    Looking for input on SAS drives in HTPC

    Awesome, thank you Micrornd, So, with those, do I still need a controller card? I was under the impression SATA would work with an SAS controller, but SAS would not work with a SATA capable board.

    Looking for input on SAS drives in HTPC

    I came by about 10 2.5" SAS 900gb drives as well as one 3.5" 3tb drive (all 6gb/s) from a family member over thxgiving dinner. For the overall capacity, I'm considering adding them to my htpc, as it would give me another 3-4 years worth of growth, as I've got abou 8tb of data on sata drives...

    Suggestions for a thin bi/trifold wallet?

    It is definitely a little taller than I was looking for, but it easily fits in the back pocket of any jeans I've worn. I've actually come to like the taller bit - I know you didn't want two money pockets, but the taller size means there's one full depth pocket that I keep receipts and notes in...

    Suggestions for a thin bi/trifold wallet?

    http://www.all-ett.com/ I have the original in leather and it is awesome... Best wallet I've ever had. I carry 4+ credit cards, a couple IDs, some rewards type cards (AAA, Sams, etc) and about 10 business cards. Even w/ all that junk, it stays thin enough not to annoy me when I'm sitting.

    Poland Spring bottled water - the best bottled water. I visited the midwest this Christmas and they didn't have Poland Spring and that sucked.

    Good tennis / running / walking shoe for everyday wear?

    I'm looking for a shoe that works just as well with a collared button up shirt as it does with a polo or t-shirt. I don't want it to look like I just got done running a 5k and then threw on a pair of jeans. At the same time, if I want to run a dang 5k in this shoe, I should be able to ( I...

    The Hobbit.. in HFR (high frame rate) 3D

    I saw the movie in 48 FPS / 3D on Tuesday. It definitely has a weird feeling. A lot of the time ispent trying to place what it made me think of and it ended up being british shows / documentaries. Overall, I thought the movie was okay. It started a little slow, but delivered toward the end...

    Clicking noise when clutch is depressed (and I don't mean sad) - Throwout bearing?

    Update: The friction ring attached to the aluminum flywheel had the bolts back out and it was just spinning. Clutch replacement in progress, it was getting worn anyway.
