    Does Size Matter: Smaller Size HDD better for OS?

    I am putting a new rig together... and have a fairly simply question about HDD allocation. All my rigs so far have had 2 or more HDDs. Used to keep the OS and Apps on one HDD and my docs, media, etc. on another. In all my previous builds, I used a small-sized HDD for my OS+App storage and...

    Anyone need dvd cases for 1 penny complete with $40 in coupons?

    Well... I Just did it. A friend and I walked out with 10 cases each - and set a record of "the cheapest product ever bought from BB" I did it more due to spite than for my need. Hope they learn that - calling customers "devil" is an "evil" business !

    USB hub freezes system

    PC Freeze - Cant Isolate the problem

    Issue: - PC freezes at its own will. Sometimes once in an hour .. sometimes once in 24 hours. - The freeze is NOT associated with a specific task. - The freeze involves no response from the keyboard or the mouse. The cursor is stuck at its last location. The power fans and LEDs are all ON. -...

    9-in-1 card reader for 3.5" bay - $24.99 - $20MIR = $4.99 + SH + Tax

    that is true- if you buy the USB version then the whole thing is USB1.1. If you buy the IEEE version, then you get USB2.0 interface (but no USB port in the front)- which in my opinion is quite pathetic. Just waiting for my rebate to show up magically!
