I have recently purchased a Maxtor 200 GB size IDE (ATA133) with an external hard disk enclosure, and attach it to a notebook via fire wire (IEEE1394) connection. To overcome the capacity barriers, I have enabled 48-bit LBA by installing SP1 and "Maxtor Big Drive Enabler" in my Win XP. However,...

200gb Maxtor Hard Drive Corrupted? by Chris Bales
My 200gb Hard Drive has been acting up lately and anytime I even access files on it through explorer, it freezes up my computer. I was told that my harddisk may be corrupted, but I do not know what to do about it. If at all humanly possible, I'd like to retrieve the data on that hard drive...

24-pin Power Supplies: What's going on? by aether
Why aren't retailers specifying whether the power supply is 24-pin or not? Check out newegg.com; there's no way to tell. I've gone to multiple online stores, and they simply don't list it. I'd like to find a list of which power supplies are ATX 2.0 (24-pin). As of now, I can only guess, or attempt...

25 GHz machine by Clifford535
I have some computationally intense work to do, and I would like to know where I could buy a computer that would run at the equivalent of, say, 25 GHz. It would have to be already built since I don't have the skills to build one from scratch. I would want to run an app that is designed for a...

2GB Harddrive Recognition Limit by Aaron
I'm messing around with an old Pentium II 233Mhz PC, and put a Seagate Barracuda 20GB harddrive in it. The problem is, it will only recognize 2 GB of it. I read in another post that this could be the result of having a FAT16 file system vs. FAT32, but I'm pretty sure it's FAT32. Am I wrong, or...

300W PC Power Supply - AT vs. ATX form by Fred Zimmerman
My local computer shop guy told me that I need a 300W AT form Power supply for my AMD (Asus Mboard) mini-tower PC. When I went to 2 or 3 websites selling PC power supplies, they all list 300W supplies as ATX form. What is the difference, and can I use an ATX instead of an AT form supply. Thanks.

32 or 64 bit - which? by Paul
The general rule of thumb on any new technology seems to be, don't get it until it's several years old. It'll be better, way cheaper, and most of the bugs in the original design will have been worked out. 64-bit computing sounds exciting, but there's AFAIK only one OS for it (Windows XP-64, and...

4 disks in 1U? by Mark Johnson
There are a few 1U cases out there that take 4 hot swap drives, but 2 or 3 bays is a lot more common. Are 4 drives in 1U pushing it too far? Not enough air flow etc? Anyone have experience or recomendations for a 4disk 1U case? I'm thinking that it would make a great 2xRAID1 system. thanks, Markj
