I upgraded my wife's dm1z to SSD but Intel SSD tool gave me an error if I tried to apply TRIM. In this thread (http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2311627) I had an answer by VL and I was ok why that; but I installed the free version of "Hard Disk Sentinel" and it confirmed that TRIM...
So I finally found the perfect excuse to upgrade to a samsung 840 pro 256gb by swapping my wife's HP dm1z HDD with my intel 510 120gb SSD. The whole process went smooth (I cloned her drive using acronis 2013) but if I try to run the Intel SSD tool I get the message: RAID array detected, if RAID...
Most on the time I use ACR when I'm working with my OM-D files but I like the fast results I can get with the Oly software, and the filters I find them useful sometimes; but the 5 to 10 seconds it takes to refresh the image is killing me, even with my 2500k @ 4GHz.

I got a rootkit that can't get rid off (trojan BC miner) and just decided to reformat by SSD and be done with it. The problem is that my original win 7 dvd OEM wont boot. I get a message stating that I need a bootable media in the drive and then my regular win7 installation boots. I've seen...
Most people in this forum totally disregard this benchmark, why is it so bad?
The reason I'm asking is because if you type "cpu benchmark" in google, the passmark site is at the top of the list, so a lot of semi-informed users will make their buying decisions base on this benchmark. I know I...
As you can see in my sig I dont game but I like the eventual PS2 game. The guys at the PSCX2 recommend at least a 9600gt/8800gt or HD4750. I know that the new 7750 will be ok but I dont feel like spending $100 on that. Also I need a low profile card since I cant use the top PCIe port (blame...
After building the rig in my sig I decided it was time to indulge myself with a good pair of headphones. Went to my favorites store website (B&H), look for the pair with the highest number of positive reviews and ended up with the Sennheiser HD280 for $80. WOW Best sound Ive experience at the...
Just browsing for HDD on the egg I found this:

Both are 7200rpm, 64MB cache, sata III, bare drives.
How come the newer 3T one, that uses the 1T...
In my rig the PSU is at the bottom of the case but since it sits under my desk, the PSU fan is sucking air from the inside of the case, otherwise the carpet will block the air. I want to make sure I run my system with positive pressure and I was thinking on flipping the PSU and put my ring on...
