sorry about the bad link, this is the hard drive I was thinking of: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136317 While I don't need pci-E at all (I'll just be using on-board sata ports) I would like to go with an intel processor because for some reason I am convinced...

Okay, I've done a bit of research, and slept on this for a few weeks, and here's what I have come up with. Hard drives (will be pulling a sata 200GB drive from another system for the boot drive) PSU Mobo CPU RAM (I will be using my own 2X1GB ddr2 667) Case (I will be using...

The specs on it fit my needs perfectly, and the price isn't too steep for what I'm getting. I'm sure I'll have better luck with this board over a pci* sata controller, but how compatible do you think this will be with Solaris or linux if I choose that route.

I will definetly go with a power supply like that once I put more than one or two drives in, thanks for the suggestion. Also, I took a look at server motherboards and found this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813182164 Any thoughts on it?

I'm hoping I can get a few suggestions on parts for the file server I'm planning on building. Currently I have: 1) An ATX case (6 3.5'' bays and 4 5.25'' bays). 2) A fairly generic 350W switching power supply out of my current INWIN (again, generic) case. 3) At least one WD Caviar...

Here's my Ubuntu 8.10 :O

yes, I was referring to the cooling that you mentioned, and that BS-03 looks like a good solution, all I need now is a small pricedrop on the A05B on newegg and I won't be able to resist. Oh, and a TRUE as well :D

http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product/product06.php?pr_index=289&cl_index=1&sc_index=25&ss_index=63 I've been eyeing the a05b as a possible case to migrate to, would this one be better to wait for? or can I deal with the airflow issues in the old model :O or I could not upgrade at all, I'm...

if you are still looking for a solution, I have something you can try for firefox specifically. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7336 It's an addon called Glasser, and it makes the area in question behave like its the title bar, so it will be transparent when you have aero...

It's Hong Kong.

I had this same dilemma a while ago, and ended up getting a receiver with 3 optical inputs, which i used for just headphones for the longest time. From what I hear, there aren't many headphone amps that take optical inputs. I opted for an all-in-one device, but I'm sure you can get components...

if you are talking about the sound card that I think you are, you might need to get the "Sound Blaster Digital I /o Module" thing that lets you plug the toslink cable in. I got one for 20 bucks on amazon. That might be what you're looking for...

400Mhz ddr2 is effectively 800mhz, amiright?
