Need a recommendation for a SCSI card...

I have six 10GB SCSI drives. They are all the newer style small connector (as opposed to the connector that looks like a wide IDE cable). I haven't messed with SCSI much but I think they are UW SCSI. Not certain though. I suppose I would like to have some RAID-5 action going on, but my...

How can I totally wipe out the data on my hard drive?

That will only remove the partition. Anyone with decent skills with partition table management can recover the partition and get to your data. Try a little program called "eraserd".

IDE RAID vs. 100Mb Ethernet...

My Boss seems to think that our "bottleneck" is in the fact that we are using an IDE RAID setup for our image server and NOT the fact that the data is being transported via 100Mb ethernet. What is the best way to explaine to him that IDE RAID is VERY MUCH not the bottleneck? I am trying to...

How does a gun silencer work?

In my experience it makes a gun a tad more accurate (Or at least more consistent) because you don't get the turbulence just behind the bullet as it exits the barrel (If the supressor is installed "deeply" on a ported barrel as they are supposed to be). velocity generally drops a bit but not...

Proper way to wave to other bikers

I usually just lift 2-3 fingers on the clutch hand. I ride a sport bike and most sportbike riders won't wave back. Harley riders do though. I guess it's the black leather boots and Camo vanson jacket I wear. I look more like a harley rider.

Aero 7+ (Jus thought I'd mention..)

That it works very well. After a full load for about 3 hours (F1-Challenge) the temps are about 3C less than at idle with the old HS/F. Granted the old HS/F was nothing spectacular... I have not lapped it yet (The old one was lapped) as I had to move the day after I got it but I will.
