Bump -- added nanoHD, Archer A7, moto cable modem, RAM and PSU.

bump, hopefully rules haven't changed in a decade...

Hey, just wondering if you got my PM.

Yeah, I guess I just missed out on this. Would be a great replacement for the CF card I have running my router right now.

Antec EA650 on sale for $40 AR + Free Ship. Solid no frills budget supply that won't catch fire. No modular, no sleeved cables, but it'll get the job done.

So my venerable Icemat has begun to show its age, and looks like the SteelSeries SX is the new sexy beast on the block. Unfortunately, seems like no one carries it now except for a few weird retailers that show up on Google Shopping. Did this get replaced by something else?

Please PM me if you do decide to part out, I'm looking for a bigger (and still fast) games / apps drive for my box to replace my 6400AAKS.

It's neat to have a ES CPU, but outside from that, not really worth it, especially paying those prices. We have legit ones here since we're an ISV, but the novelty wore off for me after a few months; just another CPU that just doesn't happen to be available to everyone yet.

Still waiting for mine, Egg Saver is sloooooooooooow. (but hey it's free and I'm don't mind waiting for them)

Lots of people have spent a lot of money on various cards in the forum and have found working expander configurations that you'll find here. Personally, I don't...

5 months and going strong with that option here. Totally network bandwidth limited, performance is great. 12 2TB Barrcuda LPs in 2 6-drive RAID-Z2s, with a 3rd one coming "soon", when funds are ready. (Either 6 more Barracudas or 6 5K3000s). The hardest thing to do is remembering to use zpool-12...
