I have an old SATA 3 drive 4 width X 6 long by 1 high. It looks like most of the USB cases for turning SATA into external drives are for 2.5 inch Sata. Are there cases out there for this larger size? Also I see SATA USB "kits", SATA USB "cases" and SATA USB "connectors". I want a case with a USB cable that I just slip my SATA into and it becomes an external drive I plug into a USB port. (probably after reformmatting) Am I looking for a "case" or a "Kit"?

Well, there should be options for a 3.5" SATA drive. This kind of device is a handy one:
It's a SATA dock. You just plug your drive into it and hook it up via USB. Not the most cosmetically appealing of devices, but it can be really handy if you need to read something off of a hard drive real quick and work as your external drive the rest of the time.

Thank Gud. That is what I was looking for. It just seem there a lot of cases out there with no power supply, and no USB cable included.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The fuck?
SERIOUSLY.
Take me off the google.
Or capitalise it right.

So there's no fucking was the magenta ink cartridge I just replaced is actually empty. Anyone know how to get an Epson printer to ignore it's obviously incorrect ink-ometer and print anyway?

Take out the cartridge, shake it, put it back? Works for HP lasers. Also when you have it out make sure you took out all the sticky tape they put on it for protection in packaging. Leaving it on can make a cartridge act like it is empty.

Okay, DNS services are making my head hurt, so I'm going to check and see if anyone here has been through this.
I'm currently setting up an OS X Lion Server in the office. I want to expose some of the services on this server to the internet. If I had a static IP this would be simple, alas, I do not, and the amount of money that it would take to covert my connection over to a static IP is prohibitive.
As a result I'm planning to set up the service through a Dynamic DNS provider like dyn.com. I use them to proved a connection to my filemaker server on my desktop and it's been working great. The problem is I'm just getting confused on what I can set up.
For my filemaker server I'm just using one of the dyn.com free hostnames, so my server is something like diablo.biz.dyndns.com. Since it's just a link that we use internally it's been fine. Now that I'm putting more services online and I may eventually want to use part of this to expose an FTP section to clients I'd like to have all of this work through a subdomain off of my diablosound.com domain. Something like server.diablosound.com seems like a fair option. The thing that I'm not clear on is how to get this all setup without running the risk of disrupting my other services. My Diablo Sound website is hosted through dreamhost, and they also do my domain name registry. Am I fine using a subdomain from this domain name with another services like dyn.com?
So yeah, anyone have experience with something like this?
