  • Ok, ksibast believes he needs to protect the files, let's not argue that point... example - radio stations, for example, guard their compression equipment - the brand, model, & most importantly, the settings. Only the manager has the key to …
  • unless I'm just plain dumb on this one... I don't see the RAID card being that much of a benefit for a RAID 0 at that cost. The Mac Pro hardware is capable of handling or should be able to handle the load. tho, you need OS X to set it up as there i…
  • @Thomas- well, he didn't say exactly which machine he had, so I posted that just in case. non-savvy people sometimes just call them a macbook... but if indeed it's just a 13" macbook, then he'll have to get it fixed.
  • http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377 - if it's the video issue, it should be little or NO cost! you can only put applecare on the first year. after that, you are SOL. an authorized service center MIGHT be able to look into it if not the video.…
  • I agree in part, disagree in part with Karl... I worked for a printing company, they do fulfilment for magazine, etc. the way the shop was laid out, files stored, transfered, even the organization of the stock was all considered to be a "tra…
  • my guess it's the mounting point. you might try terminal commands, a sudo mount of the dmg, but I don't know what the flags would be :-/
  • actually, Tech Tool Pro kinda supports this with the eDrive I think... check that one out maybe.
  • well, netboot is a feature that uses disk images created with OS X server, so really, you CAN boot from an image over the network, but it requires a Mac with OS X Server, from my understanding. cloning to a usb or firewire drive would be an opti…
  • sounds like a pref file or installed app/plugin.
  • no, I wouldn't take any chances on that RAM working. Buy the RAM it's asking for. the 1333 has a bigger cas latency = 9 vs. the 1066 at 7. lower cas time is more of a speed booster overall than the clock speed. so, my feeble math is telling …
  • I wouldn't run raid 0 on everything, that's asking for trouble. you can do a 0+1 if all the drives are the same brand & size (similar models) I would try that before forking out the cash for the raid card or for softraid because that's i…
  • it's probably the fans. most make noise of some sort with the fans running.
  • I have a eSATA card from Rosewill. most, really ALL, of the Silicon Image chipped cards are the same card. SiL3132 if I remember right. the express slot is good for up to 2.5 Gbit/sec, so pretty close to SATAII. Most drives don't run that fast. …
  • if it were me, I would use all 4 drives in the Pro & set it all up as a mirror... or at least 1 pair. unless you feel that the stripe will give you a needed extra boost in speed, then stripe the Raptors... if you had 2 more raptors, i wo…
  • I use a program called ShareTool from yazsoft.com The easy setup feature requires universal plug n play enabled on the router. BUT there is also a manual setup too! logmein.com works ok, but can be a pest to setup too. needs an app to ru…
  • WOW, that's interesting. Does the phone you have now have the pink spot in the headphone jack? UPS might be able to cover some of the damage cost as it was returned damaged, but that's how Apple re-packed it, so your recourse is probably sit…
  • handbrake will also do now movie files, not just dvds. But the newest version only does this & reqires Leopard. handbrake.fr
  • did you ever find it? did you try to install the HP driver pack from the install DVD?
  • this will be under the manual setup in the airport utility. select the base station & click the manual setup button. it's kinda buried, but it's there. under the wireless tab I think.
