Oh nice! Thanks for the heads up. Scorptec are on the pricier side of PC stores, so maybe a cheaper one (CPL perhaps) will get stock in a bit cheaper. Let me know if you get a response regarding viewing the monitor. I know the Philips person told me on the phone on Monday that they expect stock...
I've been looking for this monitor in Australia. I contacted Philips and they said it should be in stores before Christmas and have an RRP of A$1099. Hopefully the street price is more like $949 - I'm looking forward to getting one and pairing it up with my 2014 15" Retina MBP
I've set up a Windows 2008 R2 file server, using Windows software RAID-5 and having a bit of an issue with write speeds. These are the specs of the file server:
Athlon II X2 240 CPU
Gigabyte GA-MA790UX-UD4P mainboard
2GB DDR2-800 RAM
Seagate ST9250315AS (250GB 2.5" 5400RPM HDD) boot drive...
Yeah, I'm not 100% sure on the cards either (they should, but you never know), there were really cheap (under AU$200 for both), so it's worth a shot :)
Thanks!
I've got my hands on two PCI Express 8x IBM ServeRAID-8s RAID controllers, but am struggling to find a motherboard that supports running two PCI Express 8x cards simultaneously, at 8x.
Any suggestions? Doesn't matter if it's Intel or AMD - I need to buy a CPU to go with anyways.
