I just replaced a failing Samsung SP1213C (Nidec motor) with a WD1600AAJS. Straight out of the box, the idle noise was the same, and vibration induced noise was better(it's hard mounted in a SLK3700AMB case using the soft McMaster grommets). The seek noise was noticeable, not "clackety" but more"sni...

I have the Coolmax Taurus CX400B (see sig). I have the fan speed selector set on AUTO. No gaming, but I fold 24/7. I can't hear the PSU over the Nexus fans at 12v. I leave the fans at 12v to muffle the annoying buzz of my CRT monitor. One caveat. I haven't been able to verify what the warranty perio...

I just bought a Samsung 120GB Sata drive (SP1213C) from Endpcnoise.com. Before I did, I emailed them and asked if this model had the Nidec motor. They responded saying that they all contained Nidec motors. Whether that means all of their drives, or all of this particular model, I'm not sure. In eith...

OK to lay noisy Samsung HD on it's side?
Hello, I just bought a Samsung Sata 120MB HD with a Nidec FDB motor. I powered it up and held it in my hand. Very quiet, although I could feel some vibration. I then placed it in a SLK3700AMB case with AAM set for quiet seeks. The seeks aren't bad, but the humming and buzzing of the case are pretty ...

How much difference between Athlon XP & A64?
Can anyone tell me how much difference there is in folding performance between the Athlon XP's and the Athlon 64's?
Thanks in advance,

According to the Zalman USA web site, the 7000AlCu is "incompatible" with Abit NF7, NF7-S or AN7.1398342003 wrote: For HSF I decided to get the Zalman 7000AlCu, even though it's $20 more than I want to spend. The Thermalright/Swiftech/Alpha coolers are $25 more than the 7000AlCu, so they aren't an option.

Coolmax Taurus CX450B
This post is to report my experience with a recently purchased Coolmax Taurus CX450B. This is a black 120mm fan PS(they also come in silver). I used to have the PP412X PS that came standard in my SX-830 case. I put the Coolmax in and fired up the pc. Couldn't hear the PS fan. Got nervous, thought th...

After running the installer and rebooting, I got an error saying that the executable file couldn't be found. I copied SRVANY.EXE (one of the files the installer put i...

So, the solution? How 'bout some fresh ideas to attract new folders? Also, what, if anything buggs/bothers you about our folding efforts? Anyone? As a rookie folder, these are things I noticed while getting started: 1. Ease of installing and running the FAH program. For me, this part went pretty sm...
