OWC vs WD (or) Drobo - Photographer


hi all,
have owned referb 1tb wd mybook studio for..(i'm amazed this..) 5 years , it's still running strong. however, it's getting full , have business, need more serious storage.

i'm wedding photographer main use storing/working large raw files , big amounts of data. video once in while, i'll editing off 1 of them possibly. (a separate drive video)

i'm on fence: i've been extremely pleased wd consider going them again, however, seem 1 who's lucked out having drive last long. else seems have them fail often. live 10 miles down road owc, , know company , lot of people seem happy drives.

so: in opinion; better option: owc, or wd?.. (or drobo?)

need:
  • fw800
  • must fast
  • good quality , going last

side note; have backblaze, backed cloud. obviously, still want fast, reliable, , going last me long possible.

side note: i've considered drobo, not sold on it. had friend who's drobo crashed , lost work. hoping gain thunderbolt, thunderbolt expensive it's not worth looking at. i'm open though.

thank
 

another photographer here: buy owc enclosures. buy empty enclosure , install own drive. depends on brand of drive owc using when in market...

fw800 enclosure.

can count on owc being bootable. having purchased enclosures not boot macs i'm done taking chance on other enclosures.

[DIY] 20min Mac Mini Bracket


hi,

in country found 2 resellers sell mac mini bracket mount under desk, cost fortune (80 usd). saw on amazon, charge because switzerland not in eu.
anyway figured build own. after sketching ideas, went metal retailers , didn't sell wanted, decided go hardware store , let creativity go.

had different options, wasn't planning on drilling hole, want mount on under desk double sided tape have @ home.

ended buying:
2x l-shaped metal piece 200x40 mm / 1.50 usd each
2x l-shaped metal piece 40x40 mm / 80 cents each
wanted u-shaped 1 didn't have it, , if have had longer 280x40 have bend it, 200x40 longest had.
screws , bolts had @ home, used m4x20 ( shorter m4x10)
long l-shaped metal piece, got use work free, i'm guessing cost 8 usd. (800x6x3.5)
[​img]

measured off 2x 220mm pieces , took saw...somebody gonna pissed when see did garden chairs. :eek:

[​img]

here is

[​img]

next thing i'm going ensemble mac mini gonna "stand" on.

[​img]

put tape around it, don't scratch mac when put in etc. said screws long, have sawed them off, i'm not going see under desk...

[​img]

how looks finished, after 10 -15 min of work. know doesn't great or professional, cool thing if ever need add new stuff instance external drive, can add on this. l-shaped thingy , add on, or put on top, lego build set.

[​img]

[​img]

forgot add tape, , expensive part of all, of course have drilled hole have been cheaper, can't drill in desk.

[​img]

QuickTime Pro on Windows video editing. Borked.


ok, i'm confident windows version of quicktime rather terrible. , know technically mac apps forum, , haven't attempted same procedure on 1 of macs yet won't same result (can hope so).

isn't question on how fix issue either, i'm bit perplexed how shoddy qt on windows , makes me wonder if upgrading pro worth expense. please feel free tell me mac version wouldn't behave same way...

basically, i've got handbrake encoded video here, going cut tiny, 7 second long snippet out of , save snipped elsewhere. used selection sliders select said snippet. qt being qt, sliders jerk forward , backward many frames couldn't position them in right places. although i'm sure holding shift , using arrow keys used move highlighted slider 1 frame @ time, reason doesn't work video. or video i've tried on lately come think of it.

did make larger selection of snippet, copy it, open new player , paste that. quicktime crashes. how did around this? found if instead copy selection, rather open new player, use control+a select whole video, delete it, paste. same effect, without qt crashing.

ok, use sliders again, , can move sliders more accurate frame frame basis trim again actual snippet want use. use 'save as', choose 'self contained' , give new name , there. done... quicktime crashes again. has still created video file despite crashing.

when open new video file , play it, works perfectly. in quicktime. plays 7 seconds; there 7 seconds of video , 7 seconds of sound, , it's in sync.

when play in wmp however, there in fact 12 seconds of video , 7 seconds of sound. meaning it's out of sync , has 5 seconds of no sound, video @ end of file.

quicktime windows, sir, borked. /rant
 

try converting video format not use key frames before edit. dc or aic.

Do the ipad 2 cases fit the new ipad


hello,

going investing , getting 64g+4g lte ipad 3 , wondering if maybe since ipad 2 , new ipad 1 milimeter difference ipad 2 cases fit ipad 3, maybe zagg keyboard case , otterbox and/or snap on plastic cases.

replies appreciated :d
 

anything requires them "snap" place, pretty no. can't 100% positive many quality cases have no tolerance increased size because prefect fit ipad 2. if you're using leather or stretchy case give , allow still fit in.

love(d) 2009 imac. few days ago, hard drive gave ghost. no problem, said myself. i've been backed time machine whole time. apple rad!

took imac shop , ha guy replace hard drive blank one. used lion thumb drive (i running lion) attempt boot , restore. fail. circle-slash.

used old leopard dvd. told me, "you can't install mac os x on computer, can restore.". okay, fine me! restored time machine... restore 2009. leopard.

tried lion install on thumb drive. "you can't install lion on computer.". maybe that's because don't have snow leopard. okay, put install dvd in. "you can't install snow leopard on computer.".

okay, think it. did apple didn't like. did wrong? and, more importantly, how can restore old system being held hostage on external backup drive?

Apple's Hiring of an Outsider is Out of Character


[​img]


earlier week, tim cook announced hiring of john browett replace ron johnson senior vice president of retail @ apple. after spending more 10 years @ apple, building world's successful retail chain scratch, johnson appointed ceo @ jc penney difficult task of turning around 1 of country's well-known department stores.

johnson announced departure apple in june of 2011 , august apple's recruiters in full-swing looking replacement. curiously, company entire executive team home-grown, reports emerged apple using executive search-firm egon zehnder assist finding perfect candidate. wall street journal reported steve jobs, @ time still on medical leave, intimately involved in decision hire outside firm "mainly because wants consider executives based abroad."

[​img]
the entire executive team @ apple, aside just-hired browett , bruce sewell, apple's general counsel, has been company more 10 years. aside general counsel position, apple's leadership team has remained consistent through second steve jobs era.

of 2 dozen current , former executives, bare handful hired outside company rather being promoted within, , 1 -- general counsel bruce sewell -- still firm. apple's famous crash-and-burn external hire of mark papermaster, long-time ibmer hired apple in 2008 senior vice president devices hardware engineering. after lengthy court battle ibm over non-compete clause had signed, put in charge of teams behind ipod , iphone, , presumably development of ipad well.

papermaster started work @ apple on april 24, 2009, 6 months after hired. left company after 15 months, after antennagate scandal.

in charge of division created iphone 4, , papermaster's departure seem of executive fell on sword on perceived issues apple's flagship product. however, adam lashinsky's book inside apple notes there more simple product miscue. papermaster's years @ ibm left him ill-prepared aggressive corporate culture @ top of apple.
[​img]
inside apple full of tales of unique culture @ apple, such lack of profit-and-loss reports individual divisions, exist @ large companies. apple's idiosyncratic culture , complete lack of external hires @ top -- plus short life-spans of have been tried -- mean john browett, ceo of european technology retailer dixons retail, in bumpy ride.

[​img]
from both apple's press release announcing move , email tim cook sent apple customer browett's hire, it's clear apple not hiring browett experience @ dixons. browett's hire has raised concerns apple fans because of poor shopping experiences @ different retailers in charge of. instead, cook hiring browett enthusiasm amazing customer service -- apple puts lot of stock in -- international expertise.

john browett tim cook's first major hire ceo, , lot of analysts , apple fans watching see how plays out. though steve jobs had extensive input on process both before resigned ceo , before passed away, tim cook indisputably in charge.

first apple store opened in 2001, more 10 years ago. apple retail's second 10 years called "decade of significance" within company. seems retail continue apple's noteworthy corporate initiative -- showcasing both brand , products millions of visitors week -- , john browett, complete outsider, apple's choice run it.

article link: apple's hiring of outsider out of character
 

hmm, wonder if there internal politics @ play, or if apple did want versed in setting large chains around world (even if chains rated worse ever).

apple knows how make awesome stores, , perhaps want knows how expand on world on larger scale.

thinkin about adding a 2nd hd? battery performance


i have i7 2.0 ghz quad core macbook pro. have 7200rpm hd right 750gb , out of space. thinking of adding second drive or ssd. best options around 200-250? how battery live affected? worried that? people live without there cd drive? burn lot of cds itunes need space? guess can internal. forgo 2nd drive if find 1tb 7200 rpm drive mbp... possible , if can find one. macsales had none.

in advance
 

adding drive impact battery life, it's difficult anticipate how much. have thought moving of user data external drive? simpler option. i'm sure have data stored on internal drive don't use frequently.
afaik, there no 2.5" 1tb 7200 drives out yet. why have 7200 rpm? 1tb 5400 drive fast if not faster 750gb 7200, due higher density of drive.

Identical backup can be very different..


hello,
backup content time capsule hard drive. perfect identical up, same files, copied. 10 hours needed no errors.

- time capsule shows 973 gb of space employed , 25,04 gb of space free.
- toshiba shows 998 gb of space employed , 1,98 gb of space free.

25 gb of difference!? much. how posible?

details :

- info screen-shot

- lion version 10.7.2

- disk toshiba 1tb model e05a100pbu3xs (formatted exfat)
http://www.bhphotovi...o_3_0_plus.html

- time capsule 802.11n (1st generation) 1tb

thank in advance helping.
grazie mille in anticipo per tutto il vostro contributo
 

if dragged backup via finder, might not have copied data. better use carboncopycloner cloning tc hdd.
btw, 1,98 gb free capacity not good, advised have @ least 10 percent of hdd's full capacity free (100 gb out of 1 tb).

Getting documents on ipad - why so difficult?


is there reason why icloud , dropbox's functions seem limited on ios devices?

dropbox, can view, not edit documents. so, have first open them appropriate iworks app, afterwards, save dropbox, have email myself, open in dropbox.

icloud, need first upload files icloud.com imac. there osx app opens folder me work from, dropbox?

same notability. can open pdfs dropbox (which take forever sync, , limited 2gb), not ibooks. think 64gb of storage in ipad, match made in heaven, no.

don't me wrong - apple products, of engineering decisions have me scratching head bewilderment. why deliberately hobble own products much?

or overlooking something? :confused:
 

sync documents want on ipad through itunes.
