    Do you have to install Win7 to SSD for benefits? Or can you image copy?

    If you have Acronis thats your best bet for testing just to see if it even works... I would Acronis and Restore just to see what happens. Get the demo version, worst case you wasted 30 min and just do a fresh install... I assume once you do a fresh install on SSD, and want to use Acronis for...

    OS on Raptor, Games on SSD? or other way around

    Id really like to see that same comparison with the Fuji 15K RPM SAS drives in the mix... ive been wanting these drives for a while but waiting for a mobo that supported SAS since I didn’t want to have to buy an additional controller. Right now for me it’s coming down to SSD vs SAS, but I...

    OS on Raptor, Games on SSD? or other way around

    Those figures make me wonder why I still have my 74GB raptor drives... what version are those? 1st Gen or 2nd? SSD prices really need to come down. I was considering buying 2 x 15K RPM SAS drives (raid 0) to replace my raptors for my i7 P6T6 workstation. If you can support SAS I think it’s a...

    OS on Raptor, Games on SSD? or other way around

    Why not just get another raptor and raid 0 them along with the SSD =) Or raid 0 two SSD drives and toss the raptor. Personally I would use the SSD for the OS files before I used them for games. Having games/os of two seperate drives is already an advantage from an I/O standpoint for...

    i7 or i5, which would you recommend?

    I decided to go with 1366 for my i7 build. I am still trying to figure out if I am going with an i7 920 or a Xeon 1366 CPU for ECC support. I am building a workstation for VMWare, Video Editing, and occasional PC games. I have a feeling I am also going to end up with the ASUS P6T6 WS mobo...

    Project:PURE

    I have to give it to you… this is one of the best looking water cooled custom builds ive ever seen. You have done a fantastic job; your attention to detail is very good. I’ve been building systems for over 10 years and this really stood out to me. White on black looks fantastic.

    Building a school network from the ground up

    Firewall Recommendation: This comes from personal experience with the product as an end user, and also as a consultant. I’ve used many open source options along with commercial firewalls from Cisco, Watchguard, SonicWall, ISA Server, and a few others… One of the best firewalls...

    Building a school network from the ground up

    I don’t think it was dumb advise, but it really depends on how old the Cisco switches were. My work network is 100% ProCurve now, granted we were replacing Linksys and Netgear switches and moving everything to gigE. My only gripe with Cisco switches are the cost, HP is a close and competitive...
