there is a lot of mis-information here, I'm sure the Unknown-One just had it mixed up for a moment... i didn't want someone to read this and buy a bunch of stuff , so let me correct it. 1. getting a mSATA SSD and a pci-e to mini-pci-e adapter will simply not work... although they will...

saw these:

I live in boston near harvard square, could i take a look at it? and pickup instead of shipped?

any dead pixels? why not get two more of these?

I would give a strong recommendation to LG LED smart TVs, 2011/2012. I got an IPS 42-incher and the screen quality is great, but I am not an IQ expert. The LG netflix app used to suck, but they have continually updated it to where it's now pretty good. LG (unlike all? other mfgrs)...

that's one way to look at it... no motherboard should 'hang' just because two screens are plugged in.

just fyi, my experience with the DH77DF was strange: i have 2 LCDs 1. Apple LED 27-inch via mini-DP with mini-dp to dp passive adapter 2. Dell LED 24-inch via DVI if they are both plugged into this board, the displays will not turn on when the computer does. if i unplug either display, the...

I just got one of these things from bottom line telco, they seem to have them in-stock.. also beach audio seems to have them, but i think they are the same company, or at least share the same warehouses

the DH77DF has 5 sata (including 1x esata) and 1 mpcie for wifi (presumably) and 1 pcie asus has a Z77-I deluxe http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1677993 has 6 sata (including 2x esata) [which you could easily route back in with esata -> sata cables] and 1 mpcie slot including a...

why don't the raid controller mfgrs make utilities for this stuff?

oh thanks a lot, I'll take a look and try it out, and report back here.

but again, even if fedora can see the raid array, it'll see a failed array with no good data, since even the raid firmware thinks there are 2 drives missing, does it have FakeRAID tools to manipulate what drives are members of what array? i found this, appears to be a very similar problem...

At the moment I'm less concerned with how it happened, and more concerned with what to do now, unless the former helps me do the latter.

Well it behaves exactly the same now with the new/old controller, and everything else on both controllers are fine.

so I'm in ubuntu 10.10 now, and no there is no raid volume, keep in mind this is not like a windows driver issue, the raid controller's firmware/bios lists the array as failed, and lists 2 drives as members, and the other two as non-members, so switching OSs wont magically make the array normal...

thanks i'll try that and report back.

meaning what exactly? as i said i put the drives back into the origional motherboard, installed the origional version of the drivers, and it didn't fix it.

ok so ive had a 4x2TB(samsung HD204UI w/firmware patch) raid5 array working normally for about a month. It was in a h57 gigabyte motherboard using the intel raid with windows 7 x64. Today I got an intel h67 motherboard, so I upgraded the intel raid drivers to 10.1.0.1008 from 9.6.0.1014...

seems strange there is a different version of a hdd for the Japanese market, I've never heard of that before.

Trying to understand here, which file should i use? F4EG.exe or HD240UI_JP.exe or BOTH? if I should do both, what order?

any dead or on/off whatever pixels?

Danny, while its cool that a few people have mentioned stuff about the KAW, is there an actual article about it somewhere? I don't mean people in forums talking... or mentioned in other articles... I mean something published specifically about this device/issue?

is there an actual review or test that i can see, /url?

yup, thats all true. still, 1 guy doing a funky test with some weird equipment is enough to convince you? I agree its possible that the kaw is wrong/bad with apfcs or anything else, i also i agree its possible my system+lcd uses more than 100W under light use.. but more evidence points...

and as to my original post in this thread, why is it hard to believe my system uses 100W... look here: http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=3641&p=8 those systems were using way under 100W and they had a GTX280, i have amuch more power efficient in idle video card, the 5750, my...

well the two links i gave previously. i agree that the test from the hardocp dude suggests there is something funky going on... but the other two show it to be fine, under more normal/direct tests... Given those tests i'd have to lean on the side of it being fine.. but another test would be...

haha well everything plugged into the wall is powered by AC, many devices convert it to DC at various points... I'm unconvinced the KAW is significantly inaccurate. The real test is the obvious test... plug in a computer, do some benchmark or whatever, look at power usage... from the...

of all the sources I saw, only 1 didn't use AC directly the wall, and only one test suggested the unit had problems... coincidence that it was the same tester?

thats the same picture from the link earlier in this thread, its not another test, its the same one, not new info. ive seen multiple independant tests confirm the kill-a-watt is good to within a couple percent in normal usage (AC from wall, load normal) ive only seen one test suggest...

this does not jive with other reports of the KAW being pretty accurate at the wattages in question... http://www.jonnyguru.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2695 http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine-archive/march-2009/appliances/energy-monitors/overview/energy-monitors-ov.htm what is that...

the kill-a-watt is usually within a couple percent, especially at loads around 100W. http://www.jonnyguru.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2695 consumer reports the test you linked to is a bit wacky If i understand it right he is altering the AC with a transformer before using the Kill-A-Watt to...

you guys are hilarious, my computer AND 24" LCD user under 100W (from the wall) in normal use including 1080p video and such... my computer: i7 860 on a P55 mobo 8GB of DDR3 1333 memory ATI 5750 sata dvdRW usb flash card reader/writer 80GB intel x25-m G2 SSD with your setup you will need a...

g-skill isn't even on intel's list of validated dimms for p55.

yeah in some web-apps the difference is significant... that means the web app can be more responsive, yielding a more pleasant user-experience... if speed didnt matter... well this is silly, of course it matters. that also means saving time, and saving energy by using less cpu-time...

in modern web apps like gmail, google docs, facebook etc... javascript is starting to slow things down noticeably on some browsers.

great thread! thought u guys might wanna see my analysis of raid on the ichxR series controllers http://www.alternativerecursion.info/?p=31

I have written two articles recently that are pertinent to your task: RAID: http://www.alternativerecursion.info/?p=31 Gigabit Ethernet: http://www.alternativerecursion.info/?p=48
