Is the "L" a bong? :D

Cereal Killer is that you?

Posted...hope I win ;)

Mine...started with an old Centuri Track & Field cabinet that I got for free:

ahh the good old days of the $10k desk...username has changed since then but the memory lives on :D

Yeah, but what does it tell you when the company ignores the problem for several months, and deletes posts relating to the matter from their official support forums? The bad press regarding the drives blew up over the past week, and I think that's what made Seagate finally act. This problem...

Seagate has finally released a firmware upgrade for the defective drives. The problem is in fact a firmware bug: http://seagate.custkb.com/seagate/crm/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=207931 I'll be calling them tonight for the firmware update for my six 1TB drives since it doesn't look like...

Seagate's warranty is down to 3 years now? What a bunch of BS. I had been a Seagate user for approximately the last 10 years, and I have three computers still running 80GB Seagates that must be about 6 years old, and they're still going strong. That track record inspired me to spend about...

I can at least confirm this line is true, since that user was me (search my previous posts regarding putting the drives in a RAID 5 array using an Areca ARC-1222 card): "One user in particular reports having set up a 6 TB drive array and over the course of 1 month having half the drives...

Alright, so sounds like it's just a flaw of PVA. I'd like to switch to IPS and it looks like the HP LP2475w is the monitor to get for that technology. I have a center channel speaker however and the base of the HP looks like its just too big...I'd have to put the center channel way out in front...

lol...see what I mean? :D I've actually exchanged the monitor twice now through Dell. The first monitor I received had a very bad brightness gradient from left to right, and the new one (which I have now) didn't have that issue, however it does have the issue I mentioned above regarding being...

I have a Dell 2408WFP 24" monitor, and towards the center of the screen there is a blueish hue that I see when looking directly at it (most noticeable when viewing a pure white screen). This causes colors in this area to be darker than the surrounding areas. At first I thought this was a...

The ARC-1220 came with eight SATA cables so that's why I was curious. Are AMCC/3Ware cables compatible with Areca cards as well? They're a little less expensive and are the longer length that I need for my case (0.6 meters): http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?name=CBLSFFCF06

Great, thanks again for taking the time to test! Just spoke with eWiz and they are allowing me to return the ARC-1220 with no restocking fee as a result of purchasing the ARC-1222 (essentially an exchange). Does the retail ARC-1222 come with cables (I'll need SAS to SATA breakouts I guess)? I...
