Re: Help Identify Cap from Hi-Res Photo
I was thinking that was the case, because of the vents.
I didn't pay that much attention when the case was open, only when I examined the macro photos did the vent lines become apparent.

Help Identify Cap from Hi-Res Photo
[url=http://www.bgavinsound.com/externals/prolite2.2013.09.21-13.jpg]Hi-Res Photo[/url]
I'm trying to identify these caps.
At first glance, I thought solid polymer, but they appear to have vent marks.
I've been through the various sites, and cannot find anything close to a match.
They are installed on a Crest ProLite 2.0 power amplifier board.[url=http://www.bgavinsound.com/externals/prolite2.2013.09.21-13.jpg]Hi-Res Photo[/url]

Unsolder Technique for Through-Hole Jacks
I'm looking for advice on how to properly de-solder a through-hole multi-pin jack from a board.
This is a "pod" type modular jack with two rows of three flat pins.
Mounting style is "through hole".
My question is about the right tool for solder removal, and a technique for cleanly removing the old jack.
I was able to remove the part with my Hakko 936 and a sucker bulb, but it was ugly work.
I'd like to know how to cleanly remove all the old solder without risking damage to the solder pads....

Substitute SEPC 820 for KZG?
My question is about substituting a Sanyo SEPC 820/4.0 for a bulged KZG 820/6.3.
If this is not appropriate, it is better recommended to use 1000/6.3 instead?
These are field caps, not located in the VRM.
The board is a Dell 775 BTX from a Dimension 5150.
I took a gamble and replaced the three bulgers, but the board is still living in Beeping Hell.
This was a basket case dumped in my lap.
It came without CPU, so I bought a $20 P4/650 off eBay.

Re: netflix, the network destoryer
Actually, no.
My geographic location ties me to PacBell/SBC/AT&T or whatever the name du jour is currently.
The techs are generally rude, and not much help.
Evidently they are forced to work 6 days a week, but paid for 5.
Salaried professionals, and all that.
The network performance is generally sub-par, and prone to overload.
My neighborhood is 60 year old copper, and fiber is not in our future.
I use an ISP in the area who uses AT&T only for the carrier....

Re: netflix, the network destoryer
It will snow in Hell before I switch to cable.
As a heads-up, some 780,000 people have departed from Comcast, DirectTV, et al.
In my area, Comcast is unreliable and predatory.
They charge late fees for a service you BUY IN ADVANCE.
My friend pays some $150/month for his bundled all-in-one Comcast baloney.
I run a business on my internet lines, which Comcast demands some $180/month for service.
If they catch you with a server on a non-business line, off you go.
Comcast monitors...

Re: netflix, the network destoryer
I think there is a real need for a caching multi-media server.
For example, you have a standard 1.5 DSL line which is not adequate for streaming at any decent quality.
Your streaming server negotiates a connection to NetFlix, and begins to download (cache) your video in advance. If necessary, 30~60 minutes ahead of time.
This provides a big buffer that is replenished at 1.5 mbps, and slowly empties because it drains at a faster bit rate.
This will piss off the copy protection types and...

Re: Hardware RAID
We run rows of Symmetrix.. drives go bad all the time... EMC comes in and replaces them.
Life in Big Storage.
Best of luck on the RADI10.
I'm skeptical of Windows+firmware (Intel ICH), so I restrain myself to RAID1 only.
The points made above about TLER issues with consumer level drives are valid.
I've had a couple of arrays crap out, so I try a rebuild on the array first.
If it succeeds, I chalk it up to TLER burps and keep an eye on it.

Re: Those f#@%&*n!! Intel LGA775 push pins..
I'm running the Mugen-II cooler on 775 and 115x Gigabyte boards.
These come with a very sturdy backplate and work very well.
Note: be sure to check for soldered cap stubs in the bracket field.
One of my GA boards was sticking up too high, so I snipped it down.
VRM cooling is no longer a problem on the newer boards with VRM heat pipes and a cross-flow cooler such as the Mugen-II.
I run mine with a pair of 800 rpm Scythe 120mm fans in push-pull.
This provides max cooling and silent operation....

Re: Hardware RAID
Back on track, I would be interested in finding a hardware RAID card suitable for ESX 4 (vmware).
Most of my operating environment is now on VM, but it would be nice to have the underlying disk system at RAID1 (mirror).
As noted above, the consumer/desktop drives present potential problems to ICH raid.
I run ICH10 as RAID1 anyway, because potential for a problem is less impact than a single disk failure and guaranteed data loss.
Yes, it takes two days to rebuild a 2+2 TB RAID1, but the data is preserved.

Re: How not to build a PC
This is about the same as stress testing an egg on a railroad track.
The egg isn't much good after the test.
Why do you expose your gear to such detrimental conditions?
Do you think the processor 'heals itself' after coming back down from severe temps?
If you want to stress test your hardware, give it optimum running conditions (read: cooling) and drive it to maximum performance. Prime95, etc will do the job for you.

Re: HP Netraid 4si Firmware Upgrades/Drivers
If you can identify the PCI ID, you can probably find drivers from Driverpacks.Net.
You will need:
VEN_xxxx
DEV_xxxx
SUBSYS_xxxxyyyy
Very often, the SUBSYS won't be a perfect match, and the drivers work just fine. The first two have to match.

Re: New Gigabyte motherboard PC won't post
The continuous rebooting might be a cause. A lot of these boards do a cold restart by shutting off power first. This constant in-rush peak over several hours isn't part of the design process.
I've placed a good number of these boards with clients. None have failed.
All are running business systems, most are powered up forever.

Re: Speedstream 5100 DSL Modem
Yes, mine are always shot in hires for those who want to zoom in.
I never post photos, only links to photos.
This group was annoying to shoot.
It was a quickie job using a high intensity desktop lap with the Nikon on a tripod. The exposures were so long, I still got shake which you can see in the enlarged images. Certainly not my best work.
I have an ancient 80's Fluke DVM, dunno if it has capacitance check or not.
I recapped all the 1000/6.3 with MCZ 1000/10v. The operating voltage...

Re: Speedstream 5100 DSL Modem
I get to answer my own question:
There is a single screw under the label on the back of the modem.
There are six push-catches on the back cover.
These are at each of the four corners. Push them in to unlatch the corner.

Speedstream 5100 DSL Modem
I'm having difficulty figuring out how to open the case on this modem with destroying it.
Q: anybody know how its done, safely?
I'm thinking this one has bad caps.
My internet service is spotty at 6mb due to distance from the central office.
I do get 5.1 most of the team, but it craps out in the evenings.
I switched out the modem with a 4100 model, and ran a direct cable from the MPOE to my router. Of course, it ran fine at 5.1 mb all night.
I'm still thinking the 5100 needs a recap, but cannot figure out how to open it...
