In message &lt;C7BED9D1.48CAE1%bobh...@me.co m&gt; <br> Intel makes a pretty good and cheap NAS box. Now, if only I could <br> remember the model number... <br> My friend has two of them. <br> Ah yes, SS4200-E. Available, if you shop, for under $200. Sometimes for <br> under $150. <br> <a target="_blank" rel=nofollow href="http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/ss4200-e/index.htm">[link]</a>

In article &lt;C7BED9D1.48CAE1%bobh...@me.co m&gt;, <br> Look at ReadyNAS. They have a very flexible RAID implementation, <br> and in the past, they have had very good AppleShare networking <br> support. <br> And if you want 100% Mac compatible, then get a Mac mini, and hang <br> a Drobo off the side :-)

[Snip my details of PC133 vs PC100 potential compatibility issues] <br> If you can identify the part numbers on the individual chips, you can <br> probably do a Google search to identify their speed, capacity and type, <br> then multiply by the number of chips to get the total number of bits on <br> the DIMM and divide by 8 to get bytes.

I am looking a various Network Attached Storage options and would like to <br> hear from people with experience in using them in a MAC environment. <br> I want a device that would support 4 SATA drives, but might start out with <br> just 2. Other desired features: <br> - RAID 0,1,5 <br> - easy expansion - hot swappable drives would be nice but not required

It will only work as long as you keep it plugged in..... <br> And while you could remove the battery; it will unbalance <br> the laptop.

Thanks for the information. As a side note I have a Dimm that fell out <br> of a fully loaded slotted G3 B&amp;W tower I got on eBay. The seller was <br> no help in identifying what size or how it came to become lost and <br> loose in the tower. I am just glad it did not short anything out as it <br> was laying loose. Now I assume it is the correct Ram for the b&amp;w tower

I'm not sure what the &quot;high density&quot; bit means, but as a general rule <br> you can use PC133 DIMMs in a computer which expects PC100, provided the <br> basic type is the same (unbuffered, not ECC, etc.). Parity (if present) <br> is usually ignored in a Mac. <br> There is a catch: SDRAM DIMMs have a small &quot;serial presence detect&quot;

I have a B&amp;W G3 that takes UNBUFFERED DIMM SDRAM Number of Pins: 168 <br> NON-ECC PC-100 Max size per Dimm 256MB <br> My question is can I use PC133 256MB Dimms also with the same specs <br> but also that is a high density Dimm?

In article &lt;fmoore-61BC74.13552909032...@ mail.eternal-september.org&gt;, <br> In my freshman year, a room next to mind had a guy who would come in and <br> grab a handful of any food left out. So they set out a bowl of candy <br> coated Ex-lax. The grabber scarfed down a handful and boy did he <br> complain. &quot;It's your own damn fault, ask, before scarfing food.&quot;
