Any one know what the db is on AMD stock fan/heatsinks ?
Model in question is a 6000 x2, sink has thermalpipe tech on it. Thinking of
upping the fan and not sure it would be worth spending $30/40. Looking at A
thermaltake Silent 939 k8 think 19db
Thanks

I've been re-bulding my older machines
(with AMD socket A CPUs in them),
using vintage NEW MBs,
AND upgrading the old AMD retail stock fans...
I was amazed at the difference in the sound... (YMMV)...
I did not even get the best (or expensive) fans...
As a matter of fact, with socket A, there
Thanks, I'll go find my reading glasses, again. :)
Interesting. Another link to w2k3 server.

Fred,
I purchased the Thermaltake Big Typhoon for an AMD 64 3700+ San Diego that
was routinely overheating with the stock AMD cooler. With the Big Typhoon, I
routinely ran at 25 degrees C at idle, with high cpu usage, it ran about 35
degrees, and if screaming on a hot summer day, maybe 40
I had a real screaming in an older AMD XP3200+ system that would rattle your
bones. Searched far and wide, but you are right, quiet upgrades are few and
far between. Finally found a source for Evercool HPA-C715 Super Silent Turbo
Cooler Heat Sink and Fan. Took a chance and found it to be quiet and
Duncan,
I am always happy to share my experiences! I am usually more of a lurker on
the list and am happy when I can contribute. And I am enjoying the HDTV and
HDTV as monitor experience. I really shouldn't, because technically, it is a
Christmas Present. But I had to make sure everything worked,
I'm looking for a rock reliable backup program that will allow me to
schedule backups to CD and DVD. Any suggestions?

Of course, quality control is essential. :)
One day I may get to do this QC too!
Best,
Duncan

If you are looking to make backup images of installed OSes, I have been
using Acronis Disk Image tools to backups images of my windows systems for
about a year now. I made a primary image when I first installed and then
once a week Acronis builds a differential for me automatically and I have it
FWIW I use System Guardian ( Standby Disk )
Back up daily to a second HD, fully bootable without having to go thru a
restore. Much more convenient then restoring from server or disk, and faster.
Has saved my bacon more then once ( and my customers ) least amount of downtime

Ready to build my NAS. The m/b is a very old Abit BX6 r2.0 with an Intel
P2-450. And I want it to run headless; like a humming box (appliance) in
the corner! I suspect this puts SATA drives out of class ATM, unless I try
some PATA/SATA adapters. This is possible; but was really planning to
My current NAS is 2 WD 500 gig PATA drives in a D-Link NAS enclosure.
Works very well so far I have them in Raid 0, so only have 500 megs of
storage, but they were so inexpensive, it doesn't really bother me to
waste a whole drive. I quit using tapes long ago for backing up my
stuff. :)
You're going to need an add-in PCI card anyway. The 440BX in that BX6 board
only supported ATA33, and didn't support 48bit LBA. Hence, no drives 128GB
are supported. The OS may be able to override this, but would you trust it?
Plus, assuming you're using gigabit, your interface is going to limit
I've had no troubles in 6 months using Naslite on a p3-866 440bx w/4 750gb
drives as a nas.
