    if you use the anti-vibration mounts @ http://www.quietpc.com/uk/harddrive.php#hdrubbermo unts the noise vanishes, or you can get the heatpipe cooler @ http://www.quietpc.com/uk/harddrive.php#zm2hc1 , btw the mounts can be ordered separately, just mail them for info, its also best to attach a drive with the heatpipe cooler to the base of the case, temp went from 50c to 35c.

  17. Re:Resistance to change on What If Dark Matter Really Doesn't Exist? · · Score: 1

    any objective person should be more than happy to be proved wrong about a theory they thought was correct, it does of course stop them from using that false theory in any future experiments and instead start the search for a more valid theory(then another, ad infinitum), this not about a 'theory brand loyalty ego' this is about the search for the truth in our reality.

  24. Re:Enormous Amounts of Time on Wasting Time Fixing Computers · · Score: 1

    all you need to do is set your system partition to the size of a dvd-r(or more, 4.36gb x n) and just backup that with ghost, you can then do incremental backups(i do once a month), then when your computer starts to 'act strange' just restore the partition, i've had zero problems with this approach, its obviously a different story if you want to backup hundreds of gb's, but the main problems are with the os, hard drives dont exactly fail that ofter, in my experience...
