    Dell 23" SP2309W 2048x1152 $199.99 shipped

    i've had this for about a year now as a secondary monitor... really not a huge fan. awful viewing angles, weird coloring, tons of backlight bleed. text on it is difficult to read because of the angles (the bottom of the monitor is at mouth level for me). It makes me appreciate all other monitors...

    Resolved.

    This is really a selling point for me. I love this case, but the fact that they let the HD's cook really bothers me. Anyone able to settle my fears on this?

    Controller thoughts with Linux?

    The RocketRaid 2320 has the same chipset (Marvell 88SX6081) as the one i'm currently using, just with their added on 'xor' chip. uses the same driver: sata_mv This driver is the whole reason i'm looking to swap out the cards. the support just isn't there when you throw serious IO at it. I'd...

    Q6600 and E7200 heatsink replacement ideas

    i just bought a Q6600, and a E7200 (45nm). I picked up an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro for the Q6600 because i plan on doing a big O/C. That said, the cooler that comes stock with the Q6600 seems to be better than the one that comes with the E7200. It has a copper bottom and i figure if i...

    18 HDD's = dead psu. how can I avoid a junk replacement?

    :( I'd like to avoid running two separate PSU's at all costs. If one PSU died and took out half the drives and it degraded the array to a state that wasn't recoverable, I'd be a sad panda. the SATA controllers that i bought don't seem to support it. They're Ockie's old Supermicro...

    18 HDD's = dead psu. how can I avoid a junk replacement?

    Normally I wouldn't contribute to the 'recommend X' epidemic that we have here at [H] but I'm really strapped for time and researching here is only leaving me with more questions. I've got an old P4 (2.4c) with 9 drives in it. I attempted to add 9 more SATA drives and it seems that my 500...
