yes I badly need a new pc :(
lmfao... :lol: like it!

lol
Yeah i was thinking that too.
I have some blue LEDs might replace the ones on the voyager...
Deffo gonna put neons in it though, cause the top of the case has vents in it so the neonage will shine out!
Real reason for all the stuff on the modem though is it seems to have problems with heat, if i touch the chips their burning hot, and i get loads of CIs in games because of it overheating (no joke)

Excellent, new it wouldnt be long, i reckon SATA will take over the SCSI life as it can handle immense amounts of data transfer by comparison
:)
nice machind mherb, do u really need that much space? :o lol

sataII might, but will be a long time as scsi is well set in the server market, works, and at 320mbps dosent really need to get much quicker. (and drives are generally raided too for speed and resiliance yes I know this can be done with sata just sayin that it dosent really need to change, and major changes in server market are normally done by necessatity)
needs to fit all his porn on there ! :D

30-11-2005, 18:43

What speed does sata 2 get upto?
SATAII gets up to 300Mb/s.... double that of the 150Mb/s that the SATA ones do :)
couple of drives out there claiming to have some features of SATAII.... but not worth it untill fully implemented ones start showing! :D mmmm 300mb/s :D
