    Poor Man's vmotion like setup?

    I'm waiting for 3.0 to get released so I can test LIO-target, but lopoetve is right. Default iSCSI initiator for OF 2.99 and below is SCST, which doesn't have SCSI-3 persistent reservations. Now you can CLI configure OF to use LIO-target, but it's a PITA. For now, I've succumbed to just...

    Acer Iconia tablet Best Buy $243 w/tax + $10 gift card

    SOLD OUT. Got it for my GF. I'm really surprised that more peeps weren't more interested in this on [H] (unless you already saw the deal on SD or Bens Bargains).

    New SFF gamers case: presentation and advices

    Mind telling us how much? I was going to sell my case to an old customer for his gaming rig, but I didn't want to sell it without getting a replacement or properly pricing it.

    Early OCZ Synapse impressions

    Thanks for the review. I take it that when you install the Dataplex software it's only good for use on one PC? What's the maximum cache size you can provision? Can you cache muliple drives? I know I could Google, but I'm feeling extra lazy.

    3rd Party SSD Caching software

    I don't think Readyboost is as advanced as SSD cacheing impementations. Readyboost can only use USB, not SATA\SAS attached storage for cacheing as far as I know.

    Corsair Giveaway - Force Series™ GT 180GB Solid-State Hard Drive

    I already bought a Corsair Force 3 60GB and would like to get one for my GF, who just had surgery and she would feel a whole lot better if she had an SSD. (this is actually a true story) :D

    Installing patch panel and cable length

    Always leave them longer. You can alway cut back..........you can't add unless you splice/extend, which is a bad idea. My 2nd house, I was lucky enough to be able to install conduit which made it a moot point. Didn't have that luxury on my current house so I left plenty of extra.

    Heat limited I7 2600K with a Noctua NH-D14?

    I'm running a Cogage Arrow, which is no slouch, and I'm seeing the same temps...........4.8 Ghz wth HT at 1.35V and I'm hitting 80C with LinX. My HS/Motherboard sits parallel to desktop, so I doubt contact is an issue in my setup.

    Any other decent mATX board besides the Asus Maximus IV GENE-Z?

    See my sig for my OC on my Gene. When I get a hair up my butt, I'll raise the voltage and see if I can hit 5 Ghz (at 1.35v for now).

    Help me find a shoe-box style case with specific specs

    You really should get a bag to carry your case. I tried the Gear Grip handle thingy and carrying it that way beats your rig up pretty quickly. I actually had mine break in the airport..............it was not fun. While a solid-mounted handle may not break, you're still going to beat your rig...

    I picked up 2 2600K's and a Gigabyte Z68MA-D2H-B3 and a Gigbyte Z68MX-UD2H-B3 for $695 after taxes. I priced on Newegg and I saved about $200. Both boards were 80 bucks off, so one board came to $35 and the other $60. Gonna swap one of the 2600K's into my Maximus and see if I can hit the...

    I'm sure this has been beaten to death in this forum but I'm looking for some updated information. Quite a few posts around the net say: "Openfiler hasn't been updated in years..." This isn't true. 2.99 has been out for some time now. 3.0 Is pending release "Openfiler is faster than...

    ATX vs mATX - still important?

    My Maximus IV Gene has 6 internal SATA ports, 2 SATA-3, 4 SATA-2, and two additional eSATA ports for a total of 8 SATA ports. I don't use eSATA.............I use an external USB 3.0 HD docking station......much easier to add/remove drives on USB than it is eSATA and speed is comparable. It...
