    Info only. No help needed : Dell Outlet Xeon machine

    They don't seem to have any 5000 series Xeon computers at all listed? I can't even find the 5500's in their search? Do you know if they only show up when they are in stock?

    WHS v2 Codename Vail

    Any other extra features in there that aren't in WHS v1 that you can tell us about? I know there were some features that original users wanted to see, like a trimmed down exchange server, and others that have slipped my mind for now.

    MCE Controller

    This will be tethered by a USB cable though. I think he was looking for something portable.

    New Lian Li PC-A77F w/ USB 3.0 Ports!!!

    Yeah, I saw the picture, and thats what confused me. By reading what they say in their specs, they make it sound like you can get 9 internal 3.5 bays by using 6 of the 5.25 external bays. Maybe it's a mistake on their part.

    New Lian Li PC-A77F w/ USB 3.0 Ports!!!

    Am I reading the specs right: Internal 3.5 bays = 9 (Use 5.25 x 6 Bays) So, by that math, if I had no optical drives, this case can have 18 internal 3.5 bays? (Use 5.25 x 12 Bays)

    Case: Am I too picky?

    All of those seem to be pretty deep. I really need it to be around 14 inches or less.

    Case: Am I too picky?

    The thing I like about the HeatSync, is it's depth. I have a full size ATX motherboard, and I can't seem to find a short depth case that will fit in the same shelf system as the rest of my components. I don't want to pay $750 for it either. I don't want to take over this thread, but does...

    fios vs cable vs other, what do you have? POLL

    I just got FiOS the other day. I absolutely love it so far over Comcast. Comcast had a monopoly in our area for high-speed internet for a while, and I am so glad to have choices now. Comcast also was charging me for 5 STB's in my 2 bedroom condo. I had to figure this out on my own, and...

    TiVo Desktop, Video Redo, and Handbrake Automation.

    Hey guys, I have a TiVo, and it is setup to record TV series, and then the TiVo desktop program automatically copies those to my computer. I then run it through VideoReDo to get rid of commercials, and then run it through handbrake to make the file smaller to archive on my WHS machine. Is...
