    G.Skill - waiting 2 days and counting for RMA action - is this normal for them?

    You're totally right. I usually follow that advice, but since it was Labor Day I took a gamble that having it in their queue first thing the next day would get some action before a phone call. For what it's worth, when I dialed the 909 number and got a live person I was certain I'd chosen...

    Dumb hardware RAID question - Mac, Windows, Linux

    Hey guys, Been around here for ages but there is such good info I haven't posted in a long time. I need some help, though, because searching is turning up all sorts of info that isn't quite the answer to my dumb question. Here's the situation: I built an i3 machine which will triple boot...
