Storage subforum?

ssg · 12-05-2008, 05:22 PM

Just curious what the inmates would be more fond of...

Instead maybe general computing?

ssg · 12-05-2008, 09:20 PM

You afraid it takes the mac-ness out of things?

I was thinking its a place for airports, nas, ext. hdd, SSD, flash, whatever discussions.

Nope just think there is computer issues that are interesting but generic and that is one. Currently it is hard to see where they go with my SDD so I usually put them in Mac

Hmm, it's weird I'm alone on this - I think Video, Recording, Storing, Building, Hacking, Coding/Writing, are all decent subtopics but thats why I don't run the forum

The future of computing, storage (S3 , @home, etc.) is going to blow up...then you'll wish we had it's own forum

I'm not against having it but I'm not certain our user base is big enough to support additional forums. As the community grows we can certainly add more. I think adding a more general forum such as the one sheep describes would be good for a melting pot forum with some thread prefixes to easily differentiate topics. I'll talk to management and see if I can get approval for the project.

I want a seagate forum, wd forum, maxtor forum...

Added a General Discussion forum: General Discussion - OSXUnderground.com

As the site continues to grow we can take it from there

Then you should go right a head and make a Sheep Forum right now, you will have allot less sorting later

Suggestions for thread prefixes are welcome. So far I've added Storage and PC. Anything else?
