My guess would be laptops aren't generally used for mass storage so anything over 2tb or so doesn't make sense. If you need more space, get an external drive or upgrade to a higher end laptop that can accommodate two drives. I only have a 120gb SSD in my laptop, just enough for the OS, some...
I now work seasonally on a farm I used to work full time on. During harvest (and yeah, "just harvest"), it was not uncommon for all of us to have a cooler full of beer in the cab with us (except for the truck driver because he was on the road, poor bastard haha). I've got a few stories I could...
HGST /thread
Seriously though, when I bought new HD's for my server, I wanted something that could be on 24/7 and a brand that I trusted with great reviews. I settled on HGST and haven't looked back since. I personally also like WD drives and I keep hearing good things about Toshiba drives...
Just wanted to throw this out there, got the keyboard in today and so far it seems like a very well built unit. Even though it's not "full RBG" in the sense that it has 16.8 million colors (it only has basic colors as in red, green, blue, white, etc) the colors represented in the keyboard are...

I've been eyeing for a mechanical RGB keyboard for a while and with good reviews both on Amazon and what I found on youtube, seems like a solid choice for an all-arounder so I...
Story of my frickin' life, I finally just yesterday sold a C2Q machine I've been casually selling for over a year now. That offset the cost of a dirt cheap FX8150 complete system I bought recently (for reasons) so I'm a happy camper; new tinker system plus some cash!!
Some UPS's and some PSU's don't play nice together, depending on the output format of the UPS when it's running on battery power. Doubtful that's your issue unless your PC runs on battery power a lot but I do seem to remember reading a lot about some Corsair PSU's on UPS's resulting in a slight...
I've had pre-sliced pepperoni in my fridge for longer than I'd care to admit and the only reason I eventually threw it out was because there was only a few slices left and we had a new pack. From my experience, when sealed/wrapped up right, it will last quite a while. Just remember, oxygen is...
I honestly don't know...I'd like to think if it came to it I could but then the thought of a loved member of my family (because that's what our pets are) looking back up at me with that sad face looking to me to make them better, to love them, to keep them safe...almost brings a tear to my eye...
Very odd that I'm running across this thread as I'm having a very similar issue with a somewhat older system I'm working on. Specs are an FX8150, 8gb RAM, and an AMD Radeon HD6870. My issue is with multiple fresh installs of both Windows 7 & Windows 10. Installs fine, boots first time or two...
Good thoughts but I don't believe it to be from some kind of backup/restore/restore point as I have that all totally disabled on my PC. As for failing updates, Windows has never TOLD me that it's failed an update and I have them set to manual so it shouldn't be doing any kind of background...
This can be look at one of two ways: first, can a Q6600 game at todays resolutions/settings? No, it's not going to be pushing 4k with max details. The second way you can look at it is can it game at more realistic settings; 720/1080 at medium settings with ample memory, video card, ssd, etc...
So my main rig's SSD keeps losing space and periodically I have to keep going into the directory below (C:\Windows\Temp) and deleting these random cab files that keep piling up? Anyone had this happen before or know why this is happening? It'd be great to keep the space eating files off my...
For those of you whom service rather than replace your UPS's, where do you buy your replacement batteries from? I found a post on here not too long ago listing a great place to get them at a good price but I cannot for the life of me find this place now. So where do you guys buy replacement...
Wife and I can go through a fifth of Fireball in a night (I may be a bigger part of that than her), maybe more on a weekend. Although with the new year and a few other things, we are going to be slowing it down to weekends only.
Yessir, passively cooled was a big plus for me on this build. As far as the SATA port is concerned, in that pic (until I got Windows up and going) I had left the two 4tb HGST drives unplugged since I wasn't sure about RAID migration in Windows 7, never done it prior to this. Once the system got...
Mainly because I could but eliminating fans also helps with noise. Then again, how much cooling capacity does a 35watt TDP CPU really need? The old server (must have been that single fan on the liquid cooler) was audible when the TV or something wasn't on but now it's damn near silent in the...
So my previous server was an i7 965EE with 12gb of DDR3 in an Asrock X58 Supercomputer motherboard. Storage (which will remain unchanged through the upgrade) was handled by 2 HGST 4tb drives in RAID1 for media and 2 WD 500gb in RAID1 for Documents, pictures, setup files, etc. This server was...
Do you have a copy of my system? I have the same CPU & motherboard hah Love my system and have seen no compelling reason to upgrade. With your OC (I'm "only" at 4.2ghz), I wouldn't think upgrading is worth it unless you have a specific task set that requires some new feature or whatnot. If cores...
Thank you sir, I think it will. I almost went for a refurb RX850i since it was about $30 less so I could have the Corsair link but refurb stuff can make me nervous from time to time...
Well guys, I was heavily leaning towards the Corsair RM750X but for another $10 including the cabling I need, I sprung for the on sale RM850X. I think it'll do the job nicely.
I get the nostalgia of it all but I'm working on a PC for a friend right now and he has a 320gb WD HD and I'm installing Windows 7 on it (because who really want's Windows 10 after all?). And this thing is nice and noisy. I miss SSD's already!
