Updates of Blogs & Systems

Concerning updates to the blog I may not do them everyday as I have been. I was doing the blog updates everyday because I wanted to see how the software was reacting.
I will also be updating my systems especially my main system that I use everyday. I will also increase the storage on my music server and move another disk over to my backup music server and take a disk from that system to add to storage on my main system.
I have not upgraded my main system in a long time. Besides updating the storage I will also be updating my All-In-Wonder 7200 AGP 32mb. I will move to the All-In-Wonder 9800 Pro AGP 128mb. I will also update motherboard and CPU but have not decided to what. Along with this I will be placing this system back in a larger case as I had before to adequately hold my 6 sca SCSI hard drives, Plextor SCSI CDROM, Plextor CDRW, DVD reader, DVDRW, Adaptec 29160, NCR SCSI, Creative Labs Audigy, and 100bt LAN. I will keep the DLT, scanner and printer external, of course.
I really need to do this since I need the speed to finish projects faster and need the storage for the same reason. The current case for my main system is smaller than I had before and I never intended to stick with it this long. The air flow because of the amount of hard drives I have is not sufficient. Currently I have my case open which has been the case with me for over a decade and a house fan blowing into the case to keep the temps down. With this new case I will be able to place several large computer fans directly into the problem areas inside of the case. I will also cut down on hard drives by getting a few larger sized hard drives. Since I always go for performance with near the latest SCSI hard drive technology this will be a cost.
Anyway I need to do this so I will not have this in the back of my mind and I can work my other projects without tip-toeing around my systems.
I always go for piece of mind first as that frees you to tackle other issues. I have quite a few and am about to start swinging at them like Barry Bonds selectively but efficiently.
