Tech / Need recommendations for external HD & enclosure

My only recommendation is that IF you buy drive & enclosure separately, BE SURE they are compatible.  By that I mean that some enclosures will work with drives upto 1tb but not beyond an some will only work with drives above 1tb.  (Expensive personal experience w(OWC).  Buying complete enclosure/drive puts that situation out of your hands and back on the seller...  Has to do with chip set internal to case.
YMMV....

I would totally agree. I just bought (2) 4TB drives and none of them are seen as such in my OWC Mercury Elite AL Pro enclosure. I’m speaking with support at OWC and they’re hinting my chipset May be the older one and won’t allow me to see 4TB. All I can see is 2TB. Bummer. At least I have a USB HD caddy that is able to work with one of the drives.

I've been loving SL since I installed it about a week ago.  I love the speed improvement, quick startup and shut down, etc.

2009 / Apple Notes on iPod Touch

« on: September 11, 2009, 04:44:55 AM »

Wow.  It's been a ong time since I posted here.
A never ending source of frustration for me has been syncing my Apple Notes (in Mail) over to my iPod Touch.  How in the world do I get the notes on the iPod in alphabetical order like I have them on my Macbook?  To find a note on the iPod I have to go to Search.  Any ideas?  Right now, the notes on my iPod are all jumbled.

2009 / So, what are you doing with your iPhone?

« on: December 21, 2008, 11:36:30 AM »

I know I haven't chimed in here for quite awhile, but for what it's worth, I think the iPhone is way overpriced.  Instead, I picked up the iPod Touch which is just as functional.  I love it.  I have BibleReader on mine, airbusdriver, as well as a lot of other neat apps.

2008 / TechTool Pro 462 Update available

« on: August 13, 2008, 08:39:51 AM »

I'll agree- that upgrade is reasonable.  The complaint is for all the little hooks I bit just to keep it working with every OS upgrade.  Your making a huge leap where some of us have gone with every little leap along the way, thus requiring more TTP upgrades.

2008 / TechTool Pro 462 Update available

I think Micromat's pricing scheme is totally criminal.  I've tried to keep up with a working TTP but, after repeated fees just to have a version compatible with Tiger/Leopard, I'm sorry, but I've bailed out.  Now I have useless copies of TTP, just because I got caught up in keeping up-to-date.  Any they never even add any features.  Just compatibility.  Sorry Micromat.  You've lost me.

I've enjoyed my Powermac G5 for quite some time now.  I thought about upgrading to a MacPro, but the G5 is still fine for what I need.  Congrats.
