    PSA: Once you go SSD, you can't stand going back.

    Interesting tid-bit. On my new MBP that I bought in May, I went ahead and got the OWC Mercury Pro SATA3 240GB SSD. That has been my system drive with the original 750GB (This is the 15" High-Res Anti-Glare, 2.3GHz i7, 8GB Model) in the Optical Bay. Now, this machine is fast, really fast. Running...

    Audigy SE as Upgrade for onboard?

    Money is not really an issue, I just like getting value for my money. I can get the Audigy SE for $35 so it seems like a good value for the money. I game, for my ears, the Onboard seems great, but I would like hardware acceleration for sound in my games, I'm hoping this also eliminates my...

    P2P for Private(LAN) Networks?

    Here is the deal, my fileserver gets hammered at the LAN I help host, reducing its output to 23MB/sec. Since the network is all gigabit, I'm thinking that the best way to maximize throughput would be to have a private P2P setup just for the LAN. This would help immensely with the distrobution of...

    SOLVED! See solution in follow up posts. So here is the problem, I just added another 3 hdds to my Raid5 array, bringing me up to 2TB. Fdisk recognizes the drive geometry and correctly interprets it, but it will not allow me to use more then 4960 cylinders, period. This is on Fedora Core 5...

    Fun with exploding MOSFETs (Belkin UPS)

    So I get home from a LAN party, hook my UPS back in(Using surge port on my primary UPS), turn it on and sparks fly. Thankfully, I had not connected any equipment yet. Tried UPS again with no AC connected and it gives a red light and contunuous tone. When I moved it out of the way so I could...

    Question reguarding UPS performance versus Kill-A-Watt.

    So, right now I have my Fileserver on a 485VA UPS. But, when I pull the wall plug the UPS will trip. The fileserver has an idle load of 132W; 0.99PF; 1.12A; 119.0V AC(Fluctuates between 118.8 and 119.5); 134VA Startup wattage goes as high as 240W. Under maximum file transfer load it never...

    Need help locating SNES 3D Headset.

    Back in '98 or so I bought a 3D/VR headset for the SNES at a liquidation store for $30. It was a simple setup and had a movement bar that attached to your shoulder to detect head turns. The distinctive feature was that it used the SNES/N64 Video connector to hook up to the SNES. Does anyone...

    Why not have a USB/FW PPU?

    I posted this in a thread earlier, but as it was on the third page, it got no responses: Here is a thought. Why PCI/PCIe? Why not FW/USB2? Transfers after level load will be minimal. Latency? The biggest bitch I see here [IRT PhysX] is no one having room for a card, can that issue be...

    Expandable software Raid-5?

    If I setup a 4x 320GB RAID-5 software array, and want to eventually expand to 8x, can I do this without recreating the whole array? I want to add one HDD every few months. Or should I just say screw it, buy another 4 HDDs now, and be done with it? (4 more HDDs = $450, Hardware 8Port PCI-X =...

    Advanced gigabit networking and segmentation for LAN (VLAN) on the cheap.

    Oh, here is the setup. Our Lan has started to make a $5 donation per person mandantory to be eligable for door prizes. This should bring anywhere from $200-700/month for lan improvement. Our current setup consists of a hodge podge of two Dell 2324 switches (24x 10/100, 2x 1000, unmanaged)...

    Managed switch question...

    I can get a Dell 5224 for under $400. Its a 24port managed, all gigabit switch. The plan is to use it with 12 Dell 2324 switches(24x 10/100, 2x 1000, dumb switch) connected using the two gigabit ports. This would give the lan, 83Mbits per user, should be more than enough, there is no reason to...

    Which Panaflo?

    I'm modding a G5 Case. The cooling plan is to have two 120x38MM panaflo fans at the bottom of the case, as well as my neopower 480W, using a gutted 120x25MM fan as a spacer. Cool air gets sucked in the bottom, and ends up being pushed out the all aluminum grill front/back(mostly front). It's...

    OCZ Modstream 520W or Antec TP2 550W?

    The OCZ only has a single 26A 12V rail, versus dual 19A on the Antec. I love the modular connectors on the OCZ, but I'm willing to forgo that if the single 26A rail is going to cause me issues in the future. My budget for the PSU is around $130. PSU must use at least a 120MM fan, bigger is...

    Dell SC420 with P4 520 @ 3.73GHz?
