    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    my cousin was able to help me with it today. I don't know Linux and was getting stumped on this one part. He did too, but in the end was finally able to flash it. I did the transfers back today with 0 errors. It's still running a background initialization, but I'm assuming it kept wanting to do...

    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    so, I started Windows, and the RAID I created is there. After 10 minutes it starts initializing again, saying it's going to take close to 9 hours. I abort it, then go through to initialize again, choosing Fast Initialize. It says it's done, clears, etc. Then 10 minutes after that it starts...

    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    yes and no. I had a 8 drive RAID hooked up directly to the LSI 9260-8i. They were 3TB Enterprise class drives in RAID 5. I created them wrong so I was tapped out at the 16TB limit. I wanted to add more, as well. I got the expander card, plugged them in, backed up the stuff onto another RAID I...

    Can't enable SLI with NVidia Surround

    okay, little update. NVidia and MSI closed the tickets on me since they couldn't find a solution, and couldn't duplicate the problem because my X68 motherboard is too old. I got both to reopen the ticket because I finally was able to find another MSI GTX770 4GB card, so I took back the Zotac...

    Can't enable SLI with NVidia Surround

    BIOS of the mobo is up to date, Jan of this year, actually. I'm on the phone with Zotac now, the maker of the second card. I have built computers for a long time now and I have never seen a BIOS update for a graphics card. Have changed the ROM of then with NiBiTor long time ago, but that...

    Can't enable SLI with NVidia Surround

    so, I had a single MSI GTX770 4GB and running on three monitors. I wanted to get another 770 for the longest time, but MSI hasn't had stock on them since Black Friday. I finally said the hell with it and picked up a Zotac GTX770 4GB card for SLI thinking my rig would kick ass. I get home...
