Big thanks to both of you!
I looked at an identical hard drive to the old one - there is a place on the back for a jumper - but it's to switch it form 1.5 to 3.0 or vice versa - I'm thinking that's a speed thing I think it was Ghz behind those numbers.
She's been up and running and folding since Sunday night - other than a couple hours while she did Windows updates last night, and I think in my messing around that I lost one work unit that was almost finished :-(
While I'm happy with her, and she's running a lot quieter and seems to be faster here on the internet - I haven't seen any boost on the Folding.
Originally, the GPU was getting a ton of units worth 14,000 points and was knocking those out in between 8-9 hours - now it's getting a lot smaller work units and the point production has reduced a little. When I first installed the GPU - it was knocking out close to 40,000 points a day by itself - right now, the combined production is showing about 33,000 - so I'm a tad bit disappointed in that - I sort of expected to see an increase, not a decrease - but I also know that depends somewhat on the current work units, etc.
I'll give her time - I know I've interfered a lot with installs, updates, etc.
I'm moving forward anyway!
Sun :-)
