Yeah, sounds like you might have to massage the data a bit to make it easier on yourself. If you have the same name as a key (e.g. Region and PHY/Description), it shouldn't be too hard to create a new worksheet that combines the two tables and sets up an easier way for you to reference the data...

It should (again, this is WEI, so... hopefully it's behaving as it should) be testing your system drive. If Windows is on your SSD, it should be using your SSD for the tests. Do you have any system files (i.e. page file?) on your 7200rpm drive? I'd try using HD Tune (http://www.hdtune.com)...

SATA controller. It's rare that a hard drive needs drivers of its own.

Shouldn't be anything stopping you from saving the worksheet as a .csv delimited by <whatever> and importing it into something else. It sounds like this could be a better way of doing the job than using Excel. I guess the question at hand is: What would you rather be doing this with/in, and is...

Sounds like you might have the wrong drivers installed in Windows. That's usually the cause of a low WEI (not that WEI is an accurate measure of anything, really).

Gotta say, Misaki's random outbursts in Sakurasou ep19 were the funniest thing I've seen in anime this season so far.

Paltry budget it is, and it's at home as well. I would never, ever do this with someone else's data, and I run nightly backups. That said, FlexRAID isn't nearly as dangerous as Windows software RAID, given that the most you can lose is a drive's worth of data (which can be easily recovered if...

If it's running Windows Vista (or Server 2008 R1) or later, you can probably put it in a new PC without too many issues as Vista and higher are capable of switching HALs on the fly. If it's XP or lower, don't even bother trying, it is almost guaranteed not to work on the basis of the HAL and/or...

Alternatively, try OpenDNS. Use them anonymously, though:They log your requests.So does Googleto some extent. Their DNS servers are listed here:http://www.opendns.com/business-solu...-dns/benefits/

My understanding is that TRIM is a driver-level thing. When Storage Spaces calls on that disk (as part of an active set), it should be using TRIM if the disk supports it. Could be wrong but I'm fairly sure this is correct. That said, I tried using Storage Spaces on Server 2012 to replace...

I don't even understand that comment. What's complicated about Windows, ever?

Oh fuck yes. Take my money, right now. First game I've ever pledged on Kickstarter, and I pledged big. I hope they deliver.

Heh, speaking of Neptunia over in the JRPG thread...http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-new...igns-previewed Here's hoping they don't fuck this one up.

Yep, the wiring in my server sucks. I'll get to it when I get to it. Heat isn't an issue and the wiring isn't visible with the case closed, so it's not all that important to me. That, and I just swapped out the motherboard a week ago, so I was in a hurry to get it back up and running. Got...

I bought a battery off eBay once and it worked out fine, but YMMV. The battery I bought (for a Toshiba Satellite Pro if I remember right) was reconditioned, but still a genuine part. The danger lies in the quality of no name/third party batteries and whether they have warranty coverage (i.e. if...

+1 for Dropbox. Free and effortless.

If you're gonna buy off some other site, just make sure the batteries are genuine. If they're some kinda scam, and they blow up in your laptop, consider yourself entirely screwed.

If anyone still needed insight into how very anti-community Tyen is, there you have it. And to think that a double-digit number of people actually voted to unban Trexxy... wow.

That, right there, is my single biggest complaint with respect to the various stores. Points. Fuck points. Use dollars. I don't want to have to guess how many points I need to buy shit, and I definitely don't want to have to buy more points than I need just to be able to afford something. As...

I just threw the laggiest anime OP I've ever had running on my media box (Angel Beats!) at MPC-HC with madVR+LAV and it brought a tear to my eyes. Not a single skipped frame. However did I not manage to know about this combo in the past?

This is pretty much the ring my wife chose for herself, except that hers is a blue sapphire instead of a pink one: She likes sapphires. She saw it and chose it right away, and has never so much as hinted that she wanted anything else. Of course, she might pull an "upgrade" stunt a few...

I ran out of space when my wife moved in and brought all of her games with her. Had to punt all my NES/SNES stuff to make room for her PSX/PS2 games. That said, we both prefer keeping physical media rather than having it all digital (even if I do take backups of the rarer ones just in case -- it...

It owes that in part to the title. Xenoanything would get that treatment given the time we've waited for a spiritual successor to Xenogears/saga.

Yep, they're packaged as one game with two chapters for PSP (Ys Chronicles). Still fairly expensive new (~$50-60) but they go on sale now and then like everything else. They're both great games, well worth the price, IMO.

OK, that's messier than mine, even... Alienware M17x R2 (center) and M11x R3 (left). The M17x is i7 920XM @ 2.4GHz, 16GB DDR3, 5870 x2 CF. The M11x isn't much of a gaming laptop -- i7 2617M @ 1.5GHz, 16GB DDR3, nVidia 540M + Intel 3000, but it'll do in a pinch if I'm travelling. I...

The wife bought Neptunia 1 a while ago, I watched her play through it. The best parts are the puns that most people wouldn't even understand if they aren't paying attention. I think I might play through it for the bits I didn't see, though. And we don't have Mk2 yet. Think I just figured out...

I think the word "overrated" is overused when it comes to gaming, especially in the case of JRPGs (outside of Japan, anyway). It's tough to call any game overrated when they're viewed so subjectively. Case in point: Some people refer to the entire Final Fantasy series as overrated. I think...

My wife chose her own engagement ring. It wasn't expensive, but she took one look at it and knew it was the right one. Of course, there are two dangers in doing things this way. 1. The element of surprise isn't there anymore. My wife knew I was going to propose, so it wasn't an issue for us...

Disgaea is the new Pokemon of RPGs. Any game that actually expects you to get up to level 9999 (if I remember right) and then reincarnate to level 1 to get everything in the game done isspecial. I've watched my wife play some of them for a while, and the grind reminds me of EQ, just... more...

Yeah, that should probably not show for people who've donated. It's an ad, amirite?

Yep. The provincial return is part of the federal return in Ontario, don't know about the rest of the country as I've never lived elsewhere. The web site seems to indicate that the entire program is free, period. It would appear that the only separate institution to have to agree to its use...

Fair enough. I don't own an Android phone (though I do own an Android tablet) so my experience with the OS is admittedly limited. Friends who are running 4.x have reported various battery issues, but I don't know enough about their circumstances to judge one way or the other. It's certain...

For those of you doing taxes in Canada, try:http://www.studiotax.com/ It's free and NETFILE certified. Been using it for a couple years now and it's quite good. It does linked spousal returns, which is handy.

I can make my iPhone lose its entire charge in a small number of hours, but I have to do some very stupid shit to make that happen (like running the CPU at a constant 100%). Under normal use, I've never seen an iPhone need a charge over one day -- except the one day that I took my 4S to Epcot...

The one thing that struck me most about the 5 is its weight relative to the 4/4s. It doesn't seem to get as hot when it's busy, either, although I've only been able to make it heat up appreciably when doing Stupid Jailbreak Shit to it so far. Under normal circumstances, it seems to behave a lot...

The Asus G75 is impressive for its cost. I had a G75VW for a while until I had my Alienware fixed under warranty instead (which they weren't going to do at first). Had the opportunity to extend the warranty not presented itself, I'd still have the G75. It was a really sweet laptop. If you...

Even making it run a check once every 2 min would still save battery life. If you absolutely have to know the instant an email comes in, this doesn't seem like the phone for you.

I'm in the middle of playing FFVI on my PSP. Good times.

Sweden. I should go there sometime.

Oh, wow. That's absolutely shitty. Does it use data for its location services or does it have built-in GPS? If it's constantly tracking where you are via LTE/3G, I can see it losing that much in 2 hours, but still... ouch.
