One OCZ Vertex, and one G.Skill Falcon II.
Both used the Indilinx Barefoot controller, so I suspect that that's probably
the cause.

I've just read the CodingHorror blog article, and all its Comments - and
there is some discussion about the point I was making about SMART
monitoring.
I'm also intrigued with the 3 year warranties and MTBF equal to that of
conventional hard drives, for some SSDs.
Of course nothing in (most)
All this talk of SSDs and HDDs failing has got me a little scared to
lose my data. I just have one main folder with everything in there on
my laptop and copy this thing to my USB drive as backup - I manually
do this i'm starting to realise this is not enough.
How do you all do your backups?
Windows Home Server for me.
There's also a thread on cloud backup that you might want to read :)

All drives are flaky time bombs, it's amazing they work at all.
I lost two SATA drives in a PC due to a failure of the video card zapping
the controller on the HD. It is conceivably possible to restore the drive by
seeking out someone who was smart enough to keep a load of old drives you
might
I've been using fairly conventional backups, but recently bought a small HP
Proliant to run Windows Home Server 2011. I had a WHS1 system last year, but
decided to revert to Windows 7 backups to big cheap SATA drives instead,
while awaiting the release of WHS v2.
Now, I'm waiting for the release
Subversion. That way I get a change history as well.
Danger Will Robinson! A version control system is not a backup.

You can back up to a central location in your house, and then back that central
point up to the cloud. That can help protect you against a disaster (e.g.
lightning strike, fire etc.) affecting your house.

You're using WHS (v1 or 2011 - ?), so what Cloud service do you use that
does allow you to backup a server? Most cheaper ones preclude server backups
(eg, iiNet's Vault is specific about that).

I backed up to the cloud today. I grabbed a balloon and tied a memory stick
to it and then released it... Question if I may..how do i get it back down?

Folks, in the tiny sample below I want to parse some text and set the

I asked my cat after I posted the question and he had the answer ... I have
to use a TypeConverter. I'll post the answer when I have it worked out -
Greg
The Convert class will help:
value = (T)Convert.ChangeType(rawValue, typeof(T))

Fascinating. I've not noticed that method before. The MSDN doco says that
ChangeType expects an IConvertible, which int, double, long, etc do.
It turns out I couldn't use a TypeConverter because I'm in Silverlight.
Surely there's very few types that a) you're using, that b) offer that Parse
method. Could you save the reflection call and simply do something like
if (typeof(T) is decimal) { decimal.Parse(...); }
elseif (typeof(T) is int) { int.Parse(...); }
?

There's not a lot of point being generic if end up doing switch if/switch
statements. ie Why don't you just have a specialized class for each numeric
type? Ie IntFooClass, DoubleFooClass, etc.
