I am looking to buy an external hard drive and came across two examples of external enclosures that come with mounting racks that install into any 3.5 or 5.25 drive bay.  Somehow I managed to forget the site I found this on.  I found one of the hard drives but have been unable to discover any more.  The enclosure I found was a ...

I've had my rig for a little over 5 months now.  I've always experienced some issues with the PC (if I play a bunch of videos back to back, or skip through them in WMP, my comp crashes), but I didn't think much of them.  Within the past month, my PC has been crashing with some regularity.  Vista said it was due to the NVIDIA SATA ...
