And we have our first failure! No warning or SMART notifications I assume? Any word from Intel?

I need to buy some tech gadgets for my relatives in Moscow, and they aren't up for the task. I could buy them here and ship them myself, but I suspect that there is a more cost-effective option. Does anyone know of an online computer store (like Newegg) that ships to Moscow?

Ah, Handy's link says $150. We'll see how it goes.

I have the title search results here, and that is the most straightforward document I've received yet. No issues there.

Thanks Pradeep. It is very much a six-figure thing, and I even know a real-estate attorney, but no one I know has had one present or suggested it, so I didn't even think about it.

$150 upgrade? I'll just do it.

Wasn't planning on it, actually.

This particular feature is something that would interest me, as it would improve the quality of my pictures. "Garbage clean up" is something I don't do at the moment, and if it were that easy, I would.

Or, in your case, the emoticon ;)

You have to go long, or the dupe detector catches it.

Ah...glad to have some inside info ;)

There is a space between, though increasing performance of 7.2k drives and decreasing cost of SSDs is putting the squeeze on more each day. I was considering using them for the low-requirement VMs and the more demanding file servers.

Pirating it, making sure it half as good as that, then buying a copy with the proceeds from my first sale using the program? That is how I did CS4, Photomatix, and PTGui.

After a few nights digging through and creating my own spreadsheet breaking out all the values in a more sensible way, it seems to all add up. Whoever thought that the way it was presented was useful should be shot. We'll be able to adapt to the payments; including tax, insurance, etc, it will...

Vaguely. As I'm sure you are aware, you are now entering 200-level TCP/IP stuff. It gets tough to visualize stuff. If you feel like it, try creating a Gliffy diagram that includes both computers, the router, and all the IP addresses. When you are accessing the share on the server from the...

That is the frustrating part; the brick isn't even their product! Sure, they chose to include it and (one hopes) are aware of the QC issues, but I've found that the QC of the product itself is much higher than the brick.

I have noticed more and more that cheap DC bricks are the weak link in small electronic devices. 50% of my Linksys router woes are because of this as well. I wish I knew of a decent manufacturer of quality replacements.

Trying to reconcile a GFE (Good Faith Estimate) with a Truth in Lending Disclosure Statement. They arrived in the same packet, and I know that they are about the same loan, but 99% of the numbers are not the same. I know that they are being calculated differently, and include or exclude slightly...

Now that shoes are commonly available, toenails are highly overrated. I've lost a few a couple times.

That is a Marvell controller (Marvell 88SS9174-BJP2 SATA-III)

They are one of the very few chip designers for SSD controllers, theirs are supposed to be the new hotness. IIRC, the Vertex LE was the only one out there last time I looked.

Yep, those. I don't have any yet, but if anything commonly available is close to an X25-E, it would be one of those.

I don't have a C300 or I would try it out.

I'm pretty sure the OCZ Z-Drive I have will beat it. Is there a particular test you would like to see?

I have the same problem. I'm pretty sure the Vertex and the X-25 aren't the best available, or the cheapest, but they do work as advertised so I'm just going to stick with them. From what I've read, the C300 is decent as well.

In Nepal it is legal to DUI; even falling down drunk. But if you get into an accident, it is considered your fault regardless of the circumstances.

There are certainly some pricey options out there. One of the reasons most pre-fab systems aren't ideal is that they are designed flat (to accommodate multiple viewers), while mine will be designed for one and will be wrapped around them to a certain degree. Anyone know how multiple...

You know that, and I know that, but I don't think they know that....

W.T.F. That is really incredible. If it is half as good as that, it is worth buying another copy of Photoshop.

I actually can see sports cars using it as their dash instrumentation. Didn't a Zonda use an iPad as their factory radio?

That is one good thing iP*ds are doing for the world.

I would guess it is part of the "File Server" role.

That and Hitler...hilarious.

That strikes me as awfully subjective; I've been holding laptops with my left arm for a long time. Older 17"ers were a bit much, but 6-pound laptops for the 35-minute BART ride from SF to Berkeley wasn't a big deal.

Has anyone here had a failed SSD yet? Besides, in this world of cheap storage, backups are plentiful.

I'm very tempted to hold off buying new displays until the whole 3D thing is resolved.

I'll be picking one up on Saturday. I'll let you know how it goes. No, not for me. And no, I don't have a choice in the matter. It is too expensive for what it does and I consider it's functionality broken. It will be replaced as soon as a replacement is available.

$4500 for 1TB at the moment. I'll wait until a reputable vendor carries it.

Mark this day. For the first time, LunarMist had a dirtier mind than I did!

I regularly travel in excess of 75mph on the country roads here at night. On at least a dozen occasions, farm equipment has been left unattended across the lanes, without lights or reflective tape. Haven't hit anything yet. People just don't pay attention. You don't need to stop, just slow down...

Oh, and since I don't see it in the thread yet, Welcome to StorageForum! ;)

Seconded. And why so many kids on the road at 4:30AM?

8-way RAID-0? DUDE! Not for sale anywhere ATM. Any declared MSRP? I'm all over that....

Congrats indeed to Merc, that is a hell of an accomplishment. The only other person I know who lost that much also had their leg amputated. I consider that cheating. I'm looking at getting one of these to help with the no soda thing.

Actually, you can't. After putting a certain amount through paypal transactions (IIRC $5k), they require bank acct information or they don't let you continue. Fuck that.

lol

Thank you SD and Uda, you are both the man on this one. I'll research/buy tomorrow.

I knew you had it covered, just teasing ;)

Sorry, out for dinner. Under $1700 would be good, under $900 would be awesome. I haven't tried the Expresscard adapters, though that is a good thought. Keep in mind though that I really want a supported configuration, which I believe requires a non-adaptered DB9 port.

Indeed. Think of all the data you can lose if it is stolen...
