Running for example 10 virtual XP environments I think I'll have a lot more small read/writes then large dumps. Will one larger sized drive handle that better then a couple smaller ones divided among the virtual machines? No hassle in files distribution here.

I can distribute my virtual machines among the drives so I don't think raid is necessary/will give any performance gains. Should I got with a couple smaller drives then? Which would you recommend? Maybe just add another intel drive?

I'm running a bit low on space on my Intel 160GB so I'm looking for a new SSD in the 250GB range. Cant really wait for the new Intel drives to show up, so I'm kind of fuzzy what to choose right now. Crucial RealSSD C300 256GB seems to get good reviews. Any competition to that? Main use is...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a towar case that can fit my Z8PE-D12 motherboard (SSI EEB 3.61 format - 12" x 13"). Theres quite a lot of cases that can do EATX format (having enough room for the bords space wise), but lack the screw mounting options. Only found the Silverstone Raven 01 compactible...

For about 150-200$ you can hunt down a Dell E153FPTC (or newer E157FPT) 15" on ebay.

Thanks to everyone for the recommendations, I went with both :-)

What about Active@ Kill Disk? "Version 5.0 build 5.599 adds new Wipe function that wipes out all unused space on existing drives, not touching existing data."

Hello, can you guys recommend some software to erase date from a hard drive completely? I want to sell a laptop without any leftover from my work there. Would be nice if it wouldn't harm the system files so I won't need to set it up again.

LG. Philips has a LCD factory for sure. Don't know if they supply the panels for HP. My LP2465 shows "Product of China".

In Poland you can get the LP2480zx directly from HP for about £1500 (w/o VAT) or from a third party seller for around £1000 (w/o VAT).

So check what the card is (GSM or CDMA) and try it yourself.

You need an WWAN mini pci-e modem installed inside (next to the WiFi card). Check Dell Wireless 5520 for example.

Thats quite obvious, since Intels new Centrino platform should be out soon. Engadget already profiled Dell's new E-series Latitudes, there will be something from the Precision line as well I guess. I'm hoping they will do something with WUXGA and 2 hard drive bays!

Fell free to share yours. Maybe if they ware in the same machine the scores would match, but they're not. Still, Quadro cards are foundy mostly in higher priced workstation models with other components being mostly top of the line, so the overall test scores can vary.

If only it had 2 disk options... If you click on a specific card you can see results in various laptops, I guess those are based on in-house tests they make.
