Long file names in folders upon folders upon folders f**ks up everything.

Had a dude with a file that was like a sentence, which he put in like 40 sub folders... Oh god. That was a nightmare.

try tell that to the doctors and nurses mate.....they do that all the time....trying to fix something that they have "lost" is impossible lol

Abe, do you get many SSD's coming back for warranty claims?

None, as we don't stock them, as they aren't main stream yet, however we can order them in for you, but warranty would be a real pain.

WTF - SSDs aren't mainstream? Given they have been commercially available for nearly a year and MSY sell out every time they get a shipment in, I would suggest otherwise.

I can however understand all PC shops not wanting to stock them - suddenly all the pos 3 year old PCs that are now a bit slow are sped up significantly with the addition of an SSD drive. Millions of people worldwide will not need to upgrade for another X years due to how much faster they make a PC. Even an old single core XP4000+ absolutely flies with Windows 7 on an SSD.

Oh yeah, I have some PC gear up for sale too guys: 1 x Acer core 2 duo 2 x 1.86Ghz CPU, 1Gb ram, 80Gb SATA HDD PC with 17" LCD $300, Brand new CD Burners (NOT DVD) $10, 8Gb Sandisk Extreme III CF Card $40, 19" AOC CRT monitor $50, brand 1.5 inch photo frame with internal memory $10

They purely aren't mainstream yet, they are still in their infancy as they are still trying to get better access times, price to gigabyte is shocking, they are purely for performance enthusiasts at the moment, until they become better priced per gigabyte.

Kingston SNV425-S2/64GB = $270

Kingston SNVP325-S2/64GB = $331

Intel SSDSA2MH160G2C1 = $933

Seagate 500gb = $85

WD 640GB 64mb Black = $121

WD Raptor 450gb 32mb = $448

WD Raptor 250gb 16mb = $240

As you can see, price to gigabyte, SSD's are not mainstream, UNLESS you are going for performance, then they are for enthusiasts.

anyone know who is working @ modbury IT warehouse with a black R34

I do :D, I found out today but ringing up and asking, lol. The owners name is Michael, he used to work at the Blair Athol Store till it shut, and used to drive a Silver one apparently, now drives the Black one. Other then that I don't know too much, as the person I spoke too doesn't know too much about cars, all they know is they use petrol and brum.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
