I know Maxtor has had the same policy for years; Refurbished drives get 90 days regardless of the length of the original warrentee. I don't keep up of warrentee policies, in general, but I was burned by that particular policy a few years ago by Maxtor.

AMD needs to improve performance: Alot. I expected it to overwhelm and the reviews it is getting are showing mixed results. Further they have the same marketing problem other AMD processors have (Bad MHz with good IPC's). Then there is the expense: They are too expensive which may be...

Sorry, That should habe been trial not trail

I also contacted several businesses for donations but was politely refused. From the "not on the record" discussions, it appears that they are afraid that anyone that looks and talks differently might be a Terrorist. They are deathly afraid of what the Govt. might to if they donated to a...

Think brain tumor near the speach center. The next stage will be personallity changes followed shortly by death. I've been doing a public collection but so far all I've been able to collect are 25 out of 500 coupons needed for a free visit to a local speach therapest (In Salem). I contacted...

Not I

Rather than playing games and tying up the machine to prevent legitimate work from interfering with your desire to use the machine, may I suggest that when your machine is being occupied by this inconvienience, simply change its priority, so that it does not inteterfere with your purposes and...

It is simply a first-person-shooter. It's main benefit compared to others is good internet play with voice communication. That creates the opportunity for people to become social and form communities of players. The big problem with the game is the number of immature "Kiddies" and hackers...

Ram stability issues can actually have virtually any symptom possible because just about everything goes through ram. With that said, it will normally show up as blue screens or application errors but occasionally it shows up as file system/drive corruption instead. Try running memtest86 for...

I've been playing at Kort I rather gave up on CSReloaded - No one was ever on their server. Though I did play some at CSReloaded today (there were two people on the server)

Merc, That is a IRS definition: Microsoft's def. is considerably looser and consists of you filling out a web-based form saying you are one.

My linksys is a plastic one. Pradeep, No you have it slightly wrong: but that is because I didn't give you more info. Subwoofer on top, next is linksys router, followed by intel switch, and underneath all is a Cybex KVM on top of my desk. The subwoofer is needed to keep everything in place...

The forums are dog-tired today. It won't budge regardless of the threats used against it.

I have a Linksys BEFSR11 and it is room temp (no warmth that I can detect). It is sitting on an Intel 8 port switch (slightly warm) and a sub-woofer is on top of the Linksys. Merc - You are using a Cisco router: What do you expect but dual power supplies for redundancy. Oh, I alsmost forgot...

Get yourself a router/firewall: You need the firewall protection if you are using a cable modem - The router comes free.

The next question - What does ithis version of Linux do special that is worth all this trouble to install?

StorageForum was created as a place to go after StorageReview was about to close-up shop a little over a year ago. At no point did we share user-data with SR. My assumption is that you were invited, or found out about us, in the beginning, created an account, and then forgot sometime later. I...

You are welcome and Enjoy.

Have you installed WINS?

The GW address is used when the server can't get through. Thus setting the GW to the other card would mean the server would send the down cards packets to the other card. That card would then send the data down the line to the switch/router. The failure mode is easily testable. With the GW...

They make cards to remote start servers

I'll ask the really dumb question - Why can't you make each the others default gateway. thereby, if the message fails to get through it will be sent via the other network card. If the network cards are attached to a router or switch then they will take care of the details of getting the...

The transcript has appeared [url=http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2003/s819900.htm] While still unacceptable behavior, it isn't quite as unacceptable in that the jeeps were being pelted by throwing rocks before any action by the Israelies. It still would have been much better judgement to...

I like the site: Much easier to get around in than the normal news organization (CNN, ABC, NBC, ...). I checked all the stories from 3/27 (two days before your first post) to current and it's not there yet, but I will continue looking.

Tannin, Sorry but I did a quick and dirty web search and disn't find legitimate references to your incident: I didn't try to be particularly complete, so I could easily misses something. I've seen nothing about it on the news. Without independant verification I'm stuck a dis-believer. I...

Yes, I ment even. An elimination of 16-17 machines should definately drop the teams folding capacity. Tis a shame, but who knows what will happen in the future.

I've been watching the news and have heard nothing relating to this incident. I would think that even with the war, that something like this would be making a very big stink world wide. The incident is so outregous that I rather need independant verification: Otherwise, I have a basic problem...

Incase no one is paying attention out folding has dropped like a rock recently. Any explanations? If Cliptin is less than 1000/week.

1:52am Forums are fast

10:45 Pacific - Slow

I don't think it is particularly time sensative. It appears at any time.

Past few days, the forums seem out right slow. Is there a cause?

The current theme is better than the old one! Thanks

Which drives would you pick if 2TB were needed ? 15ms access, 40MB/s STR, 8x250GB, $2400 30ms access, 40MB/s STR, 4x500GB, $2400 15ms access, 20MB/s STR, 4x500GB, $2400 15ms access, 40MB/s STR, 4x500GB, $4800 30ms access, 40MB/s STR, 2x1000GB, $2400 15ms access, 20MB/s STR...

Yes, I would actually like the poll edited. On the other hand, since it was misleading it might be better to start it fresh and allow people to re-vote. It is also not a big deal - I was just curious and thus it interest level here is no longer signifigent so that it should die. Opinions?

Merc, I don't think you can make the automatic assumption that reliability and warrentee's are proportional. If that were the case Hyundai's and Kia's (10 Year, 100,000 mile warrentee's) make cars that last 3x longer, and have less problems than Toyota's and Honda's (3 Year, 36,000 mile...

Perhaps people are being confused, the prices were intended to be per drive. Thus the 8x250@$300 = $2400 just like the 2@1000GB@$1200 = $2400.

Tea, The question actually has little to do with size - All the sizes are the same. The question is what drive trade-offs matter the most to people Access speed, Data Streaming, Cost, or Reliability. I find it interesting that in this poll reliability is horibily loosing to the other...

Dynamic disks have nothing to do with fragmentation. You could easily have a portion of a file at the start and end of a disk and with extended partitions, you could have a part on the first disk as well as then last disk. With extended partitioning you could theoretically get raid-0 like...

I didn't include the number of drives in the survey. The 250GB should be 8x250GB All 500GB should be 4x500GB All 1000GB should be 2x1000GB and the 2000GB should be 1x2000GB

For a massive non-raid, single volume storage solution. Which is the most important criteria Price, Speed, size, safety? Do note that multiple drives are using W2k's Extended partitions to make a single partition. If one drive fails then all data is lost.

I have to admit, I was surprised by this one. I think Cisco got a massive bargin at $500M. I wonder what effect Cisco will have on Linksys. I think Linksys products are generally good quality and at even a better price. Perfect for the consumer market. I hope Cisco does not increase the...

I ran into this on another forum by Slightcrazed (You may know him from old SR) and I thought it was cute so I am copying it here. News Flash - Bush agrees to more inspectors (AP) Dateline: Washington DC, Wednesday, March 19, 2003 11:30 AM President George Bush has made an announcement that...

Liam, you have a good point but shooting them is too good for those that confuse for a living. I think they should all be condemed to a purgutory where their sole objective is simply to best Microsoft in the art of the deal: They don't get to move on till they succeed.
