Its been a pretty slow week for data recovery and hard drive watching. There have been a few cool reviews here and there, but no big news to speak of.

On a personal note, I am looking into installing a server rack in my basement. I think this is the dream of most IT guys, its the ultimate computer toy. The obvious problems are the expense and the room it takes up but I think with some smart buying these can be worked around. The ultimate goal would be to have a data server for my home network and some very secure storage. I am also looking for a serial attached SCSI card for the system, though the price of these is prohibitive.
