While no one probably noticed, it’s probably fair to point out that there was some upgrades done over the weekend to the dootdoot blogs. For the average blogger, this will really mean nothing. A few bug fixes, some extra garbage you won’t use, etc.
The only major thing that was impacted is the “Recently Updated Blogs” widget. I am aware of this, and should have a fix up within the next day or so.
As for anything else, if something seems out of place or if you have any questions about the updates, feel free to contact me directly.

As birthday’s are very important to Sonja, I was able to take the afternoon off from work and spend the day with Sonja on her birthday. It was fun, we were able to go see a movie in the new theater on the east side of town (which was nice, but not any better than the west-side Century, and certainly not worth a 30 minute drive for … ever).
Late in the evening we celebrated with a small group of friends, mainly: Dan, Carrie and Mike. It was great that Carrie and Mike were able to make it from Minnesota. They arrived just in time to laugh at us while we played Cineplexity. 
I have to admit, that game was a lot of fun. A little beer, a little wine, and a bunch of movie nuts battling it out. I think the best part had to have been every time we were stuck trying to plead why our movie was best! Good times.
Anyway, it was a good day. Happy Birthday, Sonj-e!

Hitachi 7K2000 2TB
Filed Under Home Server
I can’t believe it has only been 8 months since I ordered my first 2TB hard drive, and about 4 months since I picked up a second 2TB hard drive when one of my 1TB drives failed… but now I am own three!
Last week NewEgg was having a sale, $30 off, and I had missed the previous sale, so when I saw that there was a similar offering I went ahead and picked up a new Hitachi 7K2000 2TB hard drive. It’s actually the same model as my previous Hitachi HD32000 2TB, but just the OEM version instead of the Retail.
Obviously when I got home, I quickly added the new drive to my WHS Storage Pool, and it looks like I really needed it! I was down to about ~5% free on my two primary 2TB drives.
Yes, I do have a couple extra 1TB drives laying around, but I am trying to phase them out with 2TB drives to maximize space without having to add another SATA controller card some day.
So, a bunch more free space, and no more WHS yelling at me about low disk space! Now I just need to balance the drives a bit.
