    SilverStone Olympia 1000w and WD RE2-GP

    Hello, As the topic states, I have a SilverStone Olympia 1000w PSU and it is currently running in my server where I have 2xSNT-3051 backplanes. The thing is, I have had problem with the WD RE2-GP drives dropping out of the array depending on the power cables connected to the SNTs. Eg at first...

    Your HD tune scores

    Here are HD Tune benchmark on a Seagate 500gig 7200.11 as single drive on Areca. and here are WD CAVIAR RE2-GP 1TB 16MB These raid disks are a bit slow as single drives but hopefully they are better choice for raid then desktop models. Do anyone have benchmark of a big array of RE2 Disks...

    Your HD tune scores

    Here is my array, note that I benched my array from 3 disk up to 6 disk to see how the speed is affected by using more and more disks. The controller is an Areca 1280ML and the array is a raid-5 array. 3x500Gig Seagate 7200.10 and .11 4x500Gig Seagate 7200.10 and .11 5x500Gig...

    Truecrypt disk encryption - which CPU for performance?

    Intel core 2 duo 6600 2.4GHz running @ 3.53GHz: I really hope they add support for encrypting/decrypting whole disks in the future (not only os partition). Would have been even more cool if it actually worked with raid arrays; atm you can not expand a raid array if you are running TC.

    New TrueCrypt v5.0 with full windows system encryption!

    Works really nice for me, one warning though. TrueCrypt prevents your laptop from going into hibernation mode because it is not supported yet.

    Expanding Raid5 and BestCrypt/TrueCrypt Array

    I actually haven't encrypted a raid array yet, I was more curious to see if it was possible to do it without decrypting the whole disk array. If I understand TrueCrypt correctly, you actually can not expand a volume file so this option is out of the question I guess, since I do want to encrypt...

    Expanding Raid5 and BestCrypt/TrueCrypt Array

    Hello, I am wondering if anyone has any experience in expanding a Raid array that is encrypted with either TrueCrypt or BestCrypt ? Basically what I want to know is if it works to say, Encrypt a 3 Disk Raid 5 array with TrueCrypt or BestCrypt and then later expand the array with additional...
