    RAID cards and existing data

    Hi All, I'm looking for a SATA RAID card to build a RAID 1 array with, however for a number of reasons I need to make sure that I can build an array without wiping the existing data on the drive. Creating the array and then copying the data over isn't really an option for a number of...

    *BREAKTHROUGH* Gillette FIVE blade Fusion Razor -- $8.44 w/ replacement cartridge and storage case

    grappa, thank you so much for that post. I got my Merkur Hefty classic razor in the mail yesterday with some violet shaving soap and a badger brush. It's without a doubt the best shave I've ever had in my life! No bumps, not a bit of razor burn, and the closest shave I've ever had. It took...

    Does anyone here remember the Toyota MR2 and Honda CRX?

    Amused, were you on MR2OC? I've got a 1989 MR2 that I bought as an NA Automatic. Last year I converted it to manual and put in a 20v JDM Silvertop, which puts down about what the SC does, around 135 to the wheels, while weighing just over 2300 lbs with AC. Also, for the record the MR2 was...

    *HOT* Free KY Warming Gel

    Didn't like this stuff, as it's already plenty hot in there. What would be fun would be some sort of cooling liquid. Without getting too technical, that feels much... well... cooler. Hot deal though :)

    UPDATE: Freezer trick worked! well sortof.

    I have an old hard drive I found last night, and when I plug it into my system the whole computer shuts off a second after I power it on, like its tripping a breaker. I have to shut the PSU off directly before I can power on again. Why would this happen?

    Power management questions

    My computer is on 24 hours a day like a lot of people, but I probably only use it for about 2 hours, more if I'm playing through a game. I have 3 hard drives (two SATA WD 80 gigs, and one PATA Seagate 160) and currently I don't have them spin down. I've come from the school of thought that...

    Rumored Xbox 360 shipments to BestBuy stores

    I never understood why people would play an inferior game just because it looks better. You just admit that the gameplay (THE PART YOU'RE INVOLVED IN) is worse, but you play it because it looks better. I dislike people like you. People like you are the reason that we get year after year of...

    Rumored Xbox 360 shipments to BestBuy stores

    You paid $400 to play a version of Madden that has LESS functionality than last years version, but looks a bit better. That's the whole theme of this launch. Hey, the games are identical to one's that came out last year, but they look a bit better. And why would you think that someone...

    Xbox 360 Wireless Network adpater $49.99

    The PS2 just passed the 100 million shipped mark last week - I'd say their bank account is doing just fine, considering the console itself has been profitable for at least 3 solid years worldwide.

    Anyone have experience with aftermarket iPod batteries?

    LCD Backlight replacement

    My backlight blew a few weeks ago, so today I decided to rip the LCD apart and replace it - having no idea how ridiculously complicated the monitor would be! A few hours, and a few beers later, I somehow got it back together, and it lights again! Problem is, I now have 3 lines of messed up...
