Re: [H] Disk Imaging with Acronis

I've only done two tests with making the images thus far, and none recovering. What I've noticed was it took a substantially longer amount of time to do it in windows than to just load up via bootable DVD and image it that way. On Tue, Jul 20, 2010 at 4:06 PM, Gary wrote: > First you don't have

Re: [H] Tower HD LED wire does not match MB HD LED Pins

These things are standard even when you don't get what you expect ;-). Are you sure that that is the HD LED cable? Usually 3 positions is reserved for the Power/Suspend/Sleep indicator. But anyways, if you pull hard on the wires you will pull out the wires as the pins latch into the connecto

Re: [H] Disk Imaging with Acronis

First you don't have to image from bootable DVD (unless you want too), you can do it in windows. When installed Win7 it made two partitions if you did a format. It put system files in a separate partition. > -Original Message- > From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware- >

[H] Disk Imaging with Acronis

Has anyone ever used Acronis disk imaging? I have the home 2010 version, and have never really done any imaging. I have some spare hard drives and have been meaning to try and test this out. I have a fresh install of Win7 with a few programs. Everything is on C: there is no other partition. I wan

[H] Tower HD LED wire does not match MB HD LED Pins

I have a tower with a HD LED cable that has a 3 prong plug. Actually its two prongs but the middle hole does not have a wire connected to it. The motherboard has 2 pins for the HD LED wire. The 3 hole plug obviously does not fit into the two pins on the motherboard, so this machine has no HD LED w

Re: [H] My 2010 Gamer PC Build

Rather annoying situation with this 5870. My new PC ran fine with the GTX280 but was giving me a grayish screen with vertical bars at default settings. I lower the clock and memory speed down a bit and its much better. I sent the card back, it took them 2 days to get the card to fail their test so

I get 90+ MB/s transfers from my freebsd box running Samba to my win7 box. On Tue, Jul 20, 2010 at 08:17:03AM -0500, Greg Sevart wrote: > I'm just hoping that SMB 2.0 gets more baked in Samba and included in > FreeNAS/OpenFiler sooner rather than later. No SMB 2 support is a > showstopper for me

I've actually used FreeNAS a good bit and love it if you want to roll your own. Julian On Tue, Jul 20, 2010 at 9:46 AM, Naushad, Zulfiqar < zulfiqar.naus...@siemens.com> wrote: > DroboFS FTW! > > > -Original Message- > From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com > [mailto:hardware-boun

Re: [H] Which NAS Devices?

Openfiler is, imho, junk. Out of all the nas I've tried its the most unreliable thing out there. Its hardware supports suck and its interface is poor. How's that for a review. I do agree on smb2. I'm hopeful freenas .8 will include. Sent via BlackBerry -Original Message- From:

Re: [H] Which NAS Devices?

I'm just hoping that SMB 2.0 gets more baked in Samba and included in FreeNAS/OpenFiler sooner rather than later. No SMB 2 support is a showstopper for me for those projects and every other 3rd party SMB/CIFS implementation. With SMB 2, every Windows machine I have with a decently fast drive/array

Re: [H] Which NAS Devices?

Personally I like freenas. I run a whs at home as well. Id do either way ahead of iomega/netgear/etc nas devices. For one simple reason: both of those give me big booming alerts on drive status and allow me to backup etc. Meanwhile I've got at least 2 qnaps and I've had tons of the iomega

Ya, but you're asking for a standalone unit... check out the Thecus N7700 NAS and QNAP TS-509 Pro NAS whle you're at it. Julian On Tue, Jul 20, 2010 at 1:19 AM, Bryan Seitz wrote: > Yeah, horrible overpriced. I can build a server for less. The 6 bay is > $999!!! > > On Mon, Jul 19, 2010 a
