  1. Hello all,

    Well I was clearing out some space and found two Fon+ which is good :D but they are running the 3.0.2r1 :(

    Now I have been looking through the posting and searching the web and although I have found the how-to over at http://www.fonboard.nl/w/index.php/HowTo_F...plus_unlocking2 it just does not seem to work for me. When I try to run the 2201-unlocking I get the following error:-

    Telnet for RedBoot not enabled

    Then it drops back to the cmd line, anyone know whats wrong. Furthermore, has anyone got a guide to how they did it.

    Thanks in advanced.

  2. Hello all,

    Just in case anyone was interested the BenchTec, extreme overclocking and cooling event at Scan was very Cool (pun intended :))

    Not only did we get to see behind the scenes at Scan including where they build the 3XS systems, but also the where house (or at least more then you can normally see). The highlight was the 6.350Ghz on a L2N cooled Core 2 Duo, in fact they were only 50Hz away from matching the world record.

    They had a load of video cameras so I am sure that the BenchTec guys will be posting the videos soon

  3. I've been planning to come since talks first arose, I just never come on the forums, more of an irc lad myself, but anyways, Moonlit and myself were looking at some Hostels in london, I'm sure if you ask him nicely enough, he can post the links to the ones he was looking at.

    Cool

    One small problem the Scan event is Bolton :D Anyway I will be there on Saturday (in a red animal testing top) so anyone who see's a guy in a red top with spec's please come over and say hi!!

    I hope to see some of you their!

  4. Hello all,

    Anyone going to the BenchTec, extreme overclocking and cooling event at Scan this Saturday?

    I don't work for either of them, but like many I am sure :) i have been a long standing customer of scans.

    Anyway BenchTec are going to demonstrate the basic overclocking with a hands on approach. And once the talk is over the fun begins showing you overclocking like you’re never seen it before – with LN2 (Liquid Nitrogen)!

    For all the details have a look at the Scan website or take a look at this from the Bench Tec guys site

    Oh and did I say they have free bees :D not too sure what they are going to be but still free is free! :)

    Anyway I will be going so if anyone wants to meet-up then let me know.

    Later's.

  5. Juts been sent a mail from a guy trying to organise one inthe north west uk..........will have a look see, seems interesting.

    Well let us know if they do set up one I would not mind a look see :D

  6. Why not just undertake a security assessment/penetration test of the Hak5 systems, or a lab setup to show the steps involved.

    This could get round a large amount of the "educational" non-white hat problems, and if they undertook what is known as a "black box" assessment which assumes no prior knowledge of the infrastructure to be tested ;)

    Anyway, just my 2cents.

  7. Writing large files from movie encoding always takes a hit, even in a raid setup, but reading and normal operations speed up in a raid setup. Gaming should be improved in this scenario, although, if one drive fails, you lose all your data in this setup. Just be sure to have a separate backup of important data, and maintain it regularly. h3%5kr3w's got my vote, 10,000 RPM drives would be the way to go, but more importantly, max out your RAM as well.

    Thanks for the info,

    I know all about the pain of striped Vs mirrored and if I had the money I would be going for RAID 1+0 :) but I am not sure I can convince the wife I need 4x HDD :D

    As for the WD velociraptors I may have to look at the cost of those bad boys :D

  8. helpme0k,

    I can feel your pain :( I have worked in a number of location all over the world and I know that different country's have very different views on what can and can not be viewed, big time in the middle east and even more so in the far east ;)

    From the sound of it you are in one of those locations, in which case from my experience you will not have much luck even if you can find the service you are after that work's :(. The reason I say this is for me even my SSL (443) was being broken and M-In-M proxy'ed.

    The way I got around it was to use sat links. I know this may not be feasible depending on the country/location but this would give you a dedicated link.

    Anyway hope this helps.

  9. Hello all,

    I am looking to get either 2x 500GB+ SATA2 HDD in RAID 0, or just one big 1TB drive.

    Now the question is which is better, this will be my gaming and general day to day rig so it will need to take that into account.

    I know that RAID 0 should provide me better performance, but I currently have 2 Western Digital Caviar Blue 640GB set-up in RAID 0 and although they work I do have some poor HDD performance. I see it big time when I am encoding moves for DVD, so this is why I am thinking should I just byte the bullet and get 1 big drive such as the Samsung SpinPoint F1 HD103UJ.

    Any help would be welcome.

  10. Hello all,

    Well I was wondering if anyone from the northwest (or anywhere else in the UK) area fancied meeting up before July for a few drink and a bit chin wag.

    If anyone is interested then let me know and we can sort it.
