Conversation with ADATA Customer Service.

I decided to call ADATA Customer Service regarding the RMA process for the S599 SSD. Since I’m located within driving range to their Hacienda Heights office, I decided to get the deliver the defective product in person. I called the Customer Service and was informed that I could go to their office and get the replacement.

I’d be visiting ADATA USA office this Wednesday.

RMA for an SSD.

One of the ADATA S599 SSD‘s I’ve been using failed earlier this week. First there were performance degradations, then it had trouble accessing files. Soon after the computer would not boot with the SSD attached through the SATA Bus or External FireWire case.

I had contacted ADATA for RMA and will be sending it out this Monday morning.

Hackintosh Core i7

My colleague and I successfully built a Hackintosh Core i7. It took quite a while to get everything right. It also costs more than we originally expected. For now we are sticking with Snow Leopard.

Bad Capacitors on Motherboard.

I was working on a computer earlier today and found some bad capacitors on the motherboard. Bulging capacitors indicate problems. This motherboard is a goner.

Will add the picture later.
