Is the LSI MegaRAID 9261-8i card compatible with P67 motherboards? I was planning on running this card on an Asus P8P67 Pro motherboard, but I have read that LSI's 6Gb/s MegaRAID cards do not work on P67 motherboards. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Thank you.

So it would be ok to install the Intel RST v12.8.0.1016 drivers on my Windows 7 OS, even though the BIOS for my Asus P8P67 Pro motherboard uses Intel RST v10.5.0.1026 OROM? There won't be any kind of compatibility problem? Also, would there be any advantage to me installing the newest Intel...

I am running an Asus P8P67 Pro motherboard with the newest BIOS revision 3602. This BIOS uses Intel RST v10.5.0.1026 for the onboard RAID. Also, on Asus' website, when I go to the SATA drivers for this board, the newest Intel RST driver available to download for Windows is v10.5.0.1026. My...

I use Photoshop CS6 all the time with no pagefile at all, and I have never had a problem. In fact, I have never had a problem with anything not having a pagefile, and I only have 8GB of ram. I regularly run 10 programs at a time, with 30-40 open tabs in firefox, and I have never once used up all...

He is not saying to move the pagefile to a regular HDD. He is saying to DISABLE the pagefile completely. If you have enough RAM, you don't need a pagefile at all. Sure an SSD is a good place to put a pagefile, but you know what is even faster? Just using your RAM for everything!!

Ok, I have been looking at the IBM ServeRAID M5014 cards. They seem to be a really good deal. The poster above mentioned flashing the IBM ServeRAID with the LSI MegaRAID BIOS. What is the advantage of this? Also, can someone tell me what the difference between these 2 cards is? I can't tell...

Which card are you referring to here? Do you mean the IBM is a real raid card, and the lsi 9240-4i is no good for raid5? Now that I know that the lsi 9240-4i is basically the same as my onboard Intel raid controller, it doesn't seem like as good of an idea. Would there be any benefit in...

I have been using my onboard Intel Raid Storage Technology RAID controller on my motherboard, and I want to upgrade to a real hardware raid card. I am looking at the LSI MegaRAID 9240-4i to run a RAID5 with 4x2TB drives. Is this a good solution? I don't care that much about speed. I just...

Are you saying that your 650D case come with a built in speaker? Because my case doesnt have a speaker or a speaker connection wire.

how do i get a replacement fan controller for my 650D? Mine is making that weird noise, and I checked the model number and it doesnt have the "-1" at the end.

is Lord of The Rings Online completely free to download and play? or do you have to buy the game? It looks like you can just download it for free from their website.

Not the fastest speed, but gotta love the ping.

i would like sc2 please, thanks

how does dd-wrt compare to pfsense?

so both tomato and dd-wrt can replace the stock linksys firmware for routing/nat i.e. they both do pretty much the same thing just with different features

What is the difference between these 2 firmwares for a WRT54G?

Do I need to do anything special to format a 4k sector hard drive properly? If I just use Disk Management in Windows 7 and do a simple format will that align the partition correctly for a 4k drive? I have the latest Intel RST (iaStor) drivers installed for my motherboard (P8P67 Pro). So do...

That still doesnt work. Unless you do the registry tweak, you HAVE to reinstall the operating system.

I think the smallest drive size you want for your boot drive is around 60gb. That is why the Crucial C300 64gb SSD is such a sweet drive. Its cheap, reliable, really fast, and just the right size for a boot drive.

The weirdest thing just happened Now CrystalDiskInfo is showing 0 for "Grown Failing Block Count" (AA/170) on the C300 drive that was previously at 8819. Very strange.

no one knows what this SMART attribute is for? Also, is there any way to access the SMART info a drive that is in a RAID array using the onboard ICH10R controller? CrystalDiskInfo doesn't show the drives that are part of a RAID array. Is there another program that can do that?

what the fvck is your problem? He said he wants a fast 6gb/s harddrive. You obviously didn't read his post. He never said anything about needing alot of storage space. You sound like an idiot. You are obviously the one trolling. Since when does making a recommendation make someone a fanboy...

A Crucial C300 64gb SSD is about $100 which is the same price as any decent regular hard drive. Plus it just happens to be one of, if not the best SSD's on the market for the price.

Faster than what? What other drivers would you use besides the Intel drivers?

I have the Asus P8P67 Pro motherboard which has the onboard ICH10R controller running Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) version 10.1.0.1008 according to the RAID bios. (This is for my RAID array) I am wondering, should I only install the same version of the driver software (10.1.0.1008) in...

One of the SMART attributes on my Crucial C300 128gb SSD drive is called "Grown Failing Block Count". I have 2 of these C300 drives. One drive has '0' for this attribute while the other one shows '8819'. What does Grown Failing Block Count mean? Should I be worried about one drive showing...

Ok here are the registry settings you need to change While you are in AHCI change those three values to "0", then reboot and change the BIOS to RAID mode.

when you change from AHCI to RAID (even if you arent booting to the RAID array), you either have to reinstall windows or you have to make some changes in the registry. I will try to find the exact registry change you need to make. I had to do this same thing on my computer when I installed a...

sell the 970, and you can easily buy a 2500k + Asus P8P67 Pro motherboard with the money with this combo I get 4.5ghz easily, and can run at 4.9ghz @ 1.36v rock stable plus it supports sata 6gb/s natively and usb3.0 sandy bridge is just a newer generation of tech and its much faster than...

what problems did you have with your p8p67? I have the p8p67 pro and it has run flawlessly since i got it.

Is there any reason why I shouldn't run 3 2TB drives that are from different manufacturers in an onboard ICH10R RAID5 array? All 3 drives are 2TB, one is a WD20EARS and 2 are Samsung Spinpoint F4's. I know it is best to run all the same exact drives in RAID, but I was wondering why? It...

You can flash the drives with the new firmware without causing any problems with your RAID array. I had 2 of these drives in RAID1 array, and I took each drive out and hooked them up to another computer separately and flashed them on a 2nd computer. I don't think you want to do it on the same...

Where do you see this date of Dec 10, 2010 on the drive? Is it on the label on the outside of the drive? Could you post a pic of where you see the manufacture date because I don't have a specific date like that anywhere on my drive.

WIth the Samsung Spinpoint F4 drives, do you still have to update the firmware to fix the data corruption problem? Also, how do you align this drive properly if you are using them in a RAID array? or is it even worth it to align the drives?

I already have backup. That is why I am asking about setting up a RAID array and not how to backup my data.

I'm not really sure if I understand what you are trying to say. How am I risking data loss from an array screwup? Of coarse I will also have backups of my data on a different medium. This RAID array is just for storing the data on my computer. @Danny Bui: Thank you for all your help. Those...

I want to setup a RAID5 array with four 2TB hard drives. I plan on using Samsung Spinpoint F4 2TB drives. What would be a good PCIe card to get for this? My priority here is data safety not speed or performance. I want the safest, most reliable solution to protect my data. I would like to...

I just built a new Sandy Bridge system for around $1300 (see sig). I would highly suggest you get a Crucial C300 64gb SSD. It is the fastest and most reliable SSD out there for $120 price point. It made a huge difference in my overall system speed. The hard drive is one of the biggest...
