Yes, it's possible to upgrade all version of Windows 7, sometimes without a reinstall.

The recommended disk space is 16GB, but the actual footprint is less - between 10 to 14GB.

2009-11-07T01:13:03.685+04:00

Is it still possible to upgrade from starter to professional, assuming I have a valid key?
(Ive seen some negative stuff about upgrading from starter on wikipedia, that's why I want a clarification)
Plus, do you know if ALL 32 bit version of windows 7 takes 16GB of hard disk space?
(Thats really sick if the starter edition uses 16GB!!)

@Anonymous
Yes, the Pro will get installed, but won't get activated because the key you have is only for Home Basic (if you bought the Home Basic version).

Yes, it's impossible to get 2Mbps directly from RS.
But if you have access to a local host server, you could download the files from RS to that server.
& download from that server at 2Mbps on your My.T 512K connection. :)

Hello
Make as if I have a windows 7 home basic installation disc, and when you try to install it asks you if you want to install between starter, home basic, home premium, professional, enterprise and ultimate.
Still, make as if I have the home basic dvd and poof, I choose the professional one during the installation wizard...
Do you have an idea what will happen?
Will the professional get installed?!

p.s; I'm not the anonymous who posted that thing about downloading from rs at two megabytes, but lets be honest and realist carrot, its theoretically and practically, therefore tangibly impossible to download at that speed from rs with a 512Kbps connection...

Your thoughts about my windows 7 question and rs at two megabytes please.

2009-11-01T20:06:05.267+04:00

Did you know that hitachi desktar disks were known as deathstars because of its high failure rates. And it was also ranked 18th in PC World's "Worst Tech Products of All Time" feature.
And I'm still wondering why you bought a "deathstar" hard disk... ??

Remember you told me to defrag my drive before installing a linux distro, well Ive 3 different software to analyze the fragmentation level and it showed different results;
smartdefrag shows 26% of fragments, Defraggler 31% and PerfectDisk 2.1%.
I don't know whom to trust... Any idea please?

2009-10-26T22:40:30.018+04:00

@Anonymous
It's a little more complicated than that, bcoz wrapping anything around the hard drive will cause it to heat up.
Check out the ideas here: link

What I'd recommend is placing packing foam in-between the hard disk & the bay on which it is screwed. It won't be noiseless, but it'll reduce the vibrations. :)

2009-10-26T22:18:03.140+04:00

By using a foam or rubber?
You mean by wrapping it with a foam or rubber and then place in inside its correct position in the cpu case?
And even wrapping it up with a foam or rubber and insert it in an external casing?
Am I right or writing nonsense?

2009-10-24T00:29:06.024+04:00

So those guys who bought those hard disk were certainly unlucky or those online shops (surely) shipped those hard disk carelessly.

How about your hitachi disk, does its level of noise is high, or quiet? (Reviews about Hitachi drives said they are a bit noisy).
But having a answer from someone who really bought and used a Hitachi drive would be more appropriate.
