Thanks a lot Nintek. 2 weeks later.
Ah well. It feels good to be a member of the terabyte club and to have some space again

Meanwhile I'm only up to about 450GB - still, I haven't managed to come anywhere near filling it up, but I'm sure I'll manage.
Ultimately, I want to create a lossless archive of my CD collection (one of my CDs has died despite excellent care, so I'm a little concerned), but I'm guessing it'll take up somewhere between 300 and 400 GB, and growing each month.

Well all I can say is that the people I dealt with at Nintek were civil and polite but they just lacked communication. When they have stock I usually get things the next day so long as I order at a reasonable time (before 2pm WST).Muzza wrote:LOL, I was so tempted to purchase a few things from Nintek, then Ive read some customer feedback over at the whirlpool forums.
All I can say is Im glad I didnt! Terrible service from what Ive read.
In general though I take accusations that CS are rude (ESPECIALLY on whingepool) with a grain of salt because with most people you only get out with what you put in.

A guy at work runs a lot of our office stuff from home, he has several terrabytes in his front room. He coded his own tivo and then made his own hardware to go with it, has his house all hooked up, when somebody calls first the call goes through his number database to see who it is, if it's not in the database it goes to answering machine and he finds out and adds to database, if they are in it, it flashes on each monitor in the house (one in each room) who the call is and who it would probably be for. He is crazy.

I only have 460GB in my rig, spread across four drives.
I really want about 500GB-1TB in a NAS box, so I can remove some of the weight of this machine, and not have to worry about interchangability of the contained data between different OSes.
Pity that wouldn't be as fast as a natively installed drive though
