This is the best 2TB reliability wise I have used for file server builds.
Have two under my belt total of 20 drives no RMAs and one has been going strong for 6 months.

I can honestly say I am some kind of authority on these drives I have 15 of them in a Raid 6 array;

I have had 6 failures in a year and a half. Me and the seagate RMA department should be on a first name basis.
I have found that with any hard drive...

These are nice drives we use them on our servers for mySQL storage, burst through at like 170 meg reads and no seek time.
If you have been waiting for a cheap SSD deal to upgrade this is it. Put your OS and apps you use all...
I am looking at the "M350 Universal Mini-ITX"
Anyone got any other recommendations?
I want small not expandable, this thing is gonna be an htpc that PXE boots off the fileserver.
They load these things onto a skid that is shipped out via distribution centers FYI.
That is why after a week with no updates they are finally shipping my package according to their customer service.
I know it's cheep, but this is a pretty poor shipping method in my mind.
1. The DS is the old brick one with a crappy back light. The DS lite is the smaller sexy white(other colors now too) version. The DSi is Nintendo's new money printer and includes a camera and an sd storage slot so you can store media and games.
2. The latest generation cards work with all of...

Its 200 at newegg.
These things only perform a little over the Q6600. My pick is still the Q6600 for clockability.
Comparing TF2 on 360 to the PC is like apples and oranges.
The PC version is far superior. Between 32 man servers and user content it is the only way to play.
BlackJack, you can get to 2.4 pretty easily stable with the following settings;

800mhz is the memory.
The chip is set to a 9x multiplier by default. Make sure you go into the power booster section of the bios it is on the right hand pane. If you have not overclocked a computer before I would recommend doing a little reading.
I did upgrade on 4 of the machines I...
Thats odd the motherboard box that came with mine had multiple sata power adapters along with any extra screws.
If you are ready to clock it you should get to 3.0ghz no prob.
Go to the performance booster zone in the bios. and set your FSB to 333Mhz and adjust the memory timings to 5 5 5...
RROD does suck, but I would prefer an old 360. Refurbs do get a burn in test at refurb centers. Some are more honest than others.
Keep in mind the new arcades have lite-on drives and you cannot flash the DVD firmware if you ever plan on modding the console. With the old units they have...
Yeah but what happens when you run out of hard drive bays down below and have to move into the 5.25 bays?
Great deal, good thing I have a door on the front of my sonata these things look fugly.
Warning,
This + HD content + Uncapped Internet= a hole in your wallet
I got three already, I am at the point of needing to build a raid array, but I don't know where to dump the data in the mean time.
I remember buying 250s in 3 packs from Woot at 50 bucks a pop and thinking that was a...
I just did some testing to answer some concerns here.
I threw an x1300 in the over clocked machine with the base power supply and it worked fine. I did not have time for extensive testing, but I loaded up open arena and played a few rounds.
Also, I tried the most CPU intensive encode I...
1.8GHZ for 1080p is pushing it. When you get into high bitrates it will and did get choppy on my machine without an overclock. I know overclocking is not a sure thing, but I am 4 for 4 on these things at 3.0 ghz. To control XBMC I just use the laptop in my living room and synergy. I had to set...
I figured I would order from these guys and give the hardware a rundown before posting this. I just built a couple XBMC HTPCs for me and friends.

Am I the only one that realizes that you can build a whole file server for well under 200 dollars now?
http://www.portatech.com/25351...nes_with_Intel_CPU.htm
the e2160(e4300 equivalent) is 138 bucks, 2 gigs of ram is 15 bucks on newegg .

FYI. You can achieve this with any router running Tomato or DD-WRT

I really need to get a new lcd screen only for a busted sony vaio fs series 15.4 inch.
If anyone knows of any good parts sites that specialize in this kind of stuff please let me know.
As of now the only decent prices I can find are on Ebay, but it still it 230 bucks plus.
Thanx for...
http://www.shentech.com/970150.html get one of these and hook it up to your xbox or 360 .
Sure it is not real surround but sounds damm good for the price .
You know it, back when she actually had some looks .
