Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.
Actually you are right.. I think I was dividing that by 10 in my head.
anyway.. you will be pleased to know that I thought I would wait until these SSD's etc sort themselves out.. its a lot of money.. unclear whats best and seems that if you actually 'write' anything to them.. then they will break.
so i bought 2 TB of good old 7200RPM for £90.
the fact is that I have a fantastic processor.. but kinda average RAM.. and a BIOS that takes around 30 seconds to figure itself out.
so SSD would be nice.. but in terms of boot times Im still screwed.
2 1TB drives in Raid should be plenty for a bit of email and ed42

20 second BIOS? Sounds just wrong... Mine is 5 years old and uses 4-5. Sure you dont have a fast-boot setting in there somewhere? I do, and it skips memory testing etc...
yeah all previous systems I have had were fast .. in the <5 second range.. this thing likes to do a lot of usb tests i think.. I have setup any and all optins in bios to skip or speed up if possible but thats as good as it gets.. to be honest it then boots very fast after that.. and well.. I guess I boot once per day so usually grab a cuppa tea whilst it sorts itself out
