I thought that was about regular HDD's or something...

Still, graph

That being said most of the 240gb drives are more than double the price of a 120gb drive, so its a non choice anyway

Yeah but my motherboard is only SATA2 so by RAIDing I can push past the ~250Mb/s limit that imposes.

why run just standard drive setup.

I bought bf3 on the ps3 cause i wanted to play it without having to upgrade my computer just yet, now my computer is starting to die looks like i'll have to upgrade anyway

Do it. PC gets fullsize maps and 64 player games, not to mention the graphics (with decent hardware) will be worlds better. OH, and a keyboard and mouse ;).

P.S. Go to work, you slacker.

also since you lot are talking PCs

got a dell poweredge sitting here (1750 dual processor) want to buy decent sized SCSI drives and more memory for it - WHERE?

also want a set of clients to tie to it. I am trying to centralize a few things on to one machine.

I'm liking boz's idea, which is here, there's supposedly a nandos and a subway, and parking is right out front.

I'm willing to give it a go. Callvote?

Umart sell SCSI HDDs, but dang are they expensive. An option if you don't need the super fast HDD speed would be to get a SATA controller card and some SATA drives. I did that when I got a second hand server a while ago.

What do you mean by client? Just a PC that can communicate with the server, or a dumb terminal eg WYSE?

Ha! I've heard that line before.

I'll believe it when I see it :P

Any time I have said I WOULD come I have been there...My might record is not as good lol

PS when the hell is our next cricket game, I have totally lost track.

DDR ECC ram and SCSI disks? ebay :) might work out cheaper and better to get new server as Xeon cpu in 1750 are not 64bit I think, so you are stuck with either linux or old windows server.

wyse or similar. somthing with enough to start up a screen and basic computing but reliant on external services.

I have 2 of them. both freebies, both run. the SCSI drives already have 2003 R2 on them.

Bonnet pins arrived today.

Not very confident about fitting them due to the cutting required.

Anybody volunteering their skills? Will supply alcohol.....after the cutting is complete :P

Cutting or just drilling? It's not to bad

    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
