You just remove it from the carrier and put a normal PCI bracket on it. link

Yes, that's it. I bought cables from ebay pretty cheap. I bought the cards from a forum member at overclock.net ~$100 each with battery backup and they did not come with cables. I'm not sure if the cards from Dell come with cables or not. I'd guess not. I'm using XP x64.

I have Perc 5i's and Perc 6i's. I'd recommend the 6 over the 5 because it supports RAID-6.

A backup that's on a 13 drive RAID-5 array that's rebuilding isn't much of a backup. :p

Raid 5 doesn't have a drive that stores CRC / Parity data. The parity data is spread across all the drives. My RAID5/6 arrays on the Dell PERC cards built arrays with 6 or 8 1.5TB 5400RPM drives in less than 5 hours.

Murderer!

What's that mean? :???:

How much do you want for the 5D MK II? :D

You're doing it all wrong... Here's how you're supposed to do it:

I don't see the iPad selling like hotcakes, but I don't have your rose colored Steve Jobs loving glasses on either. So? The pie gets bigger.

I've used http://www.quadrangleproducts.com/ for custom cables before, though they weren't ethernet (much more complicated than that). I'd imagine they can make 'em for you. However, I'm sure they'll end up costing you a lot more than the 12" ones from Monoprice though.

I just ripped this just now with my LG GGC-H20L:

Congrats Mr. Fixture. :tgif:

That's how they got their start. OverClockerZone... OCZ. They sold processors that were guaranteed to run at a certain overclocked frequency.

They are both Indilinx based along with the Agility series as well I believe. It was my impression that the turbo drives are overclocked. :-?

Yes, the Vertex and the other Indilinx based drives are considered good along with the Intel based drives. I'm not very knowledgeable about the newer drives.

Good SSD's don't have those issues under XP even if they're not aligned.

That or communicate... You know tell him your downloading the shows so he doesn't try to watch them on Hulu. Or, you could get a router with QoS. :p

It sounds like you need to pick your roommate more carefully.

I don't get the whole Lite thing, but I'm sure some marketing genius thinks they can sell 'em.

I was just thinking the same thing. :errr:

His posts are still more understandable than yours, so don't get too high on your horse.

Your Adobe applications will certainly not be happy.

I love the Catalyst 12's. They're a little too rich for my blood at $3500 each. Thankfully Mark is coming out with a somewhat more budget friendly scaled down version that I will be using for the front 3 speakers in my HT.

Yeah, well here in the US we'd rather put all our eggs in one somewhat ineffective basket. :rofl:

Not really... They do update the panel at 120Hz. That allows you to display 24Hz film based content without having the 3:2 judder pattern (if you disable the fancy processing), or you can use the motion interpolation processing to reduce motion blur.

Have you been to an airport lately? What security? They're all trying to keep people out. Once you're in you basically have free reign of the place.

They do not flash the same image twice. They have a fancy image processor that creates new and unique intermediate frames that would fall between the frames it receives via the inputs.

It can't accept a 120Hz signal so it will never work.

Nice... Maybe I can get me a fake i9!

It sounds like the GGW-H20L wasn't performing as well as it should have either. It's rated the same as the GGC-H20L and you seem to be getting slower rips than I do.

Odd, my LG GGC-H20L will rip a ~40GB BD in just over 50 minutes in my usage. It's rated 6x on SL BD and 4.8x on DL BD. The LG UH10LS20 is rated 10x on SL BD and 8x on DL BD, so it should definitely be faster than what I'm getting with the LG GGC-H20L.

Not sure what to tell you. There aren't any reviews of it that I've seen. How big is A&D and how long does it take to rip?

I've ripped multiple discs to the same RAID array over my network at the same time. I don't know if the files ended up fragmented or not. Frankly, I don't really care.

There's also that Lenovo one. link I'm using the Logitech PS3 Mediaboard Pro with my HTPC (Bluetooth).

I think the issue was only with certain drives. Samsung in particular.

Can you please point out the Apple netbook you're suggesting him to buy?

But how do you know the core is fully functional? Unless they give you some sort of utility that can test every aspect of the core, you might get a surprise when you start pushing the chip hard in some sort of rendering or mass computational task when it starts returning bad data.

This is also my advice.

In my experience sellers on Amazon's marketplace tend to be very accommodating. I'm not entirely sure why that is. It's probably because Amazon will refund your money if they don't, and I'm sure they get slapped over it. I've bought a fair quantity of CDs through the marketplace and gotten...

Yeah, I got played for sucker along with a lot of other people. :crap:

Here's why I made that suggestion previously. :eekers:

Did you get a refund on the fake ones?

I suppose I should point out that I wouldn't build another watercooled PC, and I eventually converted the P4 rig back to air cooling after it was no longer my primary workstation.

You've got to be the first person I've ever seen complain that monoprice is too expensive. :eek3:

I did it once for my 2.4gHz P4 OC'd to 3.0 (later replaced by a 3.06gHz HT P4) because the coolers of the day were all super noisy.

Yeah, I've been a cheerleader of it for a while now.

Secure mode is explained in excruciating detail here. Apparently it reads every sector at least twice. If you want an accurate rip IMHO, Secure Mode + Test & Copy is the only way to go. Since I don't want to ever re-rip my CDs I make sure it's done correctly the first time even though it...

I found speed when ripping CDs to be completely arbitrary if you use EAC's secure mode. Even an old Lite-on 52x CD-ROM drive isn't very fast. I do a test & rip in EAC, so that takes longer, but it averages less than 4x for the whole disc. My Samsung DVD burner is about the same. My LG...

Uh... There's one from Arcsoft. Arcsoft TotalMedia Theater 3.
