I'm having a similar issue on my MSI GTX460. I get weird Artifacting across the screen in the shape of a green or red squiggly lines. This started happening to me after my screen went blank, reset, then showed a message in windows stating that my Driver had crashed and was rebooted. I then...

A friend of mine accidentally deleted photos she wanted from her sd card. She's tried using the program "recuva" to recover them but with no luck. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for the response. If TLER is not required for software raid, does that mean any drive can be used in software raid? (i.e. Western Digital WD20EARS would work) If the above is true, why do you in particular recommend the Hitachi?

I'm trying to build an Ubuntu Server box primarily for media streaming/file serving and some light development. I'd like to set up a software raid 5 array with 4 or 5 2TB drives. However, I can't tell which drives are able to do Raid and which are not (this is after following the boards and...

So are the Hitachi 5K3000's the only option for a cheap, green linux Software RAID5 array?

Thanks this was helpful.

I'm thinking I'll go with the same setup as you (no hardware raid). Thanks a lot for the help. Also, wow...I had no idea the hot swap adapters would be so expensive. Is there a lot of hardware built into that thing?

So it sounds like the Mini P180 is the way to go. Do you have any recommendations on the 5 in 3 hot swap adapters? And a good Raid card?

I'm looking for a good case for a home media/development server I am setting up. I'm putting in an Athlon II x4 635 w/ a microATX mobo. I need a case that can support 4-6 hard drives (6 is the maximum on the board, 4 is what I suspect I'll end up actually using). It'd be great if those...

This thread is hilarious. I love how all the OP's comments were editted out but you can read them all in the quotes. :) OP, you should google "In-order architecture" and "Out of order architecture". That concept alone will illuminate why atom is inferior to core 2. There are multiple...

Thanks for the response. Even though the 1600 speed isn't native, all ddr3 1600 will be supported but will run at a lower speed, correct? Will there ever be a complication from doing so?

I recently purchased an MSI Motherboard and it says it supports "DDR3-1600 (O.C.), DDR3-1333, DDR3-1066, DDR3-800". I'm unsure what the "(O.C.)" means. Will it natively support DDR3-1600? I have a pair of these lying around will they work...

This is likely a dumb question, but would a i5-750 @ stock bottleneck a GTX 460? Is overclocking required?

Hey Archaea, what BIOs version are you running to use that Q9300? I'm planning on upgrading to a quad core but I wasn't sure if it would be compatible.

Thanks. I'll stick with what I've got.
