    So I have a pair of Thermalright SI-9XV heatsinks (the sideways 92mm heatpipe variety) for my Xeons..I got them because the Supermicro's I run are hard-pressed to keep my new 3.2 Gallatins cool without a stupid amount of air over them. Heatsinks shown here...

    Iomega Rev + Backup Exec 10

    Does anyone have experience using an Iomega Rev with BE 10 on Sever 2003? The guy I'm supporting is seeing hard locks during backups but they are intermittent. The rev is set up as a removable backup-to-disk folder and when it doesn't lock up, it works fine. Symantec (Veritas) support...

    So I spent some more time working on my deskside workstation/rendergarden rack. Got a lot more done than I figured I would so I figured I'd whore up some in-progress pics. Got a total of 5 of these SGI cases now (sold 4 to a friend, I had 9). I still need rails for the other 2 in the...

    Why I hate 1&1 Internet v.2

    I'm sure some of you remember the drama from when it happened. More BS recently so I'm through with the assholes. I know I'm not the only one they've fucked over with their mismanagement, lies and other crap. Enjoy my new site: www.derickshaw.com up until my transfer goes though.

    Mac Mini RAM Upgrade (Pics)

    Repost from a couple other forums, but I figured you [H] mac guys would enjoy it too. So.... 256MB was better than I expected..but it needs more for the FCP stuff I'm doing so I figured I'd pop it open and have a peak inside. I wasn't sure if standard issue PC DDR would work, so I...

    Anyone with M-Audio under Win 2003?

    Got an Audiophile 2496 under 2003, configured as workstation. Love the OS...so much faster disk access than XP Pro (especially the SCSIs). Anyway..only one piece of hardware drama to sort out, and its a big one. My M-Audio drivers work (officially not supported..need to run the installer in...

    Anyone have 1&1's 24 hour support number?

    Assholes didn't re-up for my domain name (despite having a valid CC on file) so I can't get at my site or email..but I can't re-register it somewhere else cause it's taken apparently. 1&1 has now stopped support for the free promo play I guess, and I can't log in because my domain has expired, I...

    WTB: PCMCIA USB, not cardbus

    I've got an older laptop that I'd like a USB connection on. Can't use a cardbus card, so USB 2 is out of the question. Does anyone have one of these or know of one for sale anywhere? I've been unable to find one anywhere, which seems odd to me. If the laptop had cardbus ability, it seems it...

    Xeon S603 vs. S604

    I have a pair of 2.2/400's that are S604 (at least, I think they are). A guy looking to buy them wants 603 only (and inquired the following)....are these, if 604 (I have to look again), compatible with a pin chop? I thought that extra pin was for 533 bus originally but its obviously not.

    BBA 9800 Pro -> FGL X2 Hardmod Success Story

    Got my 'new' 9800 Pro 128MB tonight (swapped it for my 9500 pro and some other stuff with a friend). I decided I was tired of messing around with modified drivers and figured since I'd done harder mods plenty of times I'd get on with it... so... 1) I popped off the heatsink, removed the...

    WTTF/WTB HD Cage - InClose ATA & SCSI bays FS/FT

    WTB Sun Spud or similar SCA cage
