badkarma, how did you go flashing gPXE into your NIC or motherboard BIOS? I'm looking for a recommendation for PCI Express gigabit NICs with jumbo frame support and programmable rom for PXE. Any suggestions? I haven't... yet. You can use the chainloading method with any PXE enabled NIC (I think ALL...

45mm overall height? Don't know if that would fit still.
UPDATE: Nevermind, 35mm overall height is required. SST Guy, any plans for a S775 low profile cooler in the near future?

Could i have a discless client/initiator boot windows of a linux server/target? Absolutely. Works well too in my testing.

What do you mean by a linux target? Does that mean you're using it to boot up a Linux operating system? If so, then it really isn't necessary to have that. I'm netbooting Debian GNU/Linux using plain old PXE/tftp/nfs. The reason I'm not getting as good performance as you is that I'm using cheap old...

badkarma: I see. From what you are telling me it seems like AoE/iSCSI is the better solution. Is it possible to use AoE with sata hd's? You can use AoE with any HD device on the target. It's agnostic that way. You just point the AoE Target application to an image file on your filesystem. I looked a...

Konata Izumi, Didn't realize PXE can boot Windows directly. Sounds like PXE has to load the entire windows image into RAM. What AoE or iSCSI does is provide a driver, that allows Windows to see an AoE/iSCSI disk as a local disk. I use PXE to chainload gPXE which then boots off AoE/iSCSI. On a Gigabi...

Not standard Windows? Which part are you talking about? Only that it is not part of Windows OS as it is distributed, and nothing more. From your posts it also sounds recent. None of this is intended to be negative. Oh AoE is definitely not a standard OS thing. iSCSI however is, you can download Mic...

I do better than that from a comparable setup; NFS on FreeBSD is a tad slow though. It seems that what you are describing is not "standard Windows." How would it usually be handled?

Not limited to *nix OS'es ether. Spent the last week getting an XP install booting via AoE (ATA over Ethernet). Using gigabit ethernet (without jumbo frames) my "drive" speeds are excellent, 50MBps which is not much slower than the actual drive in the AoE server. I figured that there should be a wa...

Have you tried undervolting your X3350? I'm just curious as the Q9450 is rated for 0.85V – 1.3625V and the X3350 is rated for 1.212V. I'm pretty sure it's just because it's a server chip. I have a X3350 retail sitting in the box. Going to lend it to a friend to review on his site. Actually if Mike...

No one's mentioned AoE or iSCSI since 2005-2006? Thought I'd bring this one up from the dead. Unfortunately for me, I'm restricted to a Windows storage server, as I plan on running Mediaportal TVE3 server on it as well. AoE From what I've seen, there's no Windows AoE targets, so I can't run AoE. A f...

You been able to get HD hardware acceleration working well? How about heat? I heard the 8300 was being delayed due to heat. Curious if the 8200 suffers heat problems but at a lesser degree. How about multichannel LPCM via HDMI? Have you been able to test that?
Also what Bios version are you running?

Hi all, Looking to build myself a cheap Mediaportal "extender". Planning on using a Nvidia 8200 board with a BE-2350 Athlon. The In-Win BL series has caught my eye, as it's cheap and comes with a PSU and don't look too shabby. I can't seem to find the BL640 or BL634 anywhere online, only the BL631. ...

80mm to 120mm fan Adapters?
Hi,
I have an Origenae X11 case that only has 80mm fan mounts, 2 in the rear and one under the HD cage. I was wondering of replacing the 2 rear 80mm fans with a single 120mm using an adapter would work. Would I see any benefit even though the airflow is going through a 80mm hole? How about noise?

I just bought mine yesterday and installed it. It's definitely very quiet. I moved my louder system drive further into the case and put the HD401LJ closer to the outside of the case.

I originally was looking at the 300GB T series, but someone mentioned the 250GB P series (SP2504C) was faster an quieter. But if the HD401LJ performs faster and is quieter than the SP2504C, I'll grab one of t...
