<0> 8051 is a 20+ yr old microcontroller and no one gives a ****
<0> companies other than the inventor intel keep extending and improving it
<0> there is like at least 30 clone makers
<0> a lot of usb flash drives use a 8051 for the i/o engine
<1> http://erek.necrotec.com/system.html
<2> why do you paste that crappy system all the time
<3> i'm going to put my sysinfo on a timer
<2> yeah do it but like this:
<2> /timer bla bla /msg erek <system ingo>
<2> info even
<1> Sc0rpius, it's been updated
<1> Sc0rpius, i got a new drive
<4> ****y
<4> you need a maxtor 300g/8mb scsi
<2> no
<4> er sata
<2> actually that was a good move
<2> the Maxtor Atlas
<2> though I would have got a WD Raptor instead
<4> atlas?
<2> but a 15K RPM 73 GB drive as a system drive is excellent
<5> maxtor? eeeeeeeeeek
<5> oh
<5> the scsi
<2> I would have got a 15K RPM SATA drive for the system drive
<4> you guys are ****ed in the head
<4> why would you want a loud *** 15k rpm
<2> I'm gonna buy a new drive but I won't get a 15K RPM drive since I have patience I can wait
<2> I need more space than speed
<2> dude Raccoon`
<4> the 300 gig 8 mb cache sata is faster and quieter
<6> there is no 15k rpm for sata is there?
<2> the speed difference is EXTREMELY HUGE
<2> the Windows load in seconds
<5> read some articles on storage review -- it looks like the raptor sata drives are better for desktop usage
<5> aside from the noise issues
<5> a single atlas scisi drive kinda defeats the purpose. That is a drive desiged for an array
<5> there is no atlas sata.
<6> I use rapors in all my hdds
<2> everything loads faster.
<6> storage review owns
<2> yeah I would have got a Raptor.
<5> Sc0rpius - i have a raptor.
<5> I don't even see the XP logo when I boot
<2> but I'm not gonna buy a 15K RPM I'm gonna get a 300 GB as main drive or so since I really need more space than speed.
<2> heh
<5> i see a vague flicker before the login screen. :)
<2> tell that to Raccoon` :)
<4> i agree with getting a 300 gig sata
<2> it depends dude
<5> A single raptor for a system drive and then a standard 7200rpm drive with a lot of space is good
<2> depends on your priorities.
<1> Raccoon`, it's not loud
<7> can anyone tell me what they think of AMD Semprons ?
<4> ****ing $125 too
<1> Raccoon`, Fluid Dynamic Bearings
<2> sadly enough, my priorities right now are space.
<2> Free Disk Space: (C: 3.53GB/74.52GB (4.73%)) - (F: 1.12GB/38.16GB (2.95%)) - (Total: 4.65GB/112.68GB (4.13%))
<4> that's almost 40 cents a gig
<2> I don't have enough free space.
<1> Raccoon`, Fluid Dynamic Bearings
<4> same with the sata
<1> Raccoon`, the drive does 97MB/Sec
<4> wow
<1> Raccoon`, http://erek.necrotec.com/xfer.jpg
<1> Raccoon`, http://erek.necrotec.com/seek.jpg
<2> yeah it's a good drive
<2> but Maxtor... bad choice pal
<1> Sc0rpius, why?
<2> Seagate bought Maxtor
<1> Sc0rpius, it's the fastest drive out there
<2> I don't have good experience with Maxtors
<5> if you have the money for raid, go for it, but if you're just a normal desktop user. . . raids quickly become inefficent for what you're really trying to do
<4> wtf is wrong with maxtor
<4> they have the best reputation
<2> haha
<5> you're not really going to exploit a scsi array to its fullest unless you're doing server related things such as large databses, a very large domain tree or any other thing
<8> how do i add a picture to a site with html?
<4> greatest RMA department, no questions asked
<2> and why they sold the frustrated company to Seagate then Raccoon`?
<2> http://www.seagatemaxtor.com/
<2> I have had NOT good experience with Maxtor.
<4> Snarsh, google. that's a kiddy question.
<5> well maybe it has the most practice. :)
<5> they were just bought by seagate
<2> yup
<2> so there won't be anymore Maxtors in like a year
<4> because seagate has lots of money and ****ty drives.
<2> just like there won't be IBM Thinkpads anymore.
<4> seagate realizes that maxtor quality would improve their profits
<2> anyway
<9> silver sharpies own
<2> I insist:
<4> that's what happens when a company diversifies
<5> Maxtor's latest desktop SATA drives tend to be slower and less reliable than their counterparts. Their previous generation IDE drives were decent.
<7> can someone tell me the diff. b/w amd athlon and sempron
<2> *I* have had not good experience with Maxtors.
<2> if they work for you, cool
<9> look ***y on these black memorex cdrs
<4> find me a review with this drive that says it's slow. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822144186
<7> I have a duron in my comp now, 700 mhz baby
<4> MaXLine Plus pwns
<2> anyway I like all my HDDs to be WD
<4> of my pile of dead drives from customers
<4> WD is the tallest
<4> though, I admit they're the most fun to take magnets and motors from
<7> WD owns man
<2> yeah they're the best.
<7> never had a bad one
<7> and 8mb cache to boot
<4> maxtor has had 8mb cache longer than anyone else
<4> over a year now
<4> almost 2
<1> Raccoon`, do you like my purchase?
<4> erek, you're lame.
<1> Raccoon`, how come
<4> you need to find real flesh and blood friends and stop scraping for my attention
<1> ...
<4> dot dot dot
<10> Actual, biological, disease carrying people? ewww...
<4> anyway
<7> the problem is, is that most people don't give a rats *** about computers
<4> this ****ing 300 gig maxline plus has 16 MB CACHE
<7> thats why most people come here
<2> Raccoon`: that doesn't make them any faster than a 15K RPM drive
<4> it doesn't make a sound
<2> remember the conversation is about SPEED
<2> remember the conversation is about SPEED
<2> we don't care about noise or space right now
<4> i like having my computer in the living room so I can watch movies and chat without turning up the volume
<2> we'll care about that in another conversation.
<2> all my drives are really really quite
<2> all of them WD of course
<4> noise is the most important feature of any and all hardware
<2> heh
<2> well that's too you
<7> movies like "broke back men"
<3> WD has pretty much always been quiet
<11> ...
<3> funkmaste, bareback mountain?
<4> if it's loud, or hot and requires loud fans, then it's too ****ing overclocked, and inherently WEAK.
<11> < Raccoon`> noise is the most important feature of any and all hardware
<7> oh yeah, thats it
<11> SAys whom?
<2> anyway if my drives were noisy I wouldn't notice them anyway with my Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum plugged into my Sony Home Theater 5.1
<11> Wow
<4> i can watch movies at 4am without having to turn up the volume above -20db
<7> I just bought a sony HTIB for 189 and it rocks! Ladies love it
<2> I watch movies at 4 am at full volume **** off neighbours
