ipod Nano flash memory made into a USB drive: feasible?

But it wouldn't be very fun to walk over to the store and buy one :P I'm thinking the easiest way would be to try removing the memory from the spare flash drive and somehow swap the ipod NAND flash with the existing thumb drive's memory . As to how hard this would be, or potential problems...

ipod Nano flash memory made into a USB drive: feasible?

I took apart a broken ipod nano 1st gen and removed the NAND flash memory (Samsung 540 K9HAG08U1M) hoping to put it to good use. Now I have a spare flash drive laying around, which got me thinking - why not put them together and make a 4gig flash drive? Now I'm no double E major, but from...

Q6600 at 80c load? Help!

Okay so i messed around the G33M bios, apparently I'm having the opposite end from yours sniperdaws. By setting the vcore to 1.1 in bios, it's actually a lot lower (about 1.056 in cpuz) and strangely enough the temps are about the same. I had to set it to about 1.23 in BIOS to get 1.1. I can...

Q6600 at 80c load? Help!

The voltage bounces between 1.12v and 1.2v in cpuz. That sounds about right, I think.

Q6600 at 80c load? Help!

Wow what a difference! It's lowered the temps across all four cores by more than 10c. Load on prime05 running for an hour is 69C, as opposed to the 81C. It's idling at about 46C, very acceptable for a cramped mATX :D The FX121 crossflow fan i bought today barely squeezed into the case, and...

Sounds good. I'll be picking up a FX121 crossflow fan from silverstone and another 120mm intake tomorrow. Let's see if it'll cool the beast :P

Q6600 at 80c load? Help!

Whew thanks for the reply. Ah sorry, it's a silverstone SG03 (new version). The power supply is sitting right above the CPU fan which unfortunately limits the size of the heatsink/fans i can use. I do use all 4 cores btw :P That xp-120 and nt-06 look good, but I don't think i can fit a...

Q6600 at 80c load? Help!

I'm not sure what's going on but I just made a new system and the g0 q6600 at stock speeds is running at 80c load under prime95. 70-75c with bioshock maxed out. I reseated the cpu and heatsink but it's reading the same temps. Right now the comp is idling at 55-60c. I'd say the average is...

Ionic Wind - Chillin' the PC

in the words of Stephen Colbert, "I CALLED IT!" Back in '01 or '02 i proposed this idea on these forums but got several responses about the dangers of "ozone buildup" within the case. I wonder how they deal with that (is ozone buildup really a serious problem? lol) and how they overcame...

best 17" value LCD?

Isn't the 710N only analog? It seems like it doesn't have DVI, which is pretty important.

Samsung 710V and 710T LCDs?

I'm going to the 2004 Taipei Computer Application Show tomorrow. I'll check the 710V out if it's there.

Just Ordered All The Parts For My New System WOOT!

Nice job man, it'll feel really good putting it all together and having it boot for the first time. I practically held my breath last summer when starting up my rig (was the first personal rig I built in 7 1/2 years, and first into watercooling). My advice to you is to take a trip to your local...

Best 17" LCD Monitor < $480

DVI allows you to adjust the colors using software so that they are appear better than what analog allows. Also, to quote ehZn from hardforums: DVI >>>> vga, without question. I've compared them side by side and the difference is striking. After DVI, vga seems blurry and dull. Also, Garage81...

Samsung 710T

Some people have said in the hardforums that the 710T is 18-bit. If you run a search, 710T is listed with 24-bit color on the manufacturer's site. If you're positive that it is indeed 18-bit color, you can accuse Samsung (and other LCD manufacturers) of false advertising, since they list their...
