  • damn dude how much did all that stuff cost you???
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Well the USB drives are about a $100 each, so they aren't that expensive - but Amanda and I both spent some of our rent money... and they we had a lot of help through donations :)

    nice... I hate all the packaging that comes with stuff. Every time I buy something new my studio is a wreck for a week. Good luck and keep backing stuff up!
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Hey James - I know... the packaging is just crazy :( so wasteful.

    sweet man, I need to get me some of those.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Hey Clintus :) I do like them - they have cool blue lights.

    i'm glad y'all were able to get all the drives, and i'm hoping all works out. that being said, you still need a raid.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Hey Leslie :) I'm glad too - as of now everything is backed up and safe *knock on wood*... I'm thinking of buying a fire-proof safe from Target... cause now I'm just paranoid.

    Sweet. Do you have them all hooked up at once? Do you have a usb hub you'd recommend?

    I've only got four drives right now so they're Paul, John, George and Ringo. Also dork. I just bought my first LaCie after my maxtor failed and I lost some data. They definitely seem worth the investment.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Hey Tyler :) Yea, I have everything mounted normally cause they are always backing each other up (with Super Duper)... I bought a Belkin powered USB hub and it seems to be awesome. And I just daisy chained the firewire drives.

    Those are awesome names for drives :) which band are you gonna pick names from next?

    this is awesome!
    I am glad to hear you are backing everything up.
    I get super paranoid my computer crashes and I lose everything.
    Glad to hear the project is moving along so smoothly =]
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Thanks :) I think I am always on edge about that now... but I'm much better prepared for it now.

    Your bedroom kind of looks the the engine room aboard the Enterprise now =0)
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 1 year ago
    Is that a good thing ;) or a bad thing. I'm sure either way it's a fire hazard...

    im thinking of getting a internal 2tb drive for my comp which is around £208 cavaier green (very latest tech) but i think i might have to up date my pentium for speed as i also have a wd 500gb external..

    i think the main prob my end is not enough usb sockets thats why i thought of the 2tb..
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 8 months ago
    2TB internal! That would be awesome - I want one of those in my MacBook Pro.

    I use a powered USB hub that Belkin makes - it's really great, no dropping since I've got that.

  • Phil Hough 9 months ago
    i hope the H/D's do the job for you mike :)
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 8 months ago
    And yes - the drives have been working really great! :)
