PC Specs Ctd.

In December I had a hard drive crash on Mission Control. This was double-y expected eventually since it was a RAID 0 configuration. I only lost a couple hours of work, since I had an auto-backup setup to a RAID 1 NAS I keep in the basement. Rebuilding was a pain, but such is life. To avoid such hassle in the future, I rebuilt with a change:

Intel Q6600 quad-core 2.40GHz 8M L2 Cache
Intel DX38BT motherboard
ATI Radeon 3870×2 1gb
WD Caviar 500 GB 1 GB SATA Hard Drive X 2 RAID 0 RAID 1 (1TB total)
750W Real Power Pro Psu
8GB DDR3 PC3-8500
Vista Home Premium 64

I do miss the speed.
