    Seagate Barracuda 3TB "deactivated" at Newegg ?

    Elixer, Thanks for the link (I missed that story), but according to the Newegg rep, it is not on backorder, i.e. Newegg does not expect to restock this item, period.

    Seagate Barracuda 3TB "deactivated" at Newegg ?

    Newegg has the (relatively new) Seagate Barracuda XT 3TB hdd (Seagate part# ST33000651AS) listed as "deactivated", and its customer service tells me today that Newegg is not expecting further shipments. Yet, Seagate's customer service tells me this /is/ the current model (it has not been...

    please help with sdram choice

    Thank you all for your help. Emulex -- thank you especially; most of the modules that have better timings that Crucial's are 1.9 v, and the Intel guide says it runs only at 1.8 v.

    *DEAD* Intel NAS Server w/ Intel Celeron 420 1.6GHz, DDR2 & eSATA - $135

    Regarding the two Intel models, I wrote to Intel today, and received this reply: SS4200-E comes with a Disk on Module (DOM) that also includes the EMC software. SS4200-EHW does not have DOM; instead you need to install WHS or other software.

    *DEAD* Intel NAS Server w/ Intel Celeron 420 1.6GHz, DDR2 & eSATA - $135

    Two (perhaps dumb) questions, please; my interest is in loading either Linux (Puppy or DSL) or perhaps OSX: 1. is there room to install a small sata or ide SSD on the motherboard? (Or, is it possible to replace the DOM with a larger capacity)? 2. what is the difference between the ss4200-e...

    Changing location of sub-folders inside home folder

    <bump> I'd love to solve the same problem, so I'll just keep this thread alive, in hopes someone can help. umrigar: that is a very useful link, but the NetInfo Manager tool has been dropped form 10.5 Leopard, and a Google search doesn't turn up a solution.

    *** Official ASUS P5B / P5B Deluxe Thread ***

    Newegg's & Asus' description are a bit misleading; the specs on Asus website here http://www.asus.com/products4.aspx?modelmenu=2&model=1179&l1=3&l2=11&l3=307 list "2 x PCI-E x16 (blue @ x16 mode, black @ x2 or x4 mode)" So, you don't have two slots that are x16, or even x8, at all...

    P965 "limitations" ?

    bc & husky55: I called Intel's pre-sales tech support just now, and was told emphatically that the 965 chipset DOES support 1GB 800 MHz DIMMS; so, as noted on Intel's motherboard pages here http://www.intel.com/design/motherbd/lt/lt_available.htm the max RAM on 965 mobos is 4GB (at 800...

    P965 "limitations" ?

    bc, can you provide a url for the datasheet you cite ? I don't see any mention of no supporting 1gb dimm's on the Intel chipset comparison page here: http://indigo.intel.com/compare_cpu/sho...22754,999999&familyID=10&culture=en-US

    Intel 975x chipset: PCIe 2x8 or 2x16 ?

    Intel states that the 975x chipset http://www.intel.com/products/chipsets/975x/index.htm offers "2 PCI Express controllers in the MCH enable either 1 x 16 or 2 x 8 operation for the 16 PCI Express lanes." However, the new Asus P5W DH Deluxe...

    Intel Releases conroe ahead of schedule

    ncage, I may be going blind, but......this article says Woodcrest (the server cpu) will be released in June, and that Conroe will be released on July 23. That isn't "ahead of schedule", it is the schedule Intel announced many months ago.

    Mac OS X 10.4.1 Tiger x86 on an intel machine?

    If AMD waits too long to drop prices, I will go with Intel

    If you look at the announced prices for Conroe, and the percentage performance gain, AMD would have to cut prices by 30-50% to be competitive (i.e. to offer the same performance per dollar). Perhaps AMD simply and literally cannot afford such a large percent drop in revenue. My guess is...

    Build a AMD X2 3800+ based system now or wait until Conroe?

    I build a new pc about the same frequency as you mentioned (every 3-4 years), and face the same decision. My 2 cents (2 pence?) is: wait a few months (Sept?) until the new Conroe chips and mobos are out and have been tested. If you need a new pc "now", why not build a budget box: use your...

    Coming soon: Asus N4L-VM DH + Core Duo 1.83ghz

    Stevty, Why did you select the Core Duo over the same cost (but faster?) Presler, such as the D 920? (I ask only to learn, there is no criticism implied; I do not know much at all about the Core Duo CPUs.)

    Which memory for a Pentium D 805 ?

    The Pentium D 805 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819116001 and an Asus P5VDC-MX mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131587 seem to be a good pairing for a budget office pc (not overclocked). I would like to use 1gb of memory, 2x512...

    NVIDIA kills ULi chipset's SLI support

    homebuilt NAS (for backup): HW recomendations?

    Matthias, Your point is well taken that hardware problems can trash your data....but what alternative is there for backups? Realistically, if you need to backup 200G of data, where are you going to do it? On DVDs?? The time spent per day doing the backup is not practical. If you have a...

    homebuilt NAS (for backup): HW recomendations?

    Knavish, Thanks for your comments. Re Linux, I understand that DSL and Puppy are easy to configure as servers, and will run quite well on Celeron or Sempron cpu's. I am puzzled, though, by your recommendation of Raid5. Why? The server exists to backup PCs, so I don't see the need for...

    homebuilt NAS (for backup): HW recomendations?

    After reading discussions here about the "professional" (no-name hardware) NAS units being sold, I don't quite understand why it isn't better to build your own. I would like to backup three PCs to a server, to keep the backup physically separate from the originals. I will probably use 2-4...

    emergency hdd recovery problem

    Deathwalker, is possible that the registry is screwed up, and a simple install/REPAIR would work? I'm a bit puzzled that linux (qtparted) can read the hdd but windows won't even boot with it attached. (Many thanks for your help!). If I can't fix this today, I will go and buy an external case...

    When might AMD cut prices on 939 cpu's ?

    Greenman, Well, let me rephrase the point: If the cost of CPU+mobo+dram is comparable of socket AM2 v socket 939, no one in his right mind will choose the older socket. So, presumably one (or all?) of those components will come down in price. I assume it would be the CPU, since it's the most...

    When might AMD cut prices on 939 cpu's ?

    Furen, I've senn that on a lot of websites, but the original source is a website that, I believe, is written in French then translated. It does not make sense for AMD to raise any prices in early April when Intel is reported to have scheduled price cuts for the end of April.
