Whoohoo Just won a 400GB Drive

Post by Giraffe }{unter »

I entered the
Rojakpot Forums
contest by following a link from TheForumz . About an hour of my time and two weeks later I'm the proud owner of a Seagate barracuda 400GB SATA drive retail $355.00.

Now they got a new contest and for some Mushkin memory if anyone is interrested head over and Join up. Contest Starts tomorrow and runs for 1 week. I don't need the memory so I figured I would share this time :icon31:

Grand Prize = 512MB Mushkin PC4000 Dual Pack

I tried theforumz after Q3W went down. Found out it was shit and one guy, who IIRC was the owner, was a massive dick.

I probably am, but that doesn't mean I actually even visit that shithole.

Now I see why you didn't like it there, not the plce for those with bad attitudes. Although can't seem to figure out how Gut's managed to get you so upset with that one past you made :confused:

It served it's purpose and helped some lost members find raw's place

I'm sure the feelings are mutual.

So have you gotten XP to recognize all of the space? How did you do it, if so?

I registered at theforumz once just to see what it was like

I only made 5 posts and never made another post there again because

1) its fucking boring

and

2) their server is slower than a three-toed sloth taking a shit

its not that hard. As long as your mobo will let you use a HDD past the 137GB barrier, if not there are patches, then there should be no issue.

I should be getting the drive next week. I'm sticking it in the Media Center PC (more pics) I built. I have an 80 gig and a 250 in there now. I'm just going to partition it so that I have 80 for the OS, music and Photos and the rest will be for TV recording. I record between 60 - 90 shows a week. so it will come in handy :D
