I just checked newegg, and the models you listed are selling for more than $100.
Are my math skills as bad as my reading skills? Or is your inside man at newegg giving you a special discount?
Can you put me in touch with your inside man at newegg?
Buddy, I'm not sure what your problem is...
You must know someone at newegg who is willing to come in on a Sunday to ship your order. For some reason, that person only has access to three models out of scores that newegg carries. And then I guess that person will hand deliver it to you, since none of the usual carriers can pickup from...
I read the title of this thread and it is about the Samsung 840. I guess my reading skills must be terrible, since my reading of your posts today make it look like you are asking questions about several non-Samsung SSDs.
Where are you planning to buy your SSD?
Were you planning to throw a...
You mean this is for the same computer that you asked about a couple weeks ago and had already been answered by several people?
If you had two weeks to make a decision, why did you wait until the last minute to ask a followup question?
I'll second the recommendation on the 128GB Plextor M5Pro, which has a 5 year warranty.
I would not trust a 5 year warranty from OCZ, since who knows if OCZ will even be around in a few years.
Actually, ddrescue is likely to be more efficient at that than any tool that tries to access the filesystem. ddrescue is smart about the way it copies the data, skipping over large areas of bad sectors to copy only the easily readable sectors first. Then it can go back to try multiple times on...
You lost me again. What do you mean by "DD-Recover"?
I was referring to ddrescue (not to be confused with dd or dd_rescue).
ddrescue can clone drive-to-drive or drive-to-image-file. The link I gave previously gives several examples of different usage.
Also, there is a tutorial in the...
Right. This is standard procedure for data recovery. I'm surprised people are suggesting otherwise.
ddrescue is the best tool I know of for imaging a failing drive.
I'm not sure what you are asking. Standard procedure is to image the failing drive to another one, and then only work with the copy to recover data. Even better is to then image the image to a third drive, and then work only on the third drive, keeping the second as a best-case backup in case...
That may be the case. I'd even go so far as to say it is more likely than not to be the case.
But if there is even a 10% chance that the WA of his workload will be 2 or higher, then I think it is bad advice to assume a WA of 1.1 in estimating the endurance. In the absence of solid evidence...
