Maybe I'm being paranoid, I thought it strange that the 2 at home ran 16-18 degrees cooler (using the same software for monitoring) than the 2 here at office. They both have the same cooling setup and both have drives stacked in bays above each other. Maybe i should seperate them with an empty...

I'll take a look at those coolers. So... larger, faster drives do run hotter? How much hotter is acceptable?

I have 2 80g Raptors on my home computer that run at 31-34 celsius. I have 2 WD 320g in a raid array at office that run from 41-50 celsius which I understand is high. 1. Is there a way to install a fan or heatsink or something to cool them down? 2. Does the size of the drive, rpm's, etc...

Over the years I have used Norton, McAfee, Kapersky, Panda, CA, and PC Security Shield (aka The Shield). Norton and CA crashed my computer when I installed them so I would NEVER recommend them. McAfee is a resource hog although it has some nice features, but it allowed a virus to get hru which...

I have an external hdd I use to store nothing but data on, it is not a boot-able drive. I am concerned about it getting stolen and all my data being accessible with ease, so I want to password protect it (when it's connected or disconnected to my computer). All I can seem to find is software...

I setup Windows Server 2003 R2 on a machine last fall to use as server for a new store. I had it running just fine but now I can't remember the password si I tried to reinstall but Windows says it can't find a HDD. I assume it's because of the raid array. Any help would be greatly appreciated...

USB is enabled in bios. All other USB devices work. If I leave my old ps2 keyboard pluged in my usb keyoard works. I don't know if it makes any difference but I noticed that the keyboard is USB 1.0. I don't think it does because new USB cards/ports accept any version of USB, current and past...

I have 2 sata drives that were configured to mirror, and no longer would boot. So, i inserted a bootable drive and made it the boot drive. The problem is the sata drives don't show up in windows explorer so i can view their contents and run virus scan on them. Any suggestions?

I had 2 drives, both wd sata setup to mirror. In my computer I saw only one drive so I assumed thats normal sinc everything work fine. A few days ago I added a 3rd (wd 80g ide that I couldn't boot from anymore (the reason for the new system) so I could get files from it. Today my raid utility...

thanks alot, i had found my address book but didn't know what extension to look for to get emails.

I installed windows on a new hdd and need to get emails off my old hdd that I couldn't repair or restore windows on. The drive is accessible as a slave :clap: BTW - I am using Outlook 2003

I found the problem. I removed everything from mobo & started plugging back in 1 by 1. The cpu shut it down as soon as I hit the power so I pulled it and got the old magnifying glass out. The factory had 2 pins in one spot on the socket and one of them was touching another one next to it. Looks...

Thanks, I'll take a look around.
