    Were the ones in the stack on the floor in use? 70TB would be less drives I should think.

    That takes up a whole 5.25" bay. It is not a bad idea though if the case is large enough.

    No, I don't want a rack system. There would be no place for it to fit or to work on it.

    Least expensive SATA laptop that would allow a Vertex Turbo to work at full speed?

    Which Vortex drive is it exactly - a SandStorm?

    Least expensive SATA laptop that would allow a Vertex Turbo to work at full speed?

    I though maybe you were compiling a gazillion lines of code or running queries on a massive db all day. It doesn't seem like you need any special hardware beyond a discrete graphics card.

    Least expensive SATA laptop that would allow a Vertex Turbo to work at full speed?

    Any that have a current ICH and support SATA 3Gbs would be in that category. Wimpy CPUs and other factors can limit useful system performance before the ICH though. What is the notebook used for?

    So somebody is claiming that corn was never natural? :mrgrn: Of course it has DNA not so unlike other plants. Given the early usage for food, corn probably spread with humans and perhaps was hybridized long ago. Does it really matter other than as a curiosity?

    My current case is an old beige Antec that looks much like the one shown. The two aspects I was hoping to improve upon were the fans and hard drive placement. I figured that a single 120 mm rear fan is better and quieter than the 2x80 mm fan configuration. The...

    Then what happens whern folding in the summertime? A/C load will increase or the room will warm up if there is no A/C.

    LCD Woes

    I completely gave up on the software. :dunno: However, the hardware calibration works fine and the results are nearly perfect. Delta E over the entire display is the best I've seen on an LCD and a 16" B/W gradient in PS is perfectly smooth and neutral. :) I did tweak the y values for the...

    What I would like does not seem to exist or there are numerous complaints. Perhaps I am not thinking clearly or it is hopeless. :( I am searching for a larger mid-tower case that has four 5.25" bays, accommodates six internal 3.5" hard drives, and has some space here and there to squeeze in 3-4...

    Exactly. Flash is the most evil stuff. :twistd: When it is disabled many web sites are not very useable. :( I use Acrobat 9 Pro at work every day and it is better than some of the older versions. Sure there are free or cheap apps for basic PDF printer driver needs, but the real deal does so...

    Weird free space problem with 2TB drive

    I don't think so, at least not with Windows itself. The base 2 convention is not idiotic; it is perfectly natural for digital systems. OTOH, base 10 is an ancient holdover from the 5-fingered x 2-handed primates.
