Sure but it is a major pain to reset everything. You need to get out the paper and pen.

Does that work for the old 50nm SSDs? On the X25-E it does not report much nor optimize the drive.

The concerns turned out to be unfounded. Although the message indicated that the reactivation was necessary because the hardware changed, the wizard led to the internet activation and reactivated it with no problem. 8-)

The 64GB C300? I'm not sure that you need to do much except make sure that is works. Maybe check the sustained reads to be sure that your SATA 3 speeds are up to snuff and check SMART once in a while.

Are the hard drives qualifed for RIAD use?

Maybe so if backup/redundancy is not needed. I'm putting two of the 1TB drives in my lightweight 12 incher.

Sure, and some have the combined USB power port, but USB 3.0 is the future.

Very interesting, I did not know that half of the socket was compatible with micro USB. I have checked that a micro USB plug will fit, but the only one I have is for a charger. Has anyone tried a micro USB cable and found it to work?

That should be a good, fast drive with the Samsung 640GB-7200 inside. :)

I've been using a pair of external 2.5" 12.5mm external WD 1TB drives since 1Q. The extra height/weight is barely noticeable and not an issue. The transfer rate seems just fine to me on USB 3.0, though I suppose that may slow with smaller files. I do have a 640GB 7200RPM Samsung drive from...

I received the one through an alternate supplier and there are two others on the way. Interesting drives and typical Samsung characterstics. 1TB was never so small. :) And DD where are your 1TB 2.5"x 9.5mm SSDs? :)

It is really awful. An order placed on Wednesday would normally be here on Friday 8-JUL via 2-day fedex or UPS shipping. Now I had it shipped 3-day UPS/Fedex so it arrives on Monday, but I cannot receive it. I will have to wait until the following Saturday 16-JUL to pick up the package. :mad:

Port multipliers.

I'm sure it was perfectly moral and right at some time 5-10 thousand years ago, just as people from then would find many of our customs today deplorable.

I see no point compared to having the SSD boot drive.

WTF is the Egg doing? There is no Fedex or UPS 2nd day or overnight shipping anymore. There is only 3-day shipping or some other BS shipping method. That is f*cked up. :tdown:

What is that SLC memory for and where does it fit on the board? I expect to use the M4 on the 6GBps port; that's all.

But why do that? Obviously I must be dense. :confused:

Still in progress is the operative word. ;) How much noise does it generate? Where do you print images?

It is unlikely that I will make it to sixty at this point.

Yes, 2011 is the last year. I think they are still being made or new production recently stopped. I'm not sure if the earthquake affected anything.

That is part of the problem. I like my 1080 too, but the literally nauseating 3D, exaggerated special effects, and physics-defying nonsense is not a substitute for a great story, screenwriting, directing and acting.

Movies in recent years are almost all crap. Then we get 2 or 3 sequels, prequels or other 'quels. Hardly anything is original or for adults with decent IQs. It sucks. :tdown:

I thought Casey was a dude. But yeah, I care not a whit unless the person did something important. Until relatively recently killing offspring was a traditional activity in many cultures in times of limited resources or when the offspring were considered defective by their standards. A lot of...

No url bar? How do you go anywhere?

The board was only $80, so not bad.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Ok, I will try this NIC. The other option would be to buy a GbE switch, but that is messy. Maybe I can find something like this locally for the extra USB ports. What do you think?

The drives are still backordered. Will this become a joke like the Quantum Atlas 10K II?

That is useless when the virus/malware bypasses the AV software.

What does safe searching mean - no pr0n? :spiderman:

The old board is a Gigabyte G45-something that does the same. I just put a 1x SIL3132-based card in the first slot and it booted with display, but cannot find the driver for the card. I assume that means it is OK to use other cards in that slot.

Are there any PCIe 1x combined USB 2.0/ethernet cards? I need to replace that type of PCI card with a PCIe one and I'd rather not use two cards.

I'm still using Avast. There are no ads and it is configurable enough to scan only what I want.

I knew it was the monitor. :)

Usually they do, but on one µATX board I had the first slot was only usable for video, and that was the only 8/16 slot. Perhaps that was unusual, but I'm not very familiar with not using a video card. BTW, does the video for the 2500K play a BR disc? I'm wondering about getting a BR/DVD-RW.

Well it is a Samsung, so no surprise there.

Are all of the PCIe slots usable for anything, or is the first one only designated for the video cards?

I thought that was only for retail discs.

The 2500K is pretty good at the standard turbonic boost of 3.7GHz. :) The 980X is ~35%faster on DPP at 4.3GHz, but of course it has the hexagonal cores not to mention being ~5 times the price 10 months ago. The 2500K would convert files at about the same rate if it were at 5.0GHz. PTGUI is...

Yes it runs, but requires reactivation due to "hardware changes." I don't have any more XPP 32 OEM discs. :(

And it is so cheap, too. I suspect that with a large HSF it would be equal or better than my 4.3GHz hexagonal-cored 980X system at some things. The main problem is that everything will have be reinstalled/repurchased. That is more costly and time consuming than the hardware update. :(

Well, maybe more like a 2009 Honda civic. ;)

I assumed it was integrated video, too.

The system has a Wolfberg something or other CPU running 3.50G (mild O/C), with a 40GB StormForce SSD for OS/apps and some often-changed files, 300GB VelociRaptor drive for primary data, and 1.5TB 72000 RPM drive for bulk storage, with an internal (removable bay) 2TB 5400 Samsnug drive backing...

Did you try another monitor?

The memory was only used for a while when I was building the 980X system so there is no reason it would not work now. Of course I can buy more, but I wanted to make sure that the CPU/board work well first. The old system is plenty quiet in this ATX case with the two 120mm fans on low. I...

I actually found 2x2GB DDR3 1600 in a drawer, so I will start with that. I will be using the internal video if that is what you mean by the HD3000. I wil O/C a little if it is feasible with the stock fan, but it may not be so necessary if the CPUs are good as people claim. It will be...

I'll have to use have to use WD, that's all.
