BluABK's blog of ... well, pretty much anything, really. I Was Frozen Today! (internal humour)

I am finally able to afford (birthdays FTW) some new HDDs (4x 1 TB for 546 kroner a piece :o price hax(friends FTW)) so I am finally able to convert all of my stash (except games and windows partitions for obvious reasons) to the Linux file system, which means I can finally call stuff whatever I damn well feel like and not have to avoid using any character like colon and the likes.

So yeah, let the conversion of 13 drives commence, this won't take ages at ALL! Oh well it's totally worth it in the end ^_^

So yeah, it is now hosted on BluServ via Drupal.

Well, if you have been following the progress of my blog since I created it back in Joomla you might have noticed the vast number of changes to the theme, and when I migrated to WordPress I was unable to find ANY decent theme for my site at all... So luckily my nice friend and graphics professional Lich was kind enough to design me a proper theme, or rather menu. Then Exodus and I decided that both my blog and BluCoders was to share the same theme, so Exodus is now working on the PHP and web-dev part of the theme.

So due to miscellaneous issues with server and tons of school stuff I haven't had time to work on the blog in a while. Hopefully I will get more time for that now.

So... it is actually at least a week ago since me and Dré did this computer development. So I am sorry for posting it this late, but I really haven't had the time to make a proper article before just now, .

Anyway let's go on, shall we?

Operating Systems:        Windows XP, Windows 7, and various Linux distributions (planning to add mac)

Processor:        Intel Xeon 2.40 GHz (clocked to 3.00 GHz)

Random Access Memory:        4096 MiB (2x 2048 MiB) - Corsair Dominator @ 1066 MHz

Hard Disk Drive(s):        11 in total, mostly Western Digital (all SATA) - approx 5.5 TiB of Data Storage

Graphics card #1:        Nvidia XFX GeForce GTX 260 Black Edition (Overclocked) 666M 896MB PhysX (PhysX handled by secondary gfx card)

Grahpics card #2:        Nvidia 8800 GT (set to solely handle PhysX)

So I just thought I'd mention that a while back me and Dré assembled my new station (BluDesk) and Dré figured out an awesome way to place those two laptop hard disk drives that I had lying around.
