I've got a 2 drive 640GB Black Caviar RAID that I want to set up as just an OS and apps boot drive. I realize larger block sizes have more through put but waste disk space, and smaller sizes save space but are less efficient. My user folder (mail, media, itunes, video, docs) will be on a separate drive. (1) So how do apps and OS files load at boot time and runtime? (2) If ...

> Assuming you have the same identifier (which it should be), you can copy the default.bcd file fine to the other servers.... You still need to make sure the bcd files in \RemoteInstall\tmp folder are re-generated with the new values... either by kicking of a control function using sc or simply restart the service.

Hi, I am using Oracle 11g (11.1.0.6.0-Production standard edition), default data block size = 8192 bytes. I have performed some testing to check 'query execution time' after creating 3 different block size tablespaces. First tablespace is default with 8k block size. Second one is with 4k and Third with 16k block size. I've set db_cache_size for ...

Smart Text Reflow was added to CS4, which might also be of interest to you. Adobe does, in fact listen to customer requests for new and improved features. Not all requests can be satisfied during each release cycle, but if you have a suggestion, you should file it at Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form...

RAID 0 is not fault tolerant so do you backups. Stripe size of 64KB for the RAID controller is best for most users. 128KB is for SQL databases or arrays that have very large files as the majority. You will find the majority of your files on a normal computer are 32-64Kb. In Windows for the format in NTFS, 512 bytes is optimal. This will give your stripe 128 x 512 byte blocks = 64 KB.

"If the pully is too small the rope compresses (on the inside) and stretches (on the outside) too much" - You would be speaking of sheave diameter and what happens to the rope as it goes around the sheave. When using a block (or pulley), in relation to your rope diameter you need to consider two things. Diameter of the sheave and width of the sheave. The tighter the bend, the greater ...

Hey Guys, I have always been interested in the Tudor Big Blocks, especially the 79170 with silver dial, black registers and black bezel. I also know they are very sought after and don't recal ever seeing one of these posted in the "For Sale" section yet. Just curious how big the case size is? Is it the same size as the Daytona? Does anyone also know of any websites where I might be able ...
