    Wow, I have some experience with this exact problem. There are some drives with 8k physical sectors, but these are normally specialty products sold to the enterprise market. The ones I have are the Micron 5100 Eco - a 3.84TB drive. Micron also offered a pro model, but only up to 2TB. The pro...

    Propane vehicle only runs on auxiliary tank

    Thanks for the tips guys. I've been doing a lot of reading into it. Propane vehicles don't have fuel pumps. They do have regulators.

    hey guys, thanks for all your advice so far. Sadly I am still not able to diagnose this issue. I ran another scan with vipre antivirus and malwarebytes anti-malware. Nothing came up. Is it possible there is some kind of rootkit or something nasty in there that the average virus scanner would...

    Are studio headphones worth getting for your iPhone?

    "studio" headphones are such a loose term. A speaker known as a "studio" monitor is designed to have a very "flat" response curve. What this means is that the speaker gives you a very clear, defined representation of all audio frequencies from the deep bass to the upper treble. These speakers...

    Should we delay the June 12th rollout of DTV?

    Just convert it already, if you're too much of a dipsh*t to buy a 20$ converter box then you will have to go without TV for a couple days. everybody is acting like its the end of the world if grandma can't watch jerry springer during the time it takes you go to to wal-mart and back.
