Spinpoint F4 HD204UI 2TB 5400 RPM working good so far
There was a recent deal at NewEgg on the SAMSUNG Spinpoint F4 HD204UI 2TB 5400 RPM 32MB drives, so I decided to risk it as opposed to the other WD & Seagate 2tb drives. I installed them, upgraded the ...
Yeah got it.
You are as mad as me.
Normal people don't do these kinda things I've come to realise.
So you use xp just for the purpose of the HP bootable thumb program. I take it, it wouldn't work well with Windows 7 and needed xp to manage the flashstick update stuff. That makes sense.
The WD's had trouble with the LCC's and needed patching with something. That's why I stayed away from them. I hoped I wouldn't have to do anything like that with the Samsungs. Chance I took. I was trying to make things easy for me...... Joke's on me.
Thanks for bothering to help me the last couple of days. You're answers tonight clarified things up for greatly. I'm the only person I know in my circles who tamper with IT like this. So to think anybody else is bothering to mess around like I have to, it doesn't make for great comprehension. But then I probably don't think about it either.
I know I should build myself a pc really, but I don't have the time right now. Maybe next year. I'll let you know about my cheap sata pc adventure. See how much I can get bashed in the credit cards for, just to sort out my poxy hdd's.
As I type this, I'm thinking 'my mums gonna kill me'. I'm 38 divorced, live on my own, have for the last 20 years and I'm worried what my mums gonna say.
There's something wrong there somewhere.
But she will go mad when she sees the new pc. Not something I can hide..............fancy being worried about what my mum's gonna say. I guess it's telling me I've had too much time off work.
Got to go to work.
