2.5" drives for server instead of 3.5"?
Is it a good idea to use 2.5" drives in a server that's up 24x7? One part of me says "less power, less heat, that's good for them and the server and they are quieter too" and another part of me thinks that notebook drives fail more often. Then again, they get carted around all over the place, so their life in a notebook is kind of rough compared to sitting a metal box in a corner their entire life. Opinions? Reliability is my main goal. If 3.5's are more reliable, I will go that way. POinters to any "life span" test sites appreciated. Thank...

Tcl crashed(core dump) under IBM AIX 5.3 when use "string compare" to compare 2 big buffer
Hi, I found a problem of TCL under IBM AIX 5.3, if I use some tcl code to compare 2 big files(size > 18M) , I found the tcl will core dump and report message: "unable to realloc 36882016 bytes IOT/Abort trap (core dumped) " I do a test and found maybe it is a special problem of TCL on AIX. Other Unix platforms(hpux,sunos,linux) does not have this problem. The test code is as below: # test "compare 2 big file(>18M) with string compare" --- test.tcl-- # step 1 create 2 big files, size > 18M set string "" for {set i 0} {$i < 512} {incr i} { a...

2.5" to 3.5" hard drive connection problem
I have some old laptop drives that I want to get some files off of. I purchased a 2.5 to 3.5 drive adapter from CompUSA. I am using an older PC that has a 40pin IDE cable coming off of the second IDE port. The drive can not be seen in bios, and it appears to not even spin up. The connector on the hard drive is what I call a knuckle connection. It appears to wrap around a male plug in the laptop. I removed that cable where it connects to the drive, then attach the connector to the male pins there. There are four pins left to the side, I believe I need to use them as a master slave selec...

2.5" or 3.5" for external drive attached to iBook?
I am not an expert on HDs and am having trouble choosing between 2.5" notebook drives or 3.5" desktop drives for an external firewire drive. Its primary use would be as data backup for a mini I plan to buy next month. Most days I would probably start it up once and run the backup software and then turn it off. 1-2 a week I would take the drive with my laptop and run it for about 3-6 hours at a stretch. One of the things I need to do is take a laptop, scanner and drive with me to scan long documents. I don't do anything which requires a fast drive such as video, photoshop...

convert String "1;2;3;4;5;" to Array [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
I'm trying to convert a String of numbers that are separated by semicolons to an Array---totally for fun, to stretch my ruby understanding, fyi.
