    New display

    Howdy, So right now i am using my dell 24in lcd Circa 04/05 time frame. So as i am building my new gaming system i think its time to get something newer and bigger. I know IPS is all the rage but i get this feeling is still new and needs a little more time to mature. I suppose i could...

    New Storage System - Any Thoughts/Feedback?

    Hello, Just wanted to add something if you plan on running vail remember the min spec for the HD has been increased to 160gig give or take a little. So either pay now or pay later or get a cheap 250 gig laptop HD and swap out later when u get vail or SSD prices drop some. Just my 2 cents

    Home virtual solution

    I recommend you check out Citrix xenserver. Its free, its really fast, and its not as picky with hardware as VMware. "you do need Cpu visualization though" At the end of the day you can try a few different hypervisor's and choose which one makes the most sense for your needs. I do...

    New Storage System - Any Thoughts/Feedback?

    I second using stock HSF, i still have mine kicking around if need be. doubt it will come to that as i don't ever see needing more than 4 gig of memory on this file server.

    New Storage System - Any Thoughts/Feedback?

    For the most part i think the core i3 is the way to go, the SM MB is amazing and its worth the RMA if you get the wrong version.. IF you want custom power cables go to frozen cpu and save yourself time, money and frustration trying to make your own. Since its not totally off the ground i wish...

    New Storage System - Any Thoughts/Feedback?

    They never really said.. I have to assume the case was bent in shipping as i sent the sas boards back and then they requested the case. When i was running into issues the first night i did see some of the sata connectors were just not lining up correctly. I may have torqued the case...

    New Storage System - Any Thoughts/Feedback?

    hey just wanted to post a quick update. I just got my new case from Norco "since i had to rma my old one" Almost done with the reinstall but i did make time to test out most of the hd bays. They work like a champ with no issues what so ever. So props to Norco for standing behind...

    New Storage System - Any Thoughts/Feedback?

    Oh hey, Forgot to mention this. Not sure if its new info or not but the dual power connectors in the norco cases are redundant and you only need to wire 1 side as per the folks at norco.

    New Storage System - Any Thoughts/Feedback?

    So Norco wants my case back and they will ship me a new replacement. Not really on the top of my list since everything got installed cabled etc. But they have been really good about everything and willing to work with me.. So 2 thumbs up to norco for standing behind their product and...
