stillhq.com : Mikal, a geek from Canberra living in Silicon Valley


	This page documents the various toys I have in my collection, and what I needed to do to get them to work, normally with Linux. I've done this because it's handy to be able to get them to work again with new machines or whatever. I'll be doing a little bit of back capture of old toys over time as I feel in the mood.


	Tick of death It's times like this that I don't mind that people make fun of me for using RAID 1+0 on my home server. One of my Seagate 400gb PATA drivers emits a ticking noise and is no longer detected by any of my Linux boxes. I don't think that's a good sign for the data on that machine. Luckily, the RAID array can run in degraded mode for a bit until a new disk arrives. Now to find out how much Seagate warranty support sucks.
