Thanks,
that is reassuring in what we have been expecting basically. So we will continue going this route and i will post again once we get stable!

Or when all the diseases that can be helped by protein folding simulations are cured.
 

Yes. - You choose when to end your involvement with folding@home. - Otherwise i believe there is no scheduled conclusion to the project

My Dad passed from Lung Cancer that had metastasized to his liver which ended his life. I miss him dearly and I dont have much along the lines of a decent PC but Ill use what I can for the cause.
 
Good luck to whomever wins!!!

i5 4690K - With a Tiny bit of over clock on it.
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
16gb DDR3 @ 798MHz
ASRock Z97 Anniversary Mobo
Clearly the EVGA GTX 1070 FTW - I like EVGA!
120gb Samsung SSD 850 EVO
WD  Blue HDD 1T
Seagate SSHD 2TB

Also, please dont vommit! It was my first rig and I sucked at cable management.

This giveaway was a great idea and I am happy that it got my attention! Alzheimer's is a terrible disease that has hurt my family greatly, so I am more than happy to help others avoid the same.

That's why the 2 1070s are being given at random, you could be folding on a Raspi and end up winning one of them

Then its doing well with fitting in with the rest of the "gaming" mice out there.

Don't worry. I am fairly certain the majority of people buy low end just as a rule of thumb. So it is in AMD's best interest to get those parts on the market. I think they went with the enthusiast lineup first to get most of the quirks ironed out to then release the line that the people will get that really dont want to bother with that kind of hassle or dont care to be early adopters of a fresh platform.

I think the OP is talking about video mode, not photo.  For photo, shoot raw and you don't have to worry about aspect ratio and cropping done by the camera until post.

If you are worried about tearing just run the monitor at 60Hz and use Vert Sync.

Going Quantum's mixes on youtube! (currently episode 26) - Dirty electro mix and smooth dnb

Well on Monday we have been cleaning around the house and that old computer (the one we used to rescue data from a degraded RAID 5) was still sitting around without a side panel when we had a visitor from outside. No idea if the cats chased it in or if it just was lost. but after a while of chasing it around the bedroom to get it out it ended up in this cozy space.
I present to you: Computer Lizard
Anybody else has had computers and wildlife clash?

i think this has been answered now, i made a general thrad about this kind of issue, so i am gona link it here to help others finding this thread in the future:
 

Side note about data rescue... I am sure most people who are more geeky than us and run a Linux system permanently as their dailies will not find this helpful, but to us and some that are still on windows despite all the privacy issues because we wanna game, there is a software from paragon that allows you to mount extfs on windows. also another that does the same with hfs. i have them both since i used macs a lot years ago and now we got the other for our rescued linux partition.
 
TL;DR Use Linux partitions on Windows with ExtFS for Windows (they offer a free trial).

Great to hear you got your data back 

Status update:
Getting another of the same RAID controller did not solve the issue. Everything stayed unchanged. So of to the next step we ordered a plain and simple SATA controller with enough ports, since we only have laptops that are current and thus no other option than to retrofit an older machine on the cheap. We use a recovery software we found that rebuilds the filesystem currently to a USB drive. It is painfully slow and will only be able to be read by Linux, but that should be fine to rescue files. Next report will follow.

I have to admid that I never worked with 3ware cards but as leadeater mentioned your card is very probalby buggy. My approach would be to get a new (identical) RAID card (short look on ebay shows some used 98000-8 ports cards from 10$ up).  Importatnt is to use a similar manufacturer and the card should not be older.
You can then attach the drives to the new controller and it is possible that the card will recognize the array and start a rebuild.
 
 
 

I don't have knowledge on this topic to give Next Step advice but I do have a question. This old Pentium III RAID server. Not counting the 1 drive RAID redundancy involved in a RAID5 configuration. There was no backup for the server?
 
In my own servers configuration my server provides two major services. Backup & remote access. I keep all my files in a RAID on my main computer and the server is an entire copy with its own built-in redundancy. If the RAID in the server fails and is found in the same degraded state as yours I can simply dump the configuration and all the data. Wipe the drives, recreate the RAID, format the newly build array and copy all the information back from my desktop RAID. I've never needed to do this but if it happens I can. So their's no backup to the server I take it?

My guess would be the RAID card is faulty, I've had about three 3ware cards do the exact same thing.
 
As far as RAID recovery goes you actually shouldn't use the current RAID card to do it, use an HBA or onboard SATA controllers. You want to treat the disks as non-RAID disks then run up a recovery tool such as Recover My Files point it to the 4 disks and tell it there was a RAID 5 array using these disks with X stripe size.
