    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...

    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...

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

    Hi I purchased a stick of Kingston KVR667D2D4P5/4G ECC RAM for each of my Areca 1680 cards, but when installed the system doesn't boot. I've tried both sticks of RAM in each of my 1680's, so doubt it's a faulty part. The Areca website states that the 1680 supports up to 4GB of ECC DDR2...

    New Server

    Hi All This is my first ever worklog! I was inspired by Ockie's Galaxy 4.0 project to update my own little server to something a bit beefier. I know he has since moved onto rack mounted cases, but I felt that the Lian Li 343B was a lot more expandable, and could last me a fair while. I...

    RAM Upgrade for Areca ARC-1260?

    Hi all I'm in the process of putting together a new storage server for home. I've ordered a low-power quad core Xeon, Intel S5000VSASATA mobo, 16GB RAM, 10 WD RE2 1TB drives and an Areca ARC-1260 RAID controller. My questions are will the 256MB SODIMM on the ARC-1260 be enough? Ideally...
