far, and fairly quiet. I'm not a gamer, in any way, all I'm interested in is fast video rendering / recoding, and photo manipulation, and for that, this is fantastic. There are a dozen drive bays in the front of this case, not all of them used for drives, but it still leaves eight for 3.5" / 2.5" or even, if I get desperate, some of those multiple 2.5 holders in a 5.25 carrier, once SSDs get dirt cheap. This is all tied up with my LAN, which has another couple of machines tagged on for storage and/ or media streaming, as well as isolated safekeeping backup.

I got a free poweredge t320 for free and I'm so damn lost

I bought a Z440 on eBay for $70.00 upgraded it with a 16 core 32 thread CPU, NVMe Hard drive, 256GB ram, 8GB graphics card (all used parts). It's a little beast, and it's very quiet.

Please try in in macbook pro 2015 11inch?

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER; It's the metal graphics gpu vs non-metal graphics gpu. Support wasn't available until 2012. This is why it either won't load properly, or in my case, become extremely lagging/glitchy. I've downloaded every MacOS from Sonoma on down, and Monterey was the best MacOS to use with flawlessness. There are a few lottery MacBooks with Metal support that came out as far back as 2010! Again, these are lottery laptops. If you get one, or happen to own one already - consider yourself extremely lucky. *** ANSWER FROM APPLE BELOW *** Support for Metal 2 and earlier: These Mac computers support Metal and Metal 2 when using the operating systems shown. OS X El Capitan or later MacBook Pro introduced in 2012 or later MacBook Air introduced in 2012 or later MacBook introduced in 2015 or later Mac mini introduced in 2012 or later iMac introduced in 2012 or later iMac Pro Mac Studio introduced in 2022 or later **** Mac Pro introduced in late 2013 or later, plus mid-2010 and mid-2012 models with a Metal-capable graphics card **** To check if you have support for metal gpu's, hold down the OPTION key while clicking the Apple Logo on the top left corner, then go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES. Now, Click on GRAPHICS/DISPLAYS. On the right side, where the information is displayed, you'll see both AMD Radeon HD 6490M GPU (or whatever graphics gpu you have installed), & you'll also see the Intel HD Graphics 3000. If you see anything saying Metal, you should have support for it. If not, you're S.O.L like I am. I enjoy MacOS Monterey, so I'm not too overly-concerned about it. I hope this helps you all!

Hi, I believe I’m following the same UA-cam video that you utilized in an attempt to update my mid 2007 MacBook 2,1 to El Capitan. I’ve used osx-patcher to create my usb drive successfully, however when I try to boot from it by holding down the options key, the USB drive is never displayed as an option. Do you have any idea why this might happen? Oddly enough if I let the system boot into OS X Lion, it sees the usb drive just fine. I’m using a 32gb USB3 drive and I’m wondering if maybe it’s too large for such an old machine and perhaps that’s why it can’t boot from it? Any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I’m using a 2009 Mac Pro 2.8 as my main machine rn. Doing film editing and film scores on this old dinosaur.

Problem is you have 4GB RAM

why would u even want to use that

Ui looks new, computer looks old…

I put a 1050 ti in a Z230 for my little brother's first PC

Buy this if you planned to lose all of your data... 😅😅😅

Hi, I have the very same thing and I found between Peavey KB series and Rolland kb amps pack a punch for the highs and lows without any distortion. This guy comes alive just for jamming and small halls. Thank for your vid, there are things I did not know it had.

hi Thanks for the video and I noticed you use a different Virtual Machine software called UTM. This is the 1st time I ever heard about this. I'm just curious according to your experience with UTM, would you consider this is a better VM software for Mac? Better than both Vmware Fusion Pro and Parallel Desktop? Thanks a lot!

Incredible, Lacie is correct?

HELLO, please tell me how you did it, i tried everything, every patch, nothing work, PLEASE!!!

I put it on my 2015 MBP and it did work, but iTunes Movie purchases would not play correctly.. movie would start and play for about 10 seconds then go black screen but audio would continue.. needless to say I went back to Monterey...

Thanks for showing me that a server can be used as a workstation! For me it was a little slow but worked fine.

Would be great to see a power drawl with your setup. Also you stould try Ubuntu instead of Windows once 10 is EOL.

I'm still using my HP Z400 (since 2010) with 4 displays. In 2010 it was half the price of a MacPro for the same hardware config. Of course a lot of update since (nvme drive, 10G network, USB3, GPU). When I bought it I never thought that I will be able to update it for so long. Writing a file at more than 700MB/s on a locale disk or to a server was not possible for normal people... I'm thinking of bying another one for parts but in 14 years the only thing that broke was 1 SAS HDD and the power button cap: I have to push the power button directly...

I am using this workstation with 32-GB DDR, 250SSD, 1TB Sata, 4gb 3D card, Working perfectly, Supports only DDR3 Ram not DDR4

The instructions for memory population are on the underneath of the top plate on my server, maybe your one is different. High fan speed without doing updates and third party fixes is due to non dell components

You can do the reverse by the network : ua-cam.com/video/r9EgLWbCwRk/v-deo.html

If you stick with windows 10 below 20H4, and use an E5-1650/80 v2 you can overclock it to run at 4Ghz all core, also, they work with regular RDIMMs, not use unbuffered ECC and will take up to 128GB of 1866Mhz ram. I ran mine with a titan X pascal for a while, and it did pretty well in 1440p gaming.

Cani i buy now Hp z420

Purchased our, off lease, HP Z420 (Xeon 1630) on eBay for $350 5 yrs ago.. Added a Samsung 950 Pro NVME (512 Gb, $316) which had a bootable BIOS that was recommended on the HP user forum website, and a recommended 3X, 4 lane, PCIE adapter card from Amaz-n ($20). Installed Win10 to the NVME and subordinated the original 250 Gb, 2.5 ” HP drive as backup. This configuration was exceptionally stable (no reboots for months, I thought it was the Xeon/ ECC combination until last year, while scrolling through web pages in Chrome, the fonts displayed started to corrupt! Purchased a Quadro P1000 ($ 100) to replace the original Quadro 2000, and upgraded the memory from singled, dual channeled ECC memory to dual sided ECC (32 Gb) of Kingston, quad channel memory, problem solved. Unfortunately, the HP Z 420 does not support TPM 2.0, no mWindows 11. It will have to be retired to a trusted NAS. Like you, I purchased a HP branded LSI 9217-4i4E PCIE x8 SAS card which the Z420 easily accommodated an installation of Proxmox which gave me the ability to run multiple VM’s and containers, the power and stability of the Z420 is an excellent value to act as a local cloud server.

I have recycled the machine, as I had no use for it, and it obviously didn't run modern macOS well. Your comments are appreciated as always, but I won't be able to implement any fixes you might suggest.

honestly I would hackintosh this computer, it would be much better

I have bought a lsi 9270 cv 8i from ebay for my z420 to use 3 , 4 tb sas drives I have lying around since this editing pc is running short of hd space and that didn't work for me, now thinking of buying 9260 8i since there are no working videos of the lsi cards on yt other than yours. Anything you have changed in bios or is it default?

would love to see more

Lately Apple has indirectly sold more Windows computers than Microsoft themselves.

Thanks for the review, it was helpful

Does this run in 4k
