I heard a couple pops the other night but that could have been gunshots. Both are unusual for where I live.

Lol, got an email from the amazon vendor they are sending replacements and aren't requiring me to send the enclosures I have back. What do you have for tape? Affordable? Not opposed to this but from what I glanced at the prices were higher than just getting a bunch of drives. Exactly my...

Well crap, I didn't research the external enclosures good enough and they won't take my drives, only handles 2TB total. That would have been handy to have in the amazon product description. Read some colorful reviews of the drobos, shan't be doing that. Huge price on those things too. Given...

My important data is stored in three places, all hard drives, some is even burnt to disks. This stuff is just the movies and stuff I collect which represents a large enough PITA to rerip that I want a backup. No one can think of backup software that will take my big disk and put it on several...

Right now I am just copying stuff in folders manually till the drive is full = PITA Looking for "something" that will automate this and span the attached drives. On the windows raid array span won't it complain when I shut off the drives and remove them for storage? The idea is to save them...

Actually if you want to go get good and pissed off at the cost of data here go look at #ppaiddata on twitter.

Damn: “@jonathan_may: RT @csoghoian: Vodafone India charges $2 US for 4GB of prepaid data per month.”

So you all don't like my USB drives and some sort of file copy idea? Till now that's all I have done with it, only manually drive by drive.

For backup I want to attach a bunch of 2TB drives via USB, however many it takes to cover the backup data size. Looking for suggestions on what backup solution to use that will backup this large amount of data on one big drive to these multiple disk targets.

I'm on a ATT gophone prepay smartphone plan and the biggest data plan for that is 500MB for $25. The data expires in 30 days but if you add more data before it expires you can roll over unused data up until you reach 1.5GB. Or if you use it up too fast you can add more as quickly as you want...

Only 100W? I guess it isn't good enough for the big boys.

Burn the hard drive while wearing hazmat suit. Put on YouTube Profit?

An interesting note on this, when I updated the firmware on my drive it reset the wearout indicator back to the top.

You would think. As annoying as the intel raid manager is on this same machine popping up and saying hey everything is fine peace out on every single login you would imagine the LSI software should pop up and say you need to look at this. I'm just happy I didn't give merc an I told you so...

My blackberrys have actually been pretty good in the durability department for past phones. My current one is a bold 9650 and I worry about it because you can squeeze the sides and watch the screen distort. We are all issued otter cases but I don't like that it turns the phone into a massive...

Ah, check of the log says background initialization started. I guess I am running without parity at the moment. Funny I didn't get a more obvious warning, would think that is a bit of a big deal.

Phew, got another PERC 6i in. All exactly the same firmware revisions which I thought odd. Dropped it in and loaded the detected foreign config and was up and running in seconds. The config utility isn't asking for anything and seems happy. Run a consistency check anyway?

Not my week. Got some disks not showing in my server now. I tried moving power cables around and I didn't see any changes. But when I swapped the two SFF-8484 connectors on the card I did see my drives show up in the other location. Sounds like a bad controller card, agree?

Yeah, the last time I tried that sort of thing I think the bootable disk was a seperate download. This will be cool to check out again.

Oh, I didn't know the same disk contained both.

I meant a linux version that would boot and RUN off the DVD. I don't need to partition and install a distro to disk just to fix this issue.

double post delete

Cause 1: The file uses an ACL = I can't take ownership of this folder. I can't even view the bmw folders security settings, errors out. Not a deep path. Not in use. I found out that if I put things in that corrupted bmw folder I suddenly show two folders with the same bmw name in the car...

Looking into this now. The thing is I JUST reformatted this computer for the same thing, under IE8. Of course it was time and there were a number of other things I wanted to fix like SP1 not installing but that was one of the reasons. Now same thing with IE9. IMO really there should be no...

Can you recommend me something that will boot a CD to the OS and I can work with the NTFS disks I have? I am really out of the loop on that. Checked out the suggested and I don't see a simple bootable disk download unless I am missing it. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download

How I feel about IE at the moment: http://www.boingboing.net/2011/06/14/pulp-fiction-edited.html This is WAY explicit.

The goal was to import my bookmarks to my ipad/iphone. itunes won't import from firefox directly. Firefox 4 > IE9 or IE8 = corrupted drive / unable to import complete bookmarks to itunes/ipad/iphone. Firefox 4 > Safari 5 = unable to import complete bookmarks to itunes/ipad/iphone, but no...

The real issue is apparently is my profile in firefox has some problems, but works fine in day to day use. Both IE and safari importing bookmarks have trouble doing a direct import of bookmarks from firefox, neither one comes up with the complete list and both appear to have the same incomplete...

working in powershell:

No hidden files. Windows 7.

Somehow I have a problem moving bookmarks from FF4 to IE9 and in doing so it created a bad folder. I can delete everything in the folder except for this, says the file/folder can't be found. There is nothing in the folder. Can't change the read only properties either. Logged in as admin and...

What are you looking for the Ultimate?

Any iphone in any condition is worth over $200 minimum. Even if non functional and out of warranty apple will generally swap it for an out of warranty replacement for $200.

Cool, new record low for me at $47 electric bill. I was out of home a lot may, june, july last year.

Yes, upgrading the program doesn't migrate the data to a new database format in Outlook. It wasn't until just last year we switched at work. I still have the old yearly backups and each year is right about 2gb, funny how that worked out.

I just got hit by a nice nigerian scam. I have my phone up on craigslist. Some guy asked about it and I replied with my paypal address and what shipping cost (inside the US). He replied that he has paid me. I also get a email that not even at a glance looks like real paypal mentioning "The...

I like handbrake a lot, fairly easy with the built in presets and it looks ok on ipad when done.

Thanks, I will look for those.

I would love to buy an updated disk from microsoft with SP1 on it, that isn't available either?

I have an extra one here. I think it is good, you want it? Can't find a date code on it. No wire. Free plus ship. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh157/scottjalbert/items/PERC/1c328d8a.jpg

Apple just put out 4.3.3 which addresses the concerns of the location data tracking stuff. Any of the other manufacturers push out an update that fast?

My friend and I did the two pack, he wasn't into the portal 1 but he blew past me and already finished portal 2. I haven't had the time myself but I was really enjoying it last weekend. Portal is just no pressure fun.

I have never seen the twin peaks shows, Just loaded them in netflix for lack of something better to do. Is the movie supposed to be a prequel or after watching the series?

My suggestion from the other thread.

Well between this and the advanced format drives uou should start buying up stock.

Over on a cell phone forum i frequent there were people asking if rooting the phone and unlocking it could get them free phone/data service. There were planty of people interested in that. I find it a bit staggering how people don't have the simplest grasp of the concepts involved of making...

Att just added to their prepaid plans to include smartphone plans. They have some more reasonable data rates than previous prepaid plans but the top one is still only 500mb. You can auto renew early though. Voice is either $2 a day or $.10 a minute. Kicker is you can even put an old iphone on...

Got this in the email this morning, I had no idea I was on their mailing list which I will be correcting.

On some keyboards i have been known to remove the left windows key. I dont need to copy past and accidently touch the win key and bounce myself right out of the app. Almost all regular keyboards the keys just pull straight up and off and you can put it back later. Dont do it on a laptop though.
