Single card setup
1. Looks like different heatsink
2. Same fan speed profile
I tried replacing the TIM which didn't help. Do you think an aftermarket heatsink would bring the temps down?
I have a HIS 6850 and a XFX 6850. Under load, no overclocking at 24c ambient temperature the XFX hits 72c but the HIS hits 82c. I've tried swapping the pci-e slots and aiming a case fan at the HIS card which didn't really help the temperature. For this reason I believe it's either: (a) a less...
I installed two Radeon HD 6850 graphics cards in an Antec Super Lanboy case. The case has two 120mm Yate Loon fans: One at the front in the bottom directing cool air in and one at the back near the cpu directing hot air out. Running stock (no overclocking) at 24C ambient temperature the top...
I just acquired a Radeon HD 6850 video card and I noticed it extends over my SATA ports. I looked inside the plastic shroud and the whole area that's covering the SATA ports is empty. Is it OK to remove the black plastic casing around the card? Will it affect cooling? Would it void my warranty...

I'm thinking about filling the machine with four 1.0 TB or 1.5 TB drives and a raid card.
I might run windows, linux or freeNAS as an operating system so...

Thanks!

Strange enough.... I unplugged it and plugged it into a different SATA port. Fixed the problem.
I was able to replicate the error and test the fix again by returning it to the original SATA port. It worked.
I have a 150GB Raptor drive that is fairly new and in great condition. SMART is looking good. Its absolutely not a mechanical error or a physical problem because I've had this exact problem before and can't remember how I fixed it for the life of me.
The drive gets reformatted between HFS+...
Is the Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000 the way to go for terabyte storage? Fast is important to me- I have two raptor-x drives currently. More importantly, because it is my storage drive I'd like it to be stable. Is this the way to go? How much have they been selling for on sale recently?
What are my...
Currently, I have an external hard drive that I backup and put in a fireproof/waterproof safe.
I'm thinking about paying to have it backed up off site... any recommendations?
I'd probably die if I lost all my code, pictures, etc...
