    First time lighting up SAS drives

    This is my first time lighting up SAS drives so I'm looking for some advice. I have come upon about 14 10K SFF (2.5 inch) SAS drives. I would like to use at least 4 of them, preferably 8 or more of them, on my Linux desktop as JBOD (not a hardware RAID). I want Linux to talk to the disks...

    Constant high-pitched noise from speakers

    I switched from the SB Audigy 2 ZS to the onboard sound card (Realtek ALC892) and continued to hear the screeching. (The onboard sounded worse so I went back to the Audigy for subsequent tests.)

    Stereo awesomeness for around $450

Thanks for that information and advice. You know, I...

    Stereo awesomeness for around $450

    I've been lurking in the computer audio forum for a while but this is my first post. My brother has a Kenwood XD-750 which he uses with his PC and with the extra bass setting turned on, everyone comments that his speakers are the best they've ever heard. Now my goal is to crush him and his...
