Quite likely because a celestial body that large (~1/12 the diameter of Earth) would snuff out all life on Earth and quite likely break the earth apart. Bear in mind the asteroid, believed to have wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, is calculated to have been only 10km in size. Ergo, why bother calculating such a large event.

Not even enough time to stick your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.

I knew about their fighting only because of the remarkably-dull 2001 movie Pearl Harbor. There is a rousing action sequence, a Michael Bay movie after all, ostensibly including their combat. It isn't particularly accurate; however, it does help one realize that our Army Air Corp, given their standing orders, did their damned best.

More or less "What he said."

If you change the processor you should be OK. If you change the MB you probably should just back up data, re-install Windows, and re-install the software you use.

I don't know cameras that well. I is, however, a computer expert, more or less. (Remember kids, an expert is an old drop of water under pressure.)

First a couple of questions:

1. Have you tested the enclosures with disks in them?
I.e. - the next few questions.

2. Did they mount?
You should see them appear in Window File Explorer.

3. Did your system ask to install software?
Believe it or not, this is entirely possible.

4. Did you see the drive capacity you expected?
If the drive is terabytes large it is possible that the enclosure
hardware won't see it all.

5. Were you able to write to the drives?
If you cannot write and read to the disk, the enclosures are
useless. BTW it can't be read then write. That's just
silly!


And now, I have only spent a few minutes (albeit expert minutes) using Google. I found a product, which might be the software sold with the devices, at this address:

[url]http://www.backup4all.com/[url]

It is, alas, a commercial product, the cheapest version of it $19.


However, I suspect a couple of things are true which you should consider:

A. You probably can find USB 2.0 and, better, USB 3.0 external
drives of similar or larger capacity for a lot less money than you
might think.

B. Assuming that the current drive size is not large enough, you will
have trouble finding an inexpensive IDE (the hardware connector
in your enclosure) 2.5" drive. IDE drives are no longer made. In
their place is the hardware specification (connection) called SATA.

C. To add salt to the wound of having to use an old-specification
drive, I believe that the IDE spec does not support any disk
drive larger than 500MB.

D. On Amazon you can get an external 1TB (1000GB), USB 3.0, "one
button backup" drive for ~$57. The one I'm looking at is
supposedly Military Drop Tested.

E. If you search Amazon, or likely any other retailer of computer
parts, you will also find cheap enclosures which will support
one-button backup; however, "Caveat emptor!"

HTH (Hope This Helps)

I looked. T'aint no such URL as www.carryspeedstrap.com. However, there is a http://www.carryspeed.com/ on the odd chance someone gets this far into this thread.

If this were a Shoe forum your question would be quite appropriate. However, as you are no doubt aware, this is a photography forum. A forum, where your shoe fetish question is as silly as a camera strap fetish question would be on the Shoe forum.

Wake up grumpy this morning?

That is not what you think it is.

I doubt it will be worse than Disney. Unbridled capitalism at its finest.

Goatse I see... rude.

A re-phrasing of my personal Rule #6, to wit:

If you can't live with the answer don't ask the question.

A corollary to this, specifically for children growing up, "No is an answer."

I bought a Canon 70D body and am very slowly buying EF (not EF-S) lenses. I figure, at worst I'll have a better lens than the sensor. At best I'll be better set should I decide to get a camera with a full frame sensor.

I saw this video yesterday. By the evening I was also seeing claims that it is a fake. I found this link which has some explanations why.

Whether fake or not, the controversy suggests reasons not to believe everything you see on the intertubes.
