Yeah. The motherboard is SATA-ready and handles my 250GB master drive fine. I tried connecting the new HD to the primary SATA connector as well -- same thing happened. I got me a bum HD, I think. Or maybe it's that 11-pin thingamabob they talked about, but I can't be arsed to fiddle with it beyond what I already did. Feh.

Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Right, SATA. Duh.
I did some more digging around and someone else said they fixed their problem with their Maxtor 300GB by turning off Auto Detect in the BIOS on all drive channels they didn't have a drive connected to. Quick and easy and might be worth a shot.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
PHP question: I've got a multi-dimensional associative array. Is there a simple compact way (i.e. without a foreach loop) to sum all the values of a key in the second dimension across all the arrays in the first dimension?
My multi-dimensional array is made up of a group of arrays, each representing a product for sale. Within each of these array are keys like "quantity", "cost", "item_name", etc. I want to be able to (for example) sum up the total number of items being ordered. I'd hoped that syntax such as array_sum($data[]["quantity"]) would work, but it doesn't. Any suggestions?

Can some of y'all go here and tell me if you see the site? I'm trying to find out how much the dns has propagated.
(I'll probably delete this later.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Random Tiger question. So...the upgrade has gone well. Everything is playing nicely together. But I'm having trouble figuring out how to change a few features. One...the system makes me log in at startup with my admin password. Two...Entourage waits for me to click send/receive, whereas Mail used to just go get the mail for me. Three...the most troublesome...I keep getting a message asking if I want to stay connected to the internet. If I wanted to disconnect, I would!
I've checked system preferences and individual program preferences, including help searches on the topic and can't for the life of me find where to turn off/change these settings.
What should I do!?

Thanks, everyone. The client couldn't see the site, and I was trying to make sure the problem was indeed at their end.
