    HP G7 with MSA70 have some questions.

    Ahh ok so the LSI card is no good for this. Thankfully I only spent 20 bucks on it lol. I do want to run the 8 internal drives as well as the 25 in the msa70 as one large volume to use as storage. Do I need to look into a new card to replace the LSI as well as the HP P410I? If so what cord...

    HP G7 with MSA70 have some questions.

    Thanks for the reply and I get what you are saying about the msa70 having a SAS expander in it already. The reason I bought the 20 dollar LSI card is so I could connect the msa70 to the G7 server. Or is there another card that I should be using that will let me connect the G7 to the msa70?

    Debt-Ceiling Shutdown Will Close Some Gov’t Websites

    The only thing I can say is this: I don’t vote because this is what happens…. We vote in complete retards that tricked all the voters that did vote for them. I almost think of them as suckers for falling for it. (For those of you that do vote I’m not trashing on them/you...

    WTB: i7 2600K or 2700K

    What are 2600K's even worth these days? I have been debating on rebuilding something a little newer and I have a 2600K.

    WTB: 2600k

    Are they really worth much? Edit: Are you just looking for one or for a "cherry picked" one?

    Senate Passes Internet Sales Tax Bill

    This is what I was wondering myself. I live in MI and sales tax here is only 6% but I know other states are 7-8% and some states have 0% sales tax. I think Montana doesn't? I could be wrong and something i heard. But hell if so I see a lot of Etailers setting up shop there to keep customers...
