HI all,

one more question...

can i do this earlier then my last working day ?

let's say i would annulate my current work permit visa here at the local immigration office in korat...

they will put last working day on there.... (25/04/2018)

can i go to mudhakan consulate right after songkran (20/04 or something like that) to do this new visa thing?

or would that cause issues with my work permit as i would need to work till 25/04

HI all,

Thanks for all the info...

is there some service bureau at the border that i reputable...

only reason i ask is that my wife and i get pretty irritated when doing things like this....

we have every year a fight when we need to do our taxes .... this visa thing was always done by the companies lawyer office so i was always painless....

but if we going to have to run for other things while there then i know already it is going to end up in a fight....

so to avoid that i would prefer somebody help us ... at least the first time...

HI,

I was thinking to drive with my car from Korat to Nong Khai border and try to do a visa run there....

i have been in the country for about 9 years on a workpermit and visa but that visa will end 25th of april when my workpermit ends (visa is normally valid till 10 march 2019) but it is tied to my workpermit so i guess i better make sure to do a visa run....

now here are the questions

Is there any service that does these things in Korat?

if i do this by myself... aka drive myself... any problems to expect?

can i do a visa run ?

object is to get a new visa after this visa run, based on my marriage to my Thai wife (also married more than 10 years with her)

but the reason i can't get the marriage visa now is that i don't have the 400.000 bath on a bank book for more then 2 months....

i have more then that amount on a long term fund (provident fund) but i am not sure if they will accept this as proof??

also what do i need to say at the border... they will see this visa that show valid till 10 march 2019?

if really necessary i can fly out .... but i like to keep the costs down.... and this would also mean drive to BKK.. fly out... come back and drive back which will be at least a 2 days journey....

i rather drive to Vientiane and stay a day there then doing the flight thing....  like to see the sights :)

So what is my best way as a nearly 51 year old Belgian citizen to have this fixed in an easy, least expensive way?

you guys use some agency to apply for this ? if yes can recommend me one ?

or have a good source how to begin at this ?

I would like to apply this year for this status of permanent resident after being here for 3 years on a work permit...

I am married with a Thai Wife ... so i would get the discount rate

Somebody released chuck norris in Phuket :)

Just a quick follow up to thank those who shared an opinion.

I now have an operational server and I am very happy with it. All equipment was purchased off the shelf in Pantip Plaza.I went with a Chenbro case (RM41416). Quite pricey at 21,200 baht but with 16 removable drive trays and plenty of space inside for internal mounts it is exactly what I needed.

Sands computers on the ground floor had some very nice Supermicro solutions starting from 140,000 baht. Nice but too rich for me. Found another shop on the third floor which also had some nice cases but at 59,000 baht for case and power supply again too rich for me. Settled on a small shop on the second floor mentioned by someone in an earlier post for all the gear. PCG Computers near the back escalators.

After all the discussion I finally decided to stick with unRaid. I did a lot of research into other options mentioned here, going so far as to build test systems in old boxes I had laying around. The clincher for me was the support community for unRaid and the fact that it is almost exclusively used by people who want a media server. People just like me so we speak the same language (not to geeky).

Setting the system up was a breeze and I had it on line and serving media in less than 3 hours. I'll leave it at that but if anyone else wants to do a similar thing I am happy to give more info on the whole process.

Here's a pic of the beast in full flight.

HI,

running unraid myself in Bangkok on a asus p5b plus motherboard with a few extra adaptec contollers.... have 12 TB of storage (12 *1tb drives) and 1 parity and 1 cache drive

all is put into a cooler master cm590 case with a few hotswap cages

was looking to expand this thing till the max of 22 drives for unraid ...

this chenbro case ... is it only the case for this price ?

or is it complete with MB and powersupplies ?

could you let us know what exactly you got for that price ?

i plan a visit to pantip next weekend ....

I will also have a look at this flexraid thing... i saw it existence a few weeks ago but didn't really look further then the wikipedia page and that mentioned that it was still in experimental phase

so guess it is time to visit the official website

anyway if you could let us know what you get for the 21000 bath then i can talk with the guy to get the same
