I got a new home rig:

Intel i5 processor 2.9 GHz
32GB DDR3 1600 MHz
Kingston 128GB SSD
Samsung 250GB SSD
WD 2TB SATA
2x 22" Asus LED monitors

This thing is lightning fast. I was playing with Server 2012 and it would boot in under 10 seconds.

I just found this: http://www.mypcbackup.com/ Seems pretty cool and free. Could be too good to be true though. I use Google Drive and Dropbox for storing documents, haven't considered doing PC backups to the cloud. ***UPDATE*** http://www.mypcbackup.com is not a free service. Although it is cheap. T...

SSDs are gaining popularity in enterprise SAN applications. There is one company that sells only SSD SANs. They claim each node delivers 50,000 IOPS and up to 24TB per node. Sounds cool but I am sure it is expensive. I think it only supports 10G networks too.

I just ordered parts for a PC and I put in two SSDs (OS and VMs) and one 3TB SATA for data and backups.

I wonder how much of a performance hit SSDs take when in a RAID5 config.

If you had a place to back up the date first, add a drive to the RAID, do a rebuild if necessary and then restore your backup, that would be an option. But jflynn is correct, higher end controllers will allow you to add drives to the array. Do some research on your controller to see if you can do th...

Unfortunately, the RAID would have to be rebuilt everytime you add a disk.

Personally, I wouldn't use SSD's for backups. I'd stick with large SATA drives for that and keep the SSDs for when performance matters.

If your NAS device allows it, you could switch to RAID6 and that two drive failure would have been no big deal.

There is also a regedit for autologin: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315231 Keep in mind that the password is in plaintext in the reg key. There are a bunch of Group Policy settings you can enable that will lock the desktop down in the event you get a savvy user. You will probably want to force IE...

It's a possibility and cheap to check. I had some machines a while back that had dead CMOS batteries. I don't remember their symptoms but I do remember them behaving oddly. Switched out the battery and they were fine.

Does anything get displayed? Do you see any of the intial boot up stuff before Windows starts to load or does it crap out after Windows startup begin? If you see nothing at all then I would lean more towards your monitor or cabling. If you see the POST messages but it then dies once Windows starts u...

The group policy settings above will only affect Internet Explorer unfortunately. For Chrome you may need to look at this link:

For Firefox there may be another method and would require some research.

Is there a reason why you are running HiJack This? I've seen some malware do this. Can you save the log file to another location?

You could try it if you could pick one up relatively cheap but I have the feeling it won't work.
