Antec 550W

Yes and yes. I haven't done it myself to this drive, but I've never heard it not being the case.

That is an excellent point.

Nope, built from scratch at great expense.

I'm still waffling between a 5DII and a 7D. No money to do either, really.

Of course? 'Family values' is an assumption. Assumptions weaken communication. Weak communication destroys all relationships.

It is also fun to trip over the stupid steel bell-shaped dispensers in the floor.

Sold! Placing the order now. Thank you everyone for your help.

I absolutely could. Good find.

Looks like. It is certainly a last resort, but I do see the reason.

A 4" reach is great, but $150? Wow. Thanks, though. That is the best I've seen to date.

Do you choose stone as a unit of measure because the numbers are smaller? Or because fewer of us will know what it actually means? :p

The specs look great, and ASUS has a generally decent reputation for build quality, but it falls down with regard to service. Before you buy, just try to get a hold of their technical support. If you are happy with that experience, go for it.

I know that is what I did. If I was into photography at the time, it would have been better. When I was single it was far more fun than when I wasn't.

Welcome to StorageForum. If the BIOS won't detect the drive, you really are in trouble. Have you tried connecting it to another computer? As a secondary hard drive? Using an external enclosure perhaps? Worst-case, you can try swapping the circuit board from an identical drive, but I've only had...

I meant reconditioned. Reconditioned and working is considerably better than where you are now ;)

I can do all the pushups, situps, and chinups, but fuck running. That is for when you are being chased ;)

Right about now, actually. In the past, when I noticed I was out of shape (over 200lbs, I'm 6'2"), I would do something about it. It isn't looking good at the moment.

You can replace your 2001FP for <$200. Comparing the cost to repair a cheaper LCD with the new cost of a more expensive LCD seems a logic trap. Considering this mid-step, chancing a repair seems less wise.

I was recently informed that the Samsung 1.5TB drives are not on the "known good" list for Areca, and service is suffering slightly because of it. Just something to keep in mind...

The L1As were great, but they were never cheap, and quieter options are available now.

I'm afraid I don't have much experience with that stuff. Even if a single drive is enough, I'd recommend RAID-1 or -10 for a DAW, as it is considerably less jittery while streaming writes. When I was at Dolby Labs all the systems had a single HDD or RAID-1. Even if all you can source there is a...

I'm in need of something and can't believe I can't find it. I need a tool that can punch a hole in a piece of paper, much like an ordinary hand punch, but with one special requirement. I need to be able to punch single holes anywhere on a sheet of 8.5"x11" transparency with some accuracy. Hole...

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is a decent game with pretty graphics that my machine could just barely manage @ 1920x1080 maxed out. Game play was short, though, about 8 hours.

That is the most absurd statement to date. Apple forums come with padded walls.

S-Flex makes a whole line of fans at different speeds. No 54CFM fan is going to be quiet. Try the 800RPM ones.

Try this link.

It's OK, they make up for it with lots and lots of guns ;)

Sorry, there was supposed to be an "if" in there. Didn't mean it to be an accusation ;)

I didn't even have my camera up when I first saw him, and I knew he wouldn't stop anywhere within my view, so I actually started shooting before the camera was even up to my eye.

Perhaps something that wouldn't make me replace all my glass? :p A 7D?

Hold out for the 5970 4GB; the larger framebuffer helps @ 1920x1080 and higher.

I'll second both of the recommendations above. Scythe S-Flex are my favorite.

The new Command and Conquer is truly awful. I've never seen such bad graphics @ 1920x1080. Gameplay sucks as well. Its as if they thought that coding for base creation was too hard, so the don't let you anymore. Battlefield: Bad Company is good so far, played for about 4 hours.

My first visit isn't until 1600GMT most days, but I'm usually on until 0600GMT, which seems to be the "late shift" for most of our regulars.

That does indeed sound like a bad day. SilenX never had the best rep IMHO, and this drops it considerably.

Very cool, but I keep thinking that three screens is enough. This is what I am currently considering, driving 42" 1080P displays in normal (landscape) mode.

Nothing genetic, you count that as "everything".

I actually was really impressed with this one. (here is a video)

I'll add that to the list. I haven't had a halon (or whatever gas they switched to) since I was at CNet.

Had to Google that...

You did indeed time. I can't blame age yet, so I'll go with lack of sleep as my excuse tonight. ;)

Nice finds Uda. That MicroFridge company looks pretty good, though the one you linked to is barely "micro" (4 feet tall). This one (34") looks about right. Still tempting to go ballistic and commission something awesome, but I really don't have the time/money to spend on the project in order to...

I'm not old enough to have "back in my day" lines; but the TV we had when I was a kid had two channels, and one of them only came in if you were touching the antenna. Then I tried to "fix" it when I was 8 or 9, and we didn't have a TV at all for a couple years. ;)

It is a good week when I hear a song I haven't heard before and feel the need to turn it up. Almost all of them come from Pandora these days. The most recent hit? Beck Guerolito Wish Coin (Go It Alone - Remix By Diplo) Really interesting rhythms combined with fun...

The 50GB disks are fine, the new disks will require a new player, but are likely only to be for data; even 3D, 1080P, extended edition films will easily fit on a 50GB disk. Of course, the new players will be able to support all the current formats as well.

They are coming out with new high-density formats for BluRay. 50GB now, 100GB soon.

I just purchased an iPod Touch for someone as a replacement for their Palm.

I don't think the 50GB disks are any heavier ;)
