I know the feeling. I've got 6 or so computers in my house on the network. I lost 2 to the flooding, too.

I've got parts everywhere too lol

lol
that's what happens when you work as a systems integrator.. you end up building computers.. and as you upgrade, you take the old parts and build backup computers and put those to work, too.. before ya know it, the whole house is networked, and you're sitting on the john, chatting in IRC on a bluetooth notebook.. lol

Sorry Glass, but that is too many computers. You are going to have to give one of them to me.

It's the only way, sorry.

named after anime characters from a few series I like. Azumanga Daioh, Ichigo Mashimaro (strawberry marshmellow), and Chobits.
(see: http://www.animenfo.com for details)

I used to have them named after the girls from Gunslinger Girl, but I change them every so often.
Those are their network names, though. They're all on a gigE LAN.

Also, what is the purpose behind the oriental names for your comp's? what ever happenned to "bob", "sue", "booger" all good names...

Yea. My cd drive is the master on that one.

Haha, I had RAID configurations before. I needed that hdd speed with striping for video editing. I'm a film major. Raw uncompressed video is 30 MB/s, so you do the math :)

I no longer am running the 3 in RAID 0. I found out recently that this motherboard only does software RAID. My previous had hardware RAID.

The 250 gig really wasn't going to be in my good computer, but I had to change motherboards on my server, and the mobo in there now does not have sata.
