    Raptors really worth it?

    The X15s are $184 at Newegg. The Raptors are $111. If you already have all the SCSI hardware, it would be worthwhile going for the X15. Is your pc already SATA compatable? Bozo :mrgrn:

    Firefox question

    I still seem to be having some problems. The home page of Storage Forum (news blurbs) is so small I can't read it with my glasses on. When I increase the text size (crtl +) the home page stays the same but the forum replies get larger. Then going to another site, it looks like my screen...

    Actually, it seems that Storage Forum is the site that doesn't change. I just started using Firefox and haven't been to too many site. I'll keep checking. Bozo :mrgrn:

    Stuck in my Cube

    At the time these servers were spec'd out, Intel didn't have a MB with video and meet our other requirements. These were the cheapest video cards that we could find. Radeon 7500 for $65 US. I guess we'll pay for them in the long run. Do you think they would be okay without the fan? Bozo...

    Stuck in my Cube

    Well, at least I'm not alone.....worldwide anyway. I've been working on a small file sever (store and forward) with a loud screeching noise comming from inside the case. (Intel D845 MB, P4-1.6GHz, 1M ram, 2-18GB Cheetas in RAID 1) Started disconnecting fans and still had the noise. Then it...

    Over The Top

    Sounds like the IBMs we used to have. When you consider the cost and the spec sheet, they should be a real ball of fire. But the setup renders them as fast as molasses in the acrtic. Our Netfinity servers had multiple SCSI controllers, but everything was conected to one, the IBM model. The...

    I don't have the registry address handy, but you also should stop the kernal from being paged. 'Disable executive paging' or somthing like that in the memory management section. What problems have you encontered? Bozo :mrgrn:

    SCA: SCSI, IDE, or SATA?

    I must be missing something. I have 15 Raptors in service for some time now without problems. All in some sort of RAID setup. The one that I did RMA was for a broken serial cable connector; the drive still functioned fine. And the replacement still has a 5 year warenty. Fill me in..... Bozo...

    Hard Drive Drawer / Caddy - what's good?

    I've been using the Kingston StorCase carriers/recievers for about 5 years now. Their newest reciever has a SATA connector on it but will accept carriers for SATA or PATA. Real nice if you have more than one type of hard drive or are planning to move to SATA. Bozo :mrgrn:

    My son was complaining about his computer being slow and he couldn't load some programs. When I started checking things out, I found over 1GB of programs and junk had been install. Opening IE resulted in a window that was about 6"x6" in the middle of the screen (17" monitor) surrounded by a...

    Gaming off the LAN? Feasibile?

    How would you get around the problem of having to have the game cd in the machine to be able to play the game? How do you do that with multiple single machines? Bozo :mrgrn:

    Gaming off the LAN? Feasibile?

    Actually, switching to 200GB, 7200rpm, SATA hard drives at each machine sounds like the logical thing to do. With their higher platter densities the time to load would be about the same as a 10000rpm drive. This would also leave room to expand. And, you wouldn't have to worry about the server...

    How to get rid of "about:blank" hijacking my sear

    The Missouri is in Hawaii. That's a little long even for those big guns. Maybe the New Jersey as I think it's in Oregan or Washington state. Ahhh.....nothing like the sight of a 2000lb projectile whistling though the air. Bozo :mrgrn:

    LSI Megaraid i4

    Don't know much about that RAID controller, but I would check out the software package that comes with it. The 3Ware controller monitoring software just plain sucks. To do a verify of the RAID array setup, you must schedule it. You just can't tell it to verify the drives. You can't test the...
