Re: News for 2011-02-10

I'm interested to see what Intel will do once they jump to 25nm NAND. OCZ said that Intel was/is intentionally limiting the write speed so the jump to 25nm would be unnoticeable; I think that's total crap, and doesn't speak high of a company when one of their employees directly blames a competitor j...

So what's the point of purchasing an OCZ Vertex 2 25nm instead of Corsair Force, when OCZ didn't pass the lower NAND costs to the customer (just $10 less for 120GB) AND when the capacity is 4GB lower?

The board has a real southbridge, ICH9R, which can do RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 an...

Re: Case recommendation. Tempted to get Fractal Design Defin

The Zalman looks nice, not sure how silent it is though. It seems to have only the left panel covered in sound dampening material. I am trying to see if I can get a Fortress FT02 (can't seem to find any shop in this country that sells it) and if I can't, I will most likely stick with the R3. You ca...

Re: Case recommendation. Tempted to get Fractal Design Defin

The Zalman MS1000-HS2 with another caddy (ZM-HDR1) will have 9 hot-swap 3.5" bays, plus another for an optical drive. You ought to replace the 92mm fans on the caddies though, with something like the Nexus Real Silent Basic (nice name, eh?) or another low-RPM fan. It's a pretty nice case - there's a...
