    XFX Warranty Surprise :(

    Well if anyone wants two out of warranty (But still working fine) 9800 GX2's the ebay auctions start tonight. I know I should have done more research. I read the reviews of the XFX 9800 GX2, and it said it had a five year warranty. The cards have been 100% reliable, so I've never had any...

    XFX Warranty Surprise :(

    Hi All I feel I need to have a rant. I've just upgraded my two XFX 9800GX2's with two XFX 5870's. The plan was to ebay the two 9800's. I was under the impression that XFX's warranties were always miles better than anyone elses. I chose my 9800's from them because at the time the reviews...

    RAM Upgrade for Areca ARC-1680D-IX-16

    As long as it's x8 it should work fine. Just passed a year's uptime on the two controllers running the 4GB Kingston modules :)

    Your HD tune scores

    4x WD 300GB Velociraptors in RAID0 running on my Areca 1680-IX-8; 4x OCZ 64GB Vertex SSD in RAID0 running on my Areca 1680-IX-8; I'm using the Raptors for OS and the Vertex's for Games - I do seem to be getting into game servers quite a bit quicker than before.........

    Keep 300GB Velociraptor or buy SSD

    Nah - Server spins down all the drives when not in use - which is at least 90% of the time - plus it's a low power Xeon, so idles quite nicely. My workstation however......... Lets just say the wife has noticed the extra power usage and isn't too thrilled..........

    New Server

    Here's the server sat in my loft - You can just see the Edge 10 sitting on an UPS behind it; Here's my pitiful comms cab - The old Dell is my IPCop - You can never have too many firewalls, and I like to run a content filter to keep out the nasties; And although this is unrelated, I...

    Ran out of space so got one of these and 8 more 1TB drives; It's called an Edge10 DAS801T (Although I've seen it advertised under a few differnt names) and somes with an ESATA card. Was fairly cheap ~ £230.

    Help - ARC-1680-IX-8 + M28E1 + WD3000GLFS = Nothing!

    Hi all I'm trying to add some more storage to my workstation. I originally had 4 WD3000GLFS drives hooked up to an ARC-1222 controller. I've bought an ARC-1680-IX-8 controller, SuperMicro M28E1 Expander and four OCZ Vertex drives. My plan is to use the Vertex drives for gaming, and keep...
