    SMC 8505T GIGe switch

    Looks great. That should cause no issues at all. The RPM is close enough that it shouldn't trigger an alarm.

    SMC 8505T GIGe switch

    Can't tell you yet, my switch is still in the mail :D I wonder how good the Gig-E NICs on the A7N8X Deluxe are, anyway. IIRC they are on the PCI bus as well.

    In search of a super-firewall

    OK, thanks for all the advice so far. I'm looking into a Sonicwall Pro 100. That'll do #1, #2, #4 The Gig-E managed switch will be able to handle #5 Now all I need is #3. Ideally, I'd like an appliance with a service (for it's ease of use). But if there is a free way to get the same results...

    Insomnia sucks. Especially when you run out of alcohol. What to do when no-one is posting to SR or SF? 1. Refresh the forums as fast as your web connection (and Firefox) can handle it. 2. Read a slashdot thread in the gaming section on "-1" Damn, I'm not even creative enough to think up...

    SMC 8505T GIGe switch

    Well, I'd reccomend putting quieter fans in it rather than disconnecting half of them. Once you have the chasis open, you should be able to identify the fans that are there now. With that info, you can find a quieter one with somewhere close to the same airflow. Just be careful, it may have a...

    [NEWS] 10K "Enterprise" 2.5" Seagate SCSI Dri

    Just what I thought. But laptops of this caliber shouldn't even come with batteries. That space would be better spent trying to cool this beast. Most people who require this kind of horsepower have an outlet handy anyway (conference rooms, movie/TV sets, aircraft). And for those who need a...

    [NEWS] Hard drives: 600GB by 2007

    I know many, many users who buy PCs based on their spec; having no basis for their own needs at all. A new client recently bought a 3GHz P4 with 1GB RAM and a 160GB HDD for their small business (2 employees). They'd been watching the market for a few weeks and saw "a good deal" for ~$1800...

    In search of a super-firewall

    Thanks, the SME530 looks interesting. I've seen boxes that do e-mail filtering like a firewall. It is attached in series with your normal firewall and filters all the mail stuff I want (passing through the rest). I can't remember the name, and it only did mail, but it sounded very interesting.

    Splash: What are you using for new systems at work?

    Putting a G550 in a server seems like...oh, I don't know....massive overkill! Besides the unnecissary power consumption, it's a pretty big waste of cash... If your GF doesn't want it, I might be able to take it off your hands ;)

    64-Bit WinXP Beta Available to General Public

    The only difference I'd expect is less stability. I have no doubt that it is the path of the future and allows for more powerfull systems; but right now all I'd expect is less mature code.

    Re: FINALLY TOOK THE JUMP!! I use a Xerox multifunction that can scan @ ~ 40ppm (just a guess) and send them to your inbox. It's a pretty happy thing if you want to get the equivalent of a book into PDF before lunch.

    All the stoplights here have been LCD for quite some time. As soon as they get LCDs bright enough, I'm sure they'll replace the street lights as well.
