Wow Doug. You've tripled your usual production today. I guess the new card works well. I hope it isn't too noisy.

Thanks. That will do the job.

This is only true for a user environment. If you put the drive in a busy database server, this will be its usage pattern. Granted, those aren't SAS drives and shouldn't be use in such an environment, but I'm sure they'll be anyway since several companies don't have a lot of monetary ressources...

I'm stuck on this one. One of my users need to be able to send e-mails from multiple e-mail addresses. I can add many e-mail addresses from which she can receive e-mails, but there's only one from which she can send messages. I can't figure out how to do this. No, I cannot use a POP3...

I didn't know that the dispatcher from the Los Angeles Police Department was selling drive. Regarding the LAMB controller, it would probably be possible, but I'm not aware of any such drive.

I've been telling people to buy the Corsair Neutron GTX since it launched. I'm very glad to see those test confirm what I strongly suspected. It has one of the best garbage collection implementation out there and it pays. I've even used it in a few servers and so far, no issue.

That's an horrible news. I hope she doesn't take it too badly. There are people who are able to look at the bright side of everything, no matter the obstacles and complications they face. I hope she's like that.

Apparently, having a great cardio does nothing for blood pressure. I've just have mine measured. My heart rate is only at 52ppm, but my blood pressure is at 136 over 74. Despite the fact that I've trained more regularly recently and that I've cut sodium to a minimum in my food for several...

The news you linked dated back to September 13th, 2012. I read about the 7-platter upcoming drive from WD's HGST division, but it wasn't this news.

CPU World has posted bits of informations regarding the next generation highest-end x86 server processor from Intel : the Ivy Bridge-EX. However, the only place I can find information regarding the frequency and cache amount is, strangely, on wikipedia. Of course, being on wikipedia, we can...

You could opt to avoid it and simply die. There's always a choice. But sometimes, like this time, there is none you like.

That's very useful information. I've created several VMs on VirtualBox versions older than 4.2.16. Fortunately, none of them is a Windows 8 needing to be upgraded.

I think you mentioned that the Linux NVidia GPU client was pretty stable. I currently have two systems running the Windows GPU client, both on NVidia GTX580. If I convert both of those to Linux, should I expect similar or slightly better production? One is an AMD Athlon II X3 435 and the...

A single GTX780 can do about 2/3 of Mark's production, so it would bring you much closer to our pace. Your production is already quite good though, considering that you have only one machine running the client (and you are not insane).

Breaking news : The state of national finances is so alarming that the federal government turns to meth dealers for help...

I usually know what happened to most people I've known who needed one.

Despite what's written on the troubleshooting page on µsoft web site, it worked after a round of updates. Supporting their products makes you feel like being in a maze. Sometimes, you even cross MS employees, but they appear to know where the exit is more than you do. Incredible.

I've just learn the hard way that the supposedly free upgrade to Windows 8.1 isn't available to Windows 8 Pro installation with a KMS activation. Of course, Microsoft doesn't advertise this as loud as their "get Windows 8.1 free now" campaign. Thank you again Microsft for having wasted my time...

Wow. When you're behind Nigeria and Kazakstan, you have a problem. Australia is a networking third-world country.

Being annoyed and angry is pretty much a permanent state for me. I'm fine with people driving slowly on the highway, as long as they stay in the right lane. I would rip the flesh off their face with my bare hands when they drive slowly in front of me on single lane roads where I can't overtake...

I'd love to see where you've picked those statistics. I know that in Québec, this is absolutely false. For instance, most people going from either Québec city of Montréal to towns like Rimouski (600Km from Montréal), Matane (at least 500Km from Québec city) or even Gaspé do it by car. My...

I removed a tree stump this afternoon using a 2¼lbs axe and a shovel. It took me almost two hours. I almost had to dig a hole beneath it in order to cut all the fu**ing roots. It was on a barely cleared field so there were lots of rocks too. I slept for a few hours afterward.

Bleepingcomputer.com works fine for me at the moment and thanks to Mooner and Bozo for sticking around that long.

Not their Cloud product. I've seen their regular AV product on a few (normally infected) customer's boxes. Panda never impressed me. They also often dodge participating in performance reviews by sites like AV comparatives or VBulletin. Normally, when you don't want to show your product next...

I know I don't have the slightest idea of what treacly means. So if the purpose was to make a point to my intend, I must conclude it failed. Me no comprende senior.

It's a known issue with SSD using a Marvell controller. Many Crucial and Plextor drives exhibit this behavior.

When the two modern cops are singing childish songs and Stalone, sat on the back seat of the car, says : "Put me back in the freezer". If you don't recall, watch the movie again.

Why an adult male human being cares about some pink poney cartoon? You make me feel like Stalone's caracter in Demolition Man.

I don't know how much you expected to pay for such a controller, but I've found an IBM ServerRAID M5014 at 300AU$ and another ServerRAID 5110 (based on the LSI 2208 - successor of the 2108 ) for ~220$ (plus ~45AU$ for shipping). Unless you are lucky at a local shop, I don't think you'll find...

It's expensive, but it's probably not THAT expensive. Considering the money Cisco asks for its SSD, filling one of their 2U server with 24 SSD would probably cost more than what I described above. Assuming a cost of 2000$ per 400GB UltraDimm, the DL360p setup I imagined would cost...

No, I don't. At least at home. Using RAID on my disk won't increase my FAH production. Why ask this in this thread?

Any controller card based on the LSI 2108. Visit this page for more informations. I've used the IBM, Dell and HP flavors. All will do what you want and can be found, used, in many refurb computer shops and online stores.

It's been a while since you've contributed, so maybe you forgot (or it simply didn't existed back then), but please take the time to get a passkey. It will take ten units before the bonus kicks in, but once it does, each unit you complete will reward you with much more points.

I'm very curious about the price of those : http://www.smartstoragesys.com/products/ulltradimm.asp Of course, it isn't affordable, but if the 400GB model is around 2K$, it would be a very interesting option for server fast storage. I suppose, but am not sure, that you can put standard RAM next...

Ask JTR to build you one. He won't rob you and it will be well made. However, I don't think he'll bother if what you want is a cheap product.

It uses Chromium as a base. I'll try it for a while. It looks reasonably modern. Thanks for sharing.

If you ever are able to boot an LGA2011 motherboard using a Celeron G450, please tell us. Ddrueding, are you sure you haven't bent one of the LGA pins?

Correction : It's very easy to keep an appartment clean if you live alone as long as it's not cluttered. I live in a three-floor house now and keeping it clean is very simple since I do it and I'm no Marie-Antoinette. But back when I lived in a small appartment with the same amount of stuff, I...

Celeron are typically below the Pentium branded chips. For instance, a Pentium G630 is slightly faster than a Celeron G540. I follow that segment less than I used to when I owned a shop, but I remember that. Chewy is right regarding the upcoming Atom-derived Pentium though.

Congratulations for the 100 million milestone. I won't be there myself before mid-November.

The problem with most SD and microSD cards is their very limited lifespan regarding their amount of cell rewrites. The adapter is 80$, but there are a bunch of cheap 120GB SSD, which all allow for much higher write cycle amounts, at ~100$. Therefore, I'm not sure the adapter is such a good...

That system is not overclocked and it's also over-ventilated, if something. It cannot overheat. I didn't use any flag, but I'll add the client-type advanced flag to the GPU unit.

I have a lot of trouble with my second most powerful right now. With a Radeon HD 7870, it only produces ~5500ppd with the GPU core on a project 11293 unit. Before I reinstalled the graphic driver yesterday, it often showed the unit to be 99% completed while it wasn't the case. That lasted for...

That's plain and simple karma for hijacking a Xeon thread with i7 talks.

You can plug your SAS drives up to 10m from the computer. Otherwise, none I can think of.

I'm not really into boat racing but that was interesting to watch.

I think the power issues would affect his co-workers too, unless they aren't in the same office. The only possible wires which touch are between the guy's ears, IMO.

Our current main supplier sells Fujitsu gears or at least used to. I'll ask their peddler about it tomorrow.

I have more free space to "dispose" of my problems in my new house than I did before I moved. I also plan to start a garden in my backyard next Spring and I'm in search of a good fertiliser.
