    educate me on external enclosures

    Thanks for the replies, they've been helpful. After looking more closely it appears I was confusing enclosures with docking stations, which looked a lot bulkier in the pics. Since I plan on moving it around and I have a curious 2 year old boy I would think an enclosure is a better option...

    educate me on external enclosures

    I currently have a P4 system with an Asus P4C800-E Deluxe MB and a WD 36GB drive as well as a WD 160GB drive that I built in 2003. It has served me well but the drives are full and I'm concerned about their longevity. I had originally planned to buy another internal HD but lately I've been...

    I just want an f'ing monitor that looks good, is consistent from top to bottom and left to right and doesn't have a pricetag on par with a used car. I'd even settle for some dead pixels at this point.

    Pics of my Soyo 24". Is this really an MVA panel?

    Just called my local office max. Looks like they're out of stock so I can't just exchange it. Guess I'll be hooking up my 11 year old 17" trinitron back up tonight and returning this POS.

    Pics of my Soyo 24". Is this really an MVA panel?

    Work is going to prevent me from getting more pics up but I can tell you that when I look at it from 2-4 feet away from only 45 degrees off center it looks a lot different. My desktop wallpaper is a pic of my son and if I'm standing it is easy to see the detail in his hair. When I'm sitting a...

    Pics of my Soyo 24". Is this really an MVA panel?

    I'll be honest, I didn't understand all the complaining about viewing angles until I started using this thing. I didn't think it would make a difference if you were sitting square in front of the monitor. Turns out I was wrong. I originally started looking for a good 22" monitor but was...
