As the thread title says, the key word is inexpensive!
I will be using these drives to try to build a small and horribly underpowered ZFS NAS by reusing/repurposing an old ass WHSv1 appliance. (Scaleo Home Server SS4200 for those who are curious, it sounds like it will be a massive challenge...
As the title says, I am looking for two working LGA775 CPUs (not P4 generation) with a HSF (these will go into a Shuttle so space is somewhat limited).
Also looking for any 2.5" and 3.5" platter SATA hard drives that are 80gb through 160gb. These have to work perfectly fine with no problems...
I know some of you people have old laptops that are not being used, gathering dust, being used as toilet seat covers :D, etc.
Cosmetic problems are fine (Unless they are significant, such as LCD screen has smudges, keyboard has no markings, etc., then its a per-case basis)
Here are some of...
As the title says, looking for spare routers that is flashable to Tomato (or large enough to flash DD-WRT with openVPN). Looking for ones about $10-15 shipped, must work perfectly fine and must include a power adapter.
Dug up a USB flash drive that has a FAT16 partition but Windows Explorer sees files that are corrupted (file name, timestamps, size discrepancy, etc). Chkdsk says that it can fix it but there is no space in the drive to actually do so. I cannot delete any of the files since I do not know which...
Don't know that much about audio, other then plugging speakers into the jack and using it, so be gentle! The Z-340 that I have is beginning to have problems and I am in a mood for upgrading my current audio setup if the sound quality is vastly improved. I play a mix of music and games, but I am...
As the title says, but I have doubts that anyone would actually sell one used for a cheaper price. Oh well, cant hurt for trying.

The motherboard must work perfectly fine, have at least six DDR3 slots and two PCI-E 16x slots. Built-in USB 3.0 is good bonus.
Budget is around $200 shipped, let me know what you have!
HP Touchpad 32gb BNIB --- $200 + shipping
This is still shrinkwrapped and bought during the firesale in August, so it is not a refurb unit and should theoretically have some warranty left.

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Moderate gaming (World of Tanks), Adobe CS5 suite (Photoshop, Premiere, InDesign, Illustrator, Flash, Dreamweaver), Engineering software (Matlab, Xilinx, LabView, etc.)
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping...
I need 2 SATA hard drives to build up 2 spare computers. Any drive size is fine, as long as it doesn't have any problems/SMART issues. Hopefully someone would be willing to let go of any spare small capacity drives for extremely cheap.
Bleh, can a mod modify the title to say "WTB: Two small...
Heres a quick rundown:
Xeon X3440, 4gb ECC (for now), 8x2tb LP Seagates (those new 4k sector drives with 64mb cache), Supermicro X8SIA-F, 4x Br10i's
Being new to ESXi, it had to fool around it until I got it to do what I want. For now, I want to migrate my data from the old WHS machine to the...
Like the thread says, but the motherboard has to work perfectly fine.
Substitutes like ECS K8M890M-M, MSI K9VGM-V or the Foxconn K8M890M2MB-RS2H might be okay
Whoops, can a mod change the thread title to "WTB: one of these 4 old motherboards?"
Me and my brother have built a PC for a friend of ours. 2 weeks ago, the PC just dies out of no where, no POST or beeping. Removed every component except for the bare essentials. Long diagonistic story short, its 90% chance that the motherboard is shot with no visible damage/smell (budget...
As the title says, is there a way for WHS to copy duplicated folders to all drives?
I was surprised that when I looked at Duplication Info that only one drive has all of my duplication folder data and my other 5 drives have only bits and pieces of it. To me, it feels like inadequate...
I need one of this size as I have no need of larger capacities. The drive has to be working completely fine (passes all extended SMART tests with no errors or warnings, etc)
Looking for one at $10 shipped
Trying to clone a dying drive
The laptop drive went tits up, showing a sizable amount of reallocated sectors in SMART.
It has gotten to a point where it can boot to windows fine, but you cannot use Windows Explorer to look at the drive or even open folders, as the drive would click furiously...
With a great emphasis on cheap, but with all the necessary accessories/parts to make it complete. This might be a very long shot but I am looking at $150 to $200 shipped if thats even remotely possible. :D
Up for sale is my old watercooling kit that has been used and literally gathering dust. I moved on to air due to difficulty and laziness to properly accommodate my case with it.
Block: Swiftech GT with all accessories. (at least it should be complete)
Pump: Delphi DDC-1T (MCP-350/355?) with...
Problem happened today while waking up the computer from S3 standby.
When it finished waking up, I noticed that the desktop didnt load but the mouse was movable. Keyboard controls are dead so I cant alt-ctrl-del, so I hit the reset button and it completely freezes up during memory detection...
I need a couple of small capacity SATA hard drives and SATA dvd-rw's for my parents build.
The conditions for the hard drives are:
- New or used is fine, but it must have no S.M.A.R.T errors, thus the drive should be generally reliable and that it works perfectly fine (please provide an...
I recently bought a D-link DGS-2208 8-port gigabit switch to help improve network transfers. While it was good from a gigabit-capable computer to another gigabit-capable computer, when I transferred stuff from my gigabit Vista computer to my bros non-gigabit computer, the speed is extremely slow...
So I scavenged 2 EIDE drives from an unused DIsh Network DVR that was left out on the street. A 250gb and a 120gb Maxtor Quickview drives.
After quite a bit on searching, I only found scraps of conflicting info about the hard drives being used for normal operations like a PC or backup storage...
Seems like the only thing new in the "E-" suffix is that it has a new feature:
"Revolution energy saving design with GIGABYTE Dynamic Energy Saver(DES) technology"
Is there any 'gotchas' for getting this motherboard over the non-E revision? (which is somehow more expensive)
Literally, a bang (or not). On 1/1/2008, I popped in my new video card into my GA-965P-S3, made a friendy beep at me and a second later, a loud sizzle filled the room along with magic smoke (in which I accidently inhaled most of it since it was shooting towards me). Nonetheless, I do not have a...
At 9x300 and 1.25 vcore, during load, the cpu will hit the high 60's C and possibly spike into the low 70's with 26C ambient.
The cooler is an ZEROtherm CF900 and the mobo is a GA-965P-DS3 with FSB and G(MCH) voltage bumped up to 0.1v.
HSF link...
This is the Q6600 I have recently purchased from frys in the 4th of july deal.
The motherboard is a GA-965P-S3 and the ram is a Patriot 2x2gb 800mhz@5-5-5-15, Vcore is at auto and FSB is at 400.
However, when I run the applications for stress testing, it gives me 2 different speeds in which...
After salvaging parts from my friend to build a computer for my cousin, I am suprised that I could have a 3.2ghz prescott cpu, and I knew that these cpus run super hot.
Upon cleaning the cpu and its stock HSF, and checked that the cpu fan is spinning, I powered on the computer and I left it...
The part number is OCZ26672048ELDCGE-K

Bought the ram from this forum off of Super Nade...
The red one in the middle, since the person who took the pic did not realize that the specific model number is blocked. All I know is that its from the K8WE series (or similar), but this mobo is not listed in the offical tyan site.
