    HDD prices rising

    I just got off a chat with newegg and asked how long the wait had to be between orders. The customer service rep said at this point they had no idea. WTF?

    Help with Media storage

    I thought I could use partition magic to allocate the drives into 1 but I don't think I can. This is all over my head. I am just going to install the drives as individual drives on my computer. I wanted to have them all as one big drive but this stuff is over my head. Thanks for all the help. I...

    I appreciate the offer. I might look into that down the road. Right now I am going to see if I can get around having to seperate the data from my computer. Has anyone used Disk Spanning with Dynamic Disk in Vista premium 64bit? I read that it is only available in vista ultimate. PLEASE tell me I...

    I thought you could not do it in Vista? I am searching right now. I went to disk management and could not find out how to do it. That sounds like exactly what I am looking for.

    Help with Media storage

    Ok, thanks for the help. What if I used this card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815121009 and just hooked all the movie hard drives up to it? Would that work? Would I just run it as JBOD? So they would all appear under the same drive letter, but if one drive failed...

    Help with Media storage

    I have room for 8 hard drives in my case, I would like to keep the drives in it if possible. Ultimately my main goal is to have the ability to add more hard drives to my case and have them appear as 1 hard drive on my computer. I do not care about having other computers being able to access the...

    Help with Media storage

    If I did a windows home server I could just add it to my computer, correct? I do not want to have to buy/build another computer just to store my files. I do not share any files throughout the house on a network. Plus I like the idea of having everything one one location. I assume you set it...

    Help with Media storage

    Ok, after reading all night I think my best option would be to set up a raid5. I have looked at my motherboards manual and it doesn't offer much help. Can someone please tell me exactly what I need to buy to set up a raid5 so all of my hard drives appear as one logical volume? Do I need to get a...

    Help with Media storage

    I have read for the past couple of weeks on what would be the best way to set up my media and I am still confused. I built my computer thanks to this great forum but am unsure what I need to do for the media storage I am trying to set up. I currently have 4 hard drives (2 1tb, 1 750, and 1 WD...

    1st Build jitters

    I ordered the thermaltake toughpower 750 for $100 shipped. If I was to go with a Q9550, what would you recommend for a motherboard if I was going to get a 4570 now and possibly upgrade to a crossfire setup later? I have everything else picked out except the motherboard. Thanks for your help.

    Build for less than $1500?

    Next week you should be able to get a q9550 for around the same price as a Q9445. There is going to be a price drop in the q9445 as well.

    1st Build jitters

    Well I just cant see paying $180 for a q6600 when I can get a $550 processer for $350 in a week. I do not want to have any regrets later. I know it is probably more that what I need, but it isn't that much more $. As far as a 4570, I should be able to run the 32" and play games on a 4850 for...

    1st Build jitters

    Very good info. Thank you! I added the combo to my cart and saved $25. I decided to get the Toughpower because I wanted a modular PS. The rebate on it expires tomorrow so I think I am going to order it tonight. Plus newegg's 10% off power supply code will save another $17. I am going to chage...

    I have been doing a lot of research here and think I have a good idea for my 1st PC build. I will be using it for mostly web surfing and a little gaming and DVD watching/burning.

    Need help with first build

    Great! Thanks for the help. I thought I had a sata hard drive in my cart, glad you pointed that out. I already have a sata 750 hard drive that I am going to add to it also. The main reason I was going with a beefy PSU is because it was on sale with the combo for the case I liked. After rebates...

    Hello, I am looking to build a computer for the first time and have done a lot of reading and research. How does the system look below? Is there anything that I have picked out that will not work? I want to make sure I do not buy the wrong things. After rebates the total comes to $909.90. How...
