I wonder when MSI, Asus etc. are going to start pushing out high-resolution laptops, just to follow the trend :P. (Regards to MKP thread)

On another note, Denmark tomorrow, Dreamhack the 16th!

I'm going to live without internet for 8 hours, possibly more =(

It's....beautiful!

Just wait, one day soon enough, I'll have more HDDs.... I already have 3. >_>

In the end I am hoping to have 2 SSDs in my computer and 6 HDDs. ;p

[BicycleMafioso]

If we count notebook drives and internal drives, I have in rotation

1x 80GB HDD 3.5" WD Caviar drive (no colour! IDE)
1x 250~GB HDD 2.5" Manufacturer unknown
1x 320GB HDD 2.5" 1x WD Scorpio ??
1x 320GB HDD 2.5" Hitachi 5400 RPM
1x 500GB HDD 2.5" Seagate Momentus 5400.6
1x 60GB SSD 2.5" Corsair Force F60
1x 160GB SSD 2.5" Intel 320-series
1x 1TB HDD 3.5" Samsung F3 Spinpoint
1x 2TB HDD 3.5" Samsung F4EG EcoGreen

Whatever works, works, right?

I have... 4 HDDs actually. 3 external (one is for work), one internal. I got 4 USB memory sticks that I use actively as well. Oh, and a SSD.

Total storage capacity... ~2900GB.

(And I have a dead 200GB drive as well.)

[DeltrusDisc]

oh yeah I do have my external-USB3.0 based HDD.

So to list it all off:

1x WD Caviar Blue 80GB (not in use atm) 7200RPM
1x WD Caviar Blue 600GB in computer 7200RPM
1x WD Caviar Green 1.5TB in computer 5900RPM
1x Toshiba 500GB USB3.0 E-HDD
1x Seagate 1TB Barracuda 7200RPM in computer
1x Crucial m4 128GB SSD in computer

Total of about 3,800GB of space. lol

Total of about 3,800GB of space. lol

Remember, it's not the total size that matters - it's how you utilize it.

[DeltrusDisc]

I didn't say how much is used or not now did I?

[BicycleMafioso]

*looks down to 4 690 GB of storage, looks up again*

Oh..

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

I only have just over 2TB of storage space :/
128 - SSD
500 - HDD
1500 - external

Tee hee I remembered a recent conversation I had with a not-so-techy person which went along the lines of "I'm upgrading my computer!" to which I asked "neat, how so?"..."upgrading to 1tb drive space!"
Well he's right since it's technically an upgrade, but I had forgotten how long it had been since I had last heard someone refering to additional harddrives being upgrades :S

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

Heh, my old computer lasted for 3 years on a 300GB hard drive (I got my external about a month before the flooding in Thailand and Taiwan)

[inux94]

I've got about 3TB with me, some old harddrives, there was an IDE drive laying around but I didn't take it with me.

about 1.5TB from old external harddrivess

[Poppasan]

I've been trying to get the ATH-AD700 for a while now. I can't bother ordering it from the finnish shop that has it overpriced by 150€. And now I have tried ordering it from Amazon.co.uk but no avail! My address is invalid

I'm considering getting a backplate for my reference 7970.







I wonder which one would look the best in my build. I'm leaning towards the first one (obviously with "Graphics" spelled out correctly).

[BicycleMafioso]

Dislike backplates. :| I'd rather see a sexy black PCB.

[DeltrusDisc]

My Raphics are far superior to yours, Marest! /hehe

Well, looks like I'm getting a free i7-920 or something Gateway computer from a friend. :P She and her bf both replaced their current rigs with new i5-3570K CPUs and ASRock Z77 Ex4 MoBos and got this bloody beastly RAM! O_O

I am jelly now - but I must say, I am excited to run two computers and have fun networking and stuff. lol

The Gateway computer I'm getting: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...017&CatId=5140

The 4850 also still works and has an Arctic Cooling Twin cooler on it. :O

File server weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

Would those backplates work without a waterblock on the gpu?

[inux94]

Boohoo >:( my Wintel SSD died after under an hour's usage of my new computer.
/sigh
