    VMWare ESXi on a CF card?

    Okay, I did some more reading, and it seems that the PowerEdge R805 has a built in SD card just for VMware. So I'm guessing that it should work fine!

    VMWare ESXi on a CF card?

    I'm not sure if you took this into account or not, but the actual VMs would be on say a RAID-5 array on a hardware RAID controller. Only the ESXi install and boot would be off the CF-SATA card. I've been doing some reading about people installing ESXi on USB drives, which requires hacks and...

    VMWare ESXi on a CF card?

    With one of these CF-SATA adapters: Addonics ADSAHDCF CF - SATA HDD Adapter I remember something about CF cards being bad if something wrote a lot on it...(I have m0n0wall on a CF card right now, it just stores the config file on CF) I'm not sure how active VMWare gets on the disk that it...

    2005FPW Stand replacement?

    Do the new stands from say a 2007WFP fit on the 2005FPW? I really dislike the stand that's included with the 2005! Also, it's probably time to upgrade to a bigger LCD, any recommendations on a good LCD with a S-IPS panel? (I do a lot of photo editing) the 2408WFP is a bit too pricey...

    Just switched from XP, a few questions

    fn + enter doesn't work for me on my MBP :( I've tried both the enter on top of the shift and next to the left key. The login items trick for mounting shares works wonderfully, but when I put my MBP to sleep, it loses all the connections :( Is this a SMB problem?

    Apple Pro Speakers?

    Anyone using them with some sort of adapter to use on regular 3.5mm speaker out jacks? Those iFires are absurdly expensive on ebay. These weren't digital in the SPDIF sense were they? I'm wondering because they connected to the "digital audio connector" on the older G4 towers and iMacs...

    X-Fi XtremeMusic and digital out

    I'm picking up some Logitech Z-5500 Speakers soon and I keep reading that for games, you should be using the analog minijack connections with the three cables instead of going digital since the X-Fi apparently can't mix them into a digital connection or something. Battlefield 2 :) So if I...

    Roland DM-20 vs Klipsch 2.1?

    I'm curious as to how these Roland DM-20 Digital Stereo Micro Monitors compare to your usual Klipsch 2.1 speaker set... From the specs, it seems like the Klipsch has more power, but I rarely crank up the volume too much. In terms of quality, are they comparable?

    Chances that the MBP will be updated with Mermon for WWDC?

    The 1.83 MBP deal on Amazon didn't work out, it was stuck on waiting to be shipped for a while, then it just went out of stock yesterday, and the rebate expired. I'm thinking again, It will probably be worth waiting for the next revision with the new Core 2 CPU. Since Intel recently...

    what does dell use RAID key's for?

    I have one on my PE2450, it just enables the onboard RAID functions on the integrated SCSI controller. Evil dell, the raid key looks like it costs a dollar to make, yet they charged quite a sum of money to include one, and overpriced the cache ram for it.
