    PCI-X MB Dead - Need to transfer 3Ware 9550SX-8LP RAID 5 Array

    All-- thanks for the help. I found someone nearby with a older P5 motherboard with a PCI-X slot. Was able to get it configured and up. I think the lesson (which we all know, but don't always follow) is that RAID 5 isn't a backup system, and that redundant backups are always needed.

    PCI-X MB Dead - Need to transfer 3Ware 9550SX-8LP RAID 5 Array

    Unfortunately, it is one of the cards that do not. It was the first thing I tried. It *will* work in a 64 bit PCI slot. But of the eight other machines I have, none have a 64 bit slot. Thanks for the response.

    PCI-X MB Dead - Need to transfer 3Ware 9550SX-8LP RAID 5 Array

    My Tyan S2882 has died, and it was the only PCI-X board I owned. I was running 3Ware 9550SX-8LP with a RAID 5 array that I now need to transfer. The card is a PCI-X, and I've got nothing to install it to. I really need some suggestions. The first question is this: if I get a new card...

    SATA2 with Laptop SATA Controller?

    Well.... I fried the motherboard while attempting to get the drive in. Just a heads up: Sony only provides you easy access to replacing the memory on this model. To reach the hard drive enclosure, you have to remove the keyboard, front face plate and touch pad. Not sure if I short circuited...

    SATA2 with Laptop SATA Controller?

    I would love to install the SAMSUNG 2.5" 32GB SATA II drive in my Sony VAIO VGN-N395E. Of course, I'm not looking for full SATA2 performance out of this drive. I'm more wondering if it will function as a SATA device. Or do I need a true, older SATA device? Any input?

    Lots of Power, Nothing to use it on...

    Sorry, should have posted text too... That's the only reason I posted it. Was a cool article. I always thought the large benchmark hit came with ECC, with a smaller one for registered. It's the opposite. I have always prefered to not use either.

    Intel and AMD will be obsolete tommorrow

    It will be adopted mainstream for certain hardware, no question. The PS3 is enough right there. However, what these press releases are NOT telling us about is the amount of required bandwidth to create a virtual machine between separate hardware. Think about it this way: it is possible to...

    Intel and AMD will be obsolete tommorrow

    One more thing, this isn't the first time this has been done.... look up the old modular computing from Sun Microsystems called the "Lego Project" or something along those lines. Also, these types of systems are available now with high-bandwidth FDDI links between machines.

    Intel and AMD will be obsolete tommorrow

    First, I'm not a ney-sayer. The technology could turn out to be quite impressive. However, making claims that it will change the world "tomorrow" and put Intel and AMD out of business is absurd. As an earlier poster stated, only time will tell what falls out. Which brings me to my second...

    And registered doesn't? I thought both added latency. Also, do you disable in the BIOS? If the memory controller is integrated on the CPU, how is that possible? This would be really cool to learn about.

    Theoretical System specs... with a few gaps.

    My point was this: while many people say they will be rendering a lot, they end up playing around with it, and using the workstation as a regular computer. If that is the case, the user might as well purchase regular consumer video cards, which will render just fine whether SLI is utilized or not.

    Theoretical System specs... with a few gaps.

    Is this for a lot of 3D work and the occasional game, or a moderate amout of games and some 3D work? If the latter, then use SLI in that board instead of a high end rendering card.
