OCZ SDD drives destroyed by hard reset or power off? by
John Doe
I am getting the unpleasant feeling that my SDD is dying, again.
I have done a button style power off and one or two hard resets
recently. And now I am getting a CHKDSK error.
In any case, if the indication is correct, this will be the second
OCZ SDD that has gone belly up in my system.

PC randomly freezes for about 20 seconds by
Jimbob[_3_]
Hello,
My PC has started to randomly lock up for about 20 seconds. This only
started last Friday after no issues what so ever, no new software or
hardware were installed prior to this.
I did think it was my harddrive as the LED would stay on during the
lockups but i ran Crystal Disk h/d tool and...

IE 7 questions by
hp
I was rooting around the wife's laptop, (its older so it only has a
40giggle HD) and noticed that it needed a little cleaning out because
after some years of using it she was getting closer to 10% free space.
One of the things I found was that we had updated it as time went along
and she now...

Users that have a UPS but no data backup by
John Doe
I wonder how many users are sold an Uninterruptible Power Supply
(UPS) but don't have a backup of important files from their hard
drive.
They need a UPS to save a tiny amount of data at risk from a rare
prolonged power outage, but risk losing everything on their hard
drive due to simple...

Price of HDD by
The Seabat
Holy crap, has anyone noticed the fast rise of high prices for SATA
hard drives? I bought a 4-drive NAS container a couple of months ago
and decided to do some research on the reliability and performance of
various 1 and 1 1/2 TB hard drives. When I bought the storage unit you
could get 1TB hard...

RAM Not Recognized by BIOS by
TVeblen
We are seeing more and more cases of new systems in which RAM modules
that are compatible by specification to a motherboard are not recognized
and freeze the system from booting unless a BIOS version upgrade is
performed.

Best keyboard in a long while: Manhattan-Products model SKB-2 Slim Keyboard by
RayLopez99
Nice tactile feel. Very slim. Cheap (around $10 here in SE Asia).
keys are not "loose" and feel like "metal" though plastic. The
keyboard does not shake like most cheap plastic kbs. Has a "metal"
feel and is heavy, which is good since you don't want it moving around
when you press it. Very...

OT Captcha, commin atchah? by
John Doe
Is it just me, or is Captcha getting a little too difficult to
translate lately? Taking two or three tries sometimes. Seems to me
they could figure out a better way of doing that, so that we
humans can see it easily.
