Hmmm...That is a bit odd. I'm going to assume you tested the cables to make sure they work (by switching the devices they are connected to)...did you check the hub to make sure all…

In response to your questions, the hub works, as do the cables, I have once had the Ethernet work, and only once...... I'm run OS 9, 160 MB of RAM in the iBook, 128 in the DV SE, 3…

iBook and iMac Networking Problem — #4

There was recently an issue about the iBook's auto-negotiation (telling it whether it's hooked up to a 10 or 100BaseT network).. I don't know the particulars, though, so do a sear…

iBook and iMac Networking Problem — #5

Nope, I have a different port then indicated in the TIL, and anyway it only affects one out of three, when it should 2 out three if I had that hub, which I don't.

Upgrading Bronze Hard Drive — #2

I have always liked IBM hard disk drives. IBM has recently come out with hard drives that hold 30 gigabytes, if I remember correctly. These drives spin at 5400 RPM, one of the fast…

Upgrading Bronze Hard Drive — #3

5400 RPM is one of the SLOWEST drive speeds, not the fastest. more importantly seek and access time would be better numbers to look at if you are going to do any high disk i/o. [T…

"residentEvil", I don't think you've understood. We're talking mobile drives. The standard rotational speed for mobile drives is 4500 RPM. Before you flame another member (sorry i…

You might backup your posts with facts, like the difference in speed between whatever and whatever. If mobile hard disk drives were faster, with the technology we have today, they…

While some of sean's claims above were wrong (specifically those about thermally induced noise), he is correct that 5400RPM is the fastest available for notebook drives (4200 is st…

Upgrading Bronze Hard Drive — #10

About the searing heat warping the innards, it turns out I was wrong. Drives might require thermal recalculation, but their innards won't warp enough to make more noise.
