  1. WD MyBook 4TB MFG REFURB $55.96 ea. (qty. 4+) FS from WD on ebay

    OK this 4 TB is back in stock, and the $10-off discount applies once you add to cart and go to checkout you see the discount. I'm just about to pull the trigger on one, but can anyone comment on whether the WD My Book 4TB will be able to spin down itself, like when you plug it into the USB port...
  2. WD MyCloud 2TB/6TB (Gigabit NAS) MFG REFURB $64.99/$169.99 from WD on ebay (Extra 20% off 3+ Items)

    I for one appreciate your posts, these are very tempting and we can always use more storage...
  3. WD EasyStore 10TB desktop external HDD (NEW!) $199.99 from BestBuy on ebay

    Interesting. What are your thoughts of getting one of these types of stand-alone NAS devices, like this Asustor, compared to re-purposing a spare desktop running Windows 10 (which would otherwise sit unused in a closet)?
  4. WD MyBook 4TB MFG REFURB $55.96 ea. (qty. 4+) FS from WD on ebay

    Oh thanks for the analysis/write up! Interesting how the system connected to the enclosure can trigger power-off of the enclosure via the USB interface, such as when the system goes to sleep or puts the USB interfaces to sleep. Quick question about the opposite: is the drive itself able to...
  5. [OOS] WD MyBook 2TB (looks like EasyStore case) MFG REFURB $39.99 from WD on ebay (Save $10 on every $50)

    Any idea what the internals of the drive enclosure is like? I'm wondering if it uses a standard SATA interface inside, or if there would be any way to open up the enclosure and remove and/or replace the existing drive?
  6. 32" 2k monitor 249

    How would non-members of Costco approach this? Is there a trial membership you could test out or start right now, which would last long enough to let you qualify for making purchases as a member at Costco later on when the monitors go on sale?
  7. What could be the reason for router disconnects under heavy load? (Overheating?)

    Usually I'd say you have identified how to test for temperature by using a fan, but it sounds like the speed situation is preventing you from seeing if the fan prevents overheating. So, what about the opposite kind of heat test? Try to overheat it by turning off the fan and see if the problem...
  8. Phantom Dust Remastered Is Free, Releases Tomorrow (5/16)

    Anyone have the download link? I didn't see it on the twitter link in OP, but I may have missed it...
  9. 16:10 vs 16:9 No Doubt About It

    Has OP identified the screen sizes here, what was the 16:10 size/pixel dimensions, and what was the 16:9? I have to say, I have an opposite conclusion than OP. I went from 24" 1920x1200 as my main monitor, to a 32" 2560x1440. Note that the pixel density is almost identical between the two...
  10. advantages of have duel monitors

    It's a bit silly not to at least try it yourself to see. Your computer won't explode or burn up if you try it, there isn't really any risk, so do it! I think most people who try dual monitors end up liking it. Also, you can use the quick shortcut win+p to easily enable or disable the second...
  11. Historian GURUS Needed: Power draw comparison 5830 v. 4850

    Before you decide, you might want to check the market prices in your area (or eBay) to see if this is worth the hassle. You might need to expend more of your time/effort than you could recoup by selling either card. One option might be to offer it for free on craigslist, so that you gain a...
  12. Miners are a cancer to the PC gaming and the GPU market

    Same with shoes, some people buy so many shoes, they are terrible people! And cars, you should have no more than one car per household, think of all the harm to parking! And don't get me started on pets, I can't believe people think you can own more than one pet at a time! [note that this is...
  13. Will AMD ever fix their driver overhead?

    I'm still confused here. I read the first post, and it sets up the problem as being, if you turn your visual settings down to minimum, something bad happens with AMD cards, and something good happens with NVidia cards? What? Can someone explain a bit more in simplistic terms, what is the...
  14. Heavy disk activity repoerted by Win10 slowing down system

    Just wanted to note something helpful about resource monitor under disk: you can sort by different columns. If you click on the column labeled "Total (B/sec)" then your system will sort the activities (either ascending or descending, if you click multiple times). Anyway, sort the disk...
  15. AMD Drivers / 7970 / Windows 10 Troubles - Freeze at Startup

    Just wanted to chime in that I too have issues with AMD video cards (7950) when I enable the integrated Intel graphics. Specifically, I lose the ability to have three monitors simultaneously on a 7950, whether expanded desktop or eyefinity. Windows prevents you from enabling the third monitor...
  16. Question About Crossfiring My Old Computer

    I just wanted to chime in and point out the error in the two sources you quoted on the previous page. Those authors were misinformed or didn't realize they were making misleading statements regarding memory in crossfire. If anything, I think buying the 6950 1GB would be a fun distraction for a...
  17. Problems with AMD Crimson drivers, when AMD card is non-primary GPU?

    I wanted to chime in with a problem like yours. I have 7950s in my machine, but when I enabled the iGPU on my 4970K and installed the intel video card drivers, the AMD drivers would no longer allow me to run eyefinity and refused to recognize three monitors simultaneously. So it's not the same...
  18. Partitioning a SSD

    Point of clarification request: if you have a partition for OS+system, and a partition for games+apps, what would happen if you only back up the OS+system partition and then restore it? Won't that partition try to refer back to all the missing games+apps and so be kinda messed up? I just think...
  19. 802.11ad (4.6Gbit/sec) wifi is here!

    To be fair, that avlex paper, does it address beam-steering? I think with beam-steering you get different results than what the paper concluded?
  20. Bricked my 290x.... any hope?

    What I mean is are there any other situations where something like this has happened, so maybe there are other example solutions for this situation? Either due to driver update or AB settings (or combination, anything)? I'm suspecting it's just coincidence and the card failed due to just...
  21. Bricked my 290x.... any hope?

    Are there any other instances of a software driver update, or Afterburner settings, being able to brick a video card? If it doesn't even work in BIOS, it seems the software is not at issue, and you are dealing with a bricked card. Any chance you have another computer you could put the car...
  22. SSD Evo 850 and Windows 10

    What is your worry regarding lifetime of the SSD? I think there is merit to various strategies, but only in the sense that they are strategies to accomplish reduced wear. but my issue is those strategies are obsolete because there doesn't seem to be any reason to be concerned about SSD lifetimes.
  23. Help with understanding M.2 and PCIe support

    I've heard the PCIe-based SSDs are really fast, but this seems like some kind of combination expansion card plus M.2 interface thing, so does the combination create additional slowdowns at all? I'm just wondering if this combo would actually be slower than using a M.2 SSD directly? I think...
  24. Be careful ordering CPUs from Amazon

    The silkscreened text seems overly dark/intense, but I guess that's because it's a totally fake sticker and not actually imprinted directly onto the metal IHS.
  25. Best way to ship a CPU?

    A laptop CPU I bought off eBay was shipped to me wrapped in a sheet of soft flexible foam. The sheet is just thicker than the pins of the CPU, which were sunken/embedded into the foam. It felt like a safe way to isolate everything. That was then inserted into an anti-static bag, which was put...
  26. 7950 Reference Card Not detected?

    It's likely those pads are left blank on purpose, because it's a 7950 card instead of the full-fledged 7970, and doesn't need the extra circuitry. Do you have a picture of the other side? If you see no signs of catastrophic failure, like scorch marks where capacitors or resistors have been...
  27. Be careful ordering CPUs from Amazon

    This situation is perfect for taking a picture to share, at least I would take several pictures just to share with my friends... do you have any pictures showing the sticker etc.?
  28. Health effects of AC routers and N routers (2.4ghz vs 5ghz).

    I thought the power level was irrelevant. The frequency can't ionize, so increasing the power wouldn't do anything would it? The wireless routers limit the power output to avoid interfering with everyone else - sets a finite limit where the neighborhood won't be saturated.
  29. Direct to modem gets me 100Mbps down, with router it is 60

    maybe the powerline is traversing a difficult/convoluted electrical path between different circuits, if you have multiple circuit boxes or some weird electrical setup that isolates one part of the house from the other. maybe you can try different wall outlets just to see if it improves.
  30. When Vapor Chambers Fail

    What is a "failure" of a vapor chamber? I thought it would be a breach of the chamber. If that happened, the chamber would not be able to swell up like this. In fact, I would guess that you need the vapor chamber to remain intact to be able to build pressure like this to inflate like a metal...
  31. Browser glitch a video card failure?

    That looks like a video memory corruption issue, which might be temporarily solvable by baking the video card to reflow the solder on the video memory chips. But yours is not a video card, so I guess you need to bake your entire computer and CPU, sorry.
  32. Ethereum GPU mining?

    I was also wondering if you could create a text file with your lines of code, rename the extension to .bat, and then put that batch file in the startup folder so it's all automated. Or, you could just save a shortcut to the batch file on the desktop, then double-click the batch file to start it up.
  33. 7970 Artifacts

    I second this recommendation. I recently cooked a 7950 and it revived the card. So far it's been about hmm 6 months still working after baking in the oven. I think I baked at 390 for 10 minutes? I can't recall exactly. Anyway, if your warranty is expired, and you have no other options to...
  34. Replaced Router, faster speed?

    As a test you can install a large game from Steam. The downloader has a nice graph that shows fluctuations etc. in speed over time, and whether you are pegged at your download speed limit.
  35. SSD slowly losing storage space

    You might be able to free up some space in your Winsxs folder. That keeps backups of all your drivers, whether you are using them now or not. That way, windows always has a driver handy if you ever plug in an old peripheral or something, and won't need to search for and download them again...
  36. Blocking neighbors unsecured wifi

    I would guess that if you put up any films or stuff to block the wifi signal, you run the risk of blocking other signals that you want, such as your cell phone signals, your TV broadcast signals, etc. But that assumes the film is not targeting a specific frequency, if that kind of film even...
  37. New ATi card, 8 _B RAM, pretty cheap

    yes, thanks for correction, I was thinking AGP or something???
  38. New ATi card, 8 _B RAM, pretty cheap

    So it seems there is a mismatch between the image and the description. Can you technically buy this thing, based on the description saying it's PCI (bus), then reject it if it looks like the picture and has an ISA bus interface instead (i.e., the description is wrong and the image is correct)...
  39. GPU Upgrade

    Why did the fan stop working? If it's due to mechanical reasons, you might want to try popping off the spinning fan part, cleaning the axle and bushing, then applying some new grease (like, bearing grease, not WD40) and seeing if that lets it spin again.
