    How do you back up your storage?

    I am getting ready to put a 1.5 TB drive in my HTPC. I plan to archive most of my DVD collection to the HD. Then I began thinking, "What happens if the HD fails?" Ripping all those disks is a rather large time investment. Should I just use Raid-1 (and get a 2nd drive)? The way I see it, I...

    Help a frugal spender...Crossfire wanted

    I presently have a DFI NF7-Ultra (I think, its been 2 years since I got it). Its run wonderfully, is moderately overclocked, and has 2 gig of ram.

    I have a quick question for all the overclockers out there. I finally got my 9NDA3+ working with SATA ports 1 + 2. For those of you that don't know, those ports are blocked by most AGP card heatskins. After much frustration, I made my own SATA cables by cutting open the boots of several SATA...

    9NDA3+.....SATA won't fit...

    I just picked up this motherboard. I first want to say that this system went together VERY easily. Not a single problem with getting the OS installed on a Raid array. My Adata Vitesta DDR500 worked flawlessly. No overclocks yet, but I will. One problem is that I have a Radeon9800 with a...
