Don’t cheap out on part when building or upgrading!
I’ve never really checked what was inside my computer when i bought it a couple of years ago. Got an awful data lost on one of the hard drive (it’s not that bad 99.9% is on a backup ( power supply of the backup machine is kaput
) )
I thought I was stuck with the infamous Seagate 7200.10 hard drive problem that some people had, already had one fail on my a few month ago, so it was easy to point the finger at this again. But that all the pictures on a disk got corrupted all at the same was a bit weird. Looked like it was an overheat problem but the cooling system was o.k.
Finally did a full system test yesterday and one of the memory dimm is gone banada, problem is that it went undetected by the system. If I had ECC dimm instead that would not have gone unnoticed!
So having a Raid 1 setup because you don’t trust you disks is one thing, but if you memory is corrupted on the motherboard it’ll will write crazy stuff to the array anyway and corrupt stuff.
A chain is a good as it’s weakest link they said! It’s true!

Why scrap? Fix it instead!
We need an board like that. But it need to work.
Can’t just let the system regulate itself. That’s why the mobile services are so expensive in Canada and that our Internet providers have free reign like they have right now.

Scrap the CRTC, petition urges
An online petition to dissolve the CRTC has attracted hundreds of signatures in the wake of the regulator’s ruling against independent internet providers last week.
What do you think?

I really love palm. But this is very dissapointing.
Palm Pre Snoops on Users by Phoning Data Home
A programmer finds that the Palm Pre’s operating system webOS sends users’ GPS location to Palm every day, along with data on which WebOS apps they use and for how long. The move triggers concerns over data collection on consumer behavior by handset makers.
