Computer case and RAID controllers

Reading all the posts on this forum has really got me thinking about a lot of different changes to my machine now! So much information! One change I am definitely going to be doing is changing cases. My current case is a padded with sound deadening foam, and it is super quiet which is awesome, but I am having trouble with heat, especially over long renders etc. I saw Harm suggest a HAF 932 to someone, and I looked it up and I really like the case, but I am also now looking at an Areca RIAD controller to speed up my storage raid, which I have known to be pretty slow on the onboard controller since I installed it.
My question comes in the form of HDD storage slots. I've seen it suggested to get as many connector RAID controller as you can swing, but I'm wondering how you guys with the huge raids, 12, 16 or 24 drive setups are managing all those drives! The HAF 932 looks like it has 5 or 6 3.5" bays and 5 or 6 5.25" bays.. so at max there is space for 12 drives if converting every 5.25" bay. Are there external racks or something that you can wire in or how are you guys handling this?
That was way longer than it needed to be, but thanks for looking!

I used the CM HAF 932 x case and I love it. The 4 supplied fans spin at 700 - 1000 rpm, move lots of air and are very quiet, but I know quiet is in the ear of the beholder.
BTW...
5 drives through the side and 2 through the front with 4 available slots for burners, fan control panels, etc.

Switched computer cases and now I hang at the MSI splash screen.

Hey guys. I've never had any problems with building my PC until yesterday on the simplest of tasks.
I decided to buy a new case and switch everything over but when I did it decided to hang on the MSI motherboard splash screen.
Specs:
* MEM 4Gx2|G.SKILL F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL + one more stick.
* Processor = AMD Phenom II X6 1055T Thuban 2.8GHz Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop Processor HDT55TFBGRBOX
* Graphics Card = HD 7950
* Motherboard = MB MSI| 880GM-E41 880G R
* PSU = CORSAIR CX series CX500 500W ATX12V v2.3 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply
* OS = Windows 7 64Bit
* No overclocking.
So far I've done the following.
* Removed battery/Jumped the bios.
* Checked and rechecked each RAM stick.
* Removed all connections.
* Removed graphics card etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Christmas has kind of killed my budget for a new build.
Thanks!
These are as far as I can get before everything stops working.

Really strange.
Have you made sure that there was will be/was no contact between mobo and case (apart from spots where the contact should be made) ? This could've break the motherboard.
Check ALL of the power supply cable connections between it and mobo.
Now something weird which doesn't seen to make any sense... Try to put your motherboard back to the old case.
That's all my suggestions, apart from that, if you're still able, then get it on a warranty and RMA it.
Good luck.

HP Pavilion 500 PC computer case ports not working

I left my computer on for about two weeks. Most likely it overheated the computer case. Yesterday, I decided to shut down the computer for it to update.Next morning I turn on the computer and my mouse and keyboard didn't work. I can turn on the power for my computer, but my computer doesn't respond to mouse and keyboard. The monitor also can't find the computer saying how there's no signal. I tried restarting the computer multiple times through the power button, unplugging the usb cords and the cord for the monitor multiple times and tested the mouse and keyboard on a different computer. When I connect my mouse to the computer it does not show the red optic light on the bottom, but it does and works on another computer. The keyboard also works on another computer. I tried taking out all of the cords off the computer case and taking of the power cord of it and waiting, putting the cords back in and trying again, but i did not work. I tried to go in BIOS, but I am not sure whether or not I am pressing the right key combination or because of the fact the computer is not responding to me pressing the keys on the computer. Also, before I shut down the computer I noticed the computer was reacting slow to me clicking and closing windows sometimes and I do not know if that would be related to the problem. I can't access my computer because it will not react to the monitor, mouse and keyboard. It worked fine when I kept it on and previously before when I shut it down.
Thanks
This question was solved.

The little beep that should be occuring lets you know that your computer has completed the Power On Self Test or POST. This test is a basic test of all hardware. Usually if a component like the RAM has gone bad there will be a series of beeps that communicates what has gone bad. In my experience there are only two reasons why there would be no post code. The first would be that the power supply has gone bad, no power means no POST. However, your fan comes on, indicating that there is still power. Which means the second and far more severe case is more likely here. Your motherboard is most likely toast. I know that is the worst possible prognosis, but I think that it is accurate here. Sorry.
I work on behalf of HP, but my opinions are my own.
Please click the "Thumbs up + button" if I have helped you and click "Accept as Solution" if your problem is solved. If both apply......do both.

Hello
Thank you for your answer which is interesting because it is a disk of 2 TB... If I create a partition do you think it can solve my problem? I prefer this old version of Photoshop, very practical to use...

Dual HBA and dual RAID controllers

PCI Dual Ultra3 SCSI Host adapter, single host (V210), StorEdge 3320 with dual RAID controllers.
Looking for best speed and reliability - can't find any documentation explaining how best to utilize dual controllers in SE-3320 RAID array.
Only reference is in "Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Best Practices" document, that says:
Use dual-controller arrays to avoid a single point of failure. A dual-controller SCSI array features a default active-to-active controller configuration. This configuration improved application availability because, in the unlikely event of a controller failure, the array automatically fails over to a second controller, resulting in no interruption of data flow.
Does the HBA provide the same active-active configuration?
Can BOTH ports of HBA be connected to the dual controllers (one-to-one) to provide redundency/failover at both ends?
Does this provide better throughput?

problem starting to look like harware or firmware...
installed patch 124750-02 T2000 firmware update
installed patch 123305-02 Qlogic firmware update
after updates: port 1 works fine, port 2 still flashing lights
as long as fiber port lights flash - there is no communication occuring
so, there are no LD's, LUN's to report even at OBP.
fiber cable is proven good, controller port is proven good...
guessing it's a bad HBA GBIC port, can't explain it any other way.

Computer Blue Screen when VXI chassis is shutdown Using NI VXI-8360T MXI-VXI and PCIe8362 controllers

Problem Description :
Using NI VXI-8360T MXI-VXI and PCIe8362 controllers.
The software I have is Measurement and Automation Explorer version 5.5.0f0 Problem:
We have had both controllers set up and working together to include running other VXI instruments using the MXI bus. The problem we are having is that when the VXI chassis is shutdown, it causes the computer (that has the PCIe8362 card in it and connected to the VXI card bus) to experience a blue screen of death.
With our older 777178-01 VXI-MXI-2 configuration, our computer does not experience the blue screen when shutting down the VXI chassis while the computer is still on. Do you have information or past issues with the computer experiencing a blue screen due to VXI chassis shutdown?
NI Software : Other version
NI Hardware : VXI/VME/MXI device VXI-8360T
Driver Version :
OS :
Windows 7

Are you using NI-VXI 3.8.1 (or later) and supported hardware for VPO (variable power on) support?
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/6B1F05BB5C0E321186257950007424B2
I think you need to "warn" the hardware/driver you're going to turn the chassis off, either via MAX or a programatic call. Sorry I can't give any more specific help, but I've only heard about this and haven't ever done it myself.

Advice on RAID Sets, Volume Sets, and RAID Levels of the Volume Sets using an Areca Controller

I have read through a lot of information on disk usage, storage rules for an editing rig, users inquiries/member responses in this forum and I thank each and every one of you – especially Harm.
In building my new workstation, I purchased five (5) WD 1T, 7k, 64M SATAIII hard drives and an Areca RAID card, ARC-1880ix-16-4G, which I plan to use primarily as my media/data disk array. The workstation will use a 128GB SATAIII SSD as the OS/program drive and I will transfer two (2) WD Raptor/10k SATA 70GB drives from my current system for pagefile/scratch/render use. I tentatively plan on using a mobo SATAIII port for the SSD and mobo SATA ports with a software RAID (level 0) for the 10k Raptors.
In reading the Areca Instruction manual, I am now considering exactly how I should configure the 5 physical 1TB drives in terms of RAID Level(s), Volume Sets, and RAID Sets. I must admit that I like the opportunity of allowing for a Dedicated Hot Spare as I am generally distrustful of the MTBF data that drive vendors tout and have the bad experience in the past of losing data from a mal-configured RAID array and a single drive hardware failure (admittedly, my fault!).
In line with the logic that one doesn’t want to perform disk reading while trying to write at the same time (or vice-versa), I am thinking the approach above should work OK in using the mobo disk interface and both software and external hardware RAID controllers without having to create separate RAID level configurations within a Volume Set or further dividing up the physical drives into separate RAID sets. I know in forum messages that Harm noted that he had 17 drives and I could envision a benefit to having separate RAID sets in that situation, but I am not at that point yet.
To some degree I think it might be best to just create one RAID Level on one Volume Set on one RAID Set, but want to solicit thoughts from veteran controller users on their workflows/thoughts in these regards.
Anyone care to share thoughts/perspectives? Thanks
Bill

Thanks for the speedy feedback Harm - I appreciate it.
I was thinking RAID level 3 as well.
Of course, it's always something! I purchased the Caviar Blacks by mistake - which are non-TLER. I will work with EggHead to return the ones I purchased and replace them with RE4 versions as I'm not thrilled about the possibility of the controller declaring the volume/disks degraded unnecessarily and although I have the DOS utility WDTLER where one is supposed to be able to enable/disable TLER on WD drives - I suspect WD is way beyond that now anyway with current builds.
I agree with you about just testing the performance of the options for the raptors - on the mobo and then on the controller. When I benchmark them I'll post the results in case others are curious.
Thanks again....off to EggHead!

How to install the driver of the 'SCSI and RAID Host Controller'

Hi,
I have two Windows XP(32Bit) installations:
•Windows XP SP2(32Bit) which is old and it seems as if it is infected by some viruses.
•I have installed another fresh clean Windows XP(32Bit) SP3. However, I have found that there is no category named with ''SCSI and RAID Host Controller'. However, when checking out the old version of Windows XP, I found 'SCSI and RAID Host Controller'
is there. (Screen shot below)
The new Windows XP(32Bit) SP3, there is no 'SCSI and RAID Host Controller'
My motherboard is:
My Desktop Computer(Intel P 4, 512MB of RAM, and Graphics Card with 256MB of RAM.
]I am seeing that most computer doesn't has the scsi / raid controller . in the old Windows XP on my computer that SCSI and RAID controller exists, and it it has not a yellow mark on it.
When I installed a new windwos XP 32Bit SP3, no SCSI/RAID in divice manager .
My computer sound on new Windows XP doesn't work , however, on old Windows XP SP2 works well. I have a buitl-in sound card. SCSI and RAID controller category in the device manager on the old Windows xp SP2 is realted to sound card,I don't think.
Thus, What drivers would let the 'SCSI and RAID Host Controller' added in the device manager?
A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.

If you open the case and shine a light on the motherboard you can usually see both the manufacturers name and the model printed on the pcb somewhere. You should also normally see this information on the first POST screen when you turn on the PC.
Otherwise Google "775i65G" like I did.
Here are the driver downloads (assuming it is an Asrock 775i65G R2.0 and not an R3.0)
http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/775i65G%20R2.0/?cat=Download&os=XP
You should install the inf driver first. Hopefully after you do that you will see your desired listing in Device Manager.
With regard to the AMR driver and the HDMR driver, you can find some information about these here :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio/modem_riser
Unless you actually have something plugged into these risers, it is probably not necessary to install the drivers.
However, the drivers for the integrated C-Media audio chip and the Realtek Lan chip may prove useful.
It looks like the motherboard has integrated video but if you are using a graphics card it will not normally be necessary to install the VGA driver.
You can download both the manual and the installation guide here
http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/775i65G/?cat=Manual
And if "SCSI and RAID Host Controller" is still not shown in Device Manager, don't worry - because these functions are not supported by your motherboard (again assuming it is an Asrock 775i65G)
Thanks a lot,
First of all, when saying that I have multi-operationgs systems, I mean there are two operating systems installed on my PC(SP2, SP3) both are 32Bit. The first Windows SP2(NOT installed by me) has all multimedia audio card installed
well, and has SCSI and RAID Host Controller shown the device manager. However, only the VGA is not installed on Windows SP2. However, the second one Windows SP3(Installed by me) has VGA not installed, Multimedia audio NOT installed, and there is no SCSI and
RAID Host Controller in device manager.
First: Why did the CPUz, specy didn't detect motherboard name, and only detect the model. IF I need to open the case and shine a light on the motherboard you can usually see both the manufacturers name and the model printed on
the pcb somewhere, then what benfit would be there from hardware detection software?
Second: Yes, my motherboard has integrated video, and integrated audio card
However, this doesn't mean that I don't need to install them since the Vidoe controller is not properly installed (it is a default VGA ) Also, Multimedia audio controller is not functiong at all.
Finally: if And if "SCSI and RAID Host Controller" is still not shown in Device Manager in Windows XP SP3, because these functions are not supported by my motherboard, then why is 'SCSI and RAID Host
Controller' installed/shown in the device manger in Windows XP SP2 on the same PC???
A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.

1) Boot Hyper-V from cheap SATA or even USB stick (see link below). No point in wasting SSD for that. Completely agree with Eric. See:
Run Hyper-V from USB Flash
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj733589.aspx
2) Don't use RAID controllers in RAID mode rather (as you already got them) stick with HBA mode passing disks AS IS, add some more SSDs and configure Storage Spaces in RAID10 equivalent mode and use SSDs as a flash cache. See:
Storage Spaces Overview
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831739.aspx
Because having single pool touching all spindles would provide you better IOPS compared to creating "islands of storage" that are waste or performance and hell of management.
3) Come up with IOPS requirements for your workload (no idea from above) keeping in mind RAID10 provides ALL IOPS for reads and half IOPS for writes (because of mirroring). So as single SATA can do maybe 120-150 IOPS and single SAS can do up to 200 (you
don't provide any model names so we have to guess) you may calculate how many IOPS your config would give away in a best and worst case scenario (write back cache from above will help but you always need to come from a WORST case). See calculator link below.
IOPS Calculator

Hope this helped a bit :)

Drive status shown Unconfigured bad and Raid 10 volume degraded

Cisco UCS C200 M2 server one of the drive is showing Unconfigure bad and raid 10 volume degraded with long beeps and solid umber light. First I thought the hard drive is bad and replaced it with new one of same type. Did wait for rebulid for 5 days. Beep did not stop. Againg I looked in to the server and found the above status. Please refer the screen shot for more clarification of the error.
I was gong through Cisco documentation wherein I came across same type of error with bug and I am not sure its the same and is it is I did not understand the workaround I mean what to upgrade is it BIOS or firmware etc.

Mohammed,
What the bug is trying to say is that in a newer version (1.4(3c)) the behavior changes and the Physical Drive which was removed and inserted back shows the status "Missing" instead of showing up as "Unknown" under the Virtual Drive tab in CIMC as this is Unconfigured Bad drive and not part of the RAID group.
Now, the best you can do here is to monitor your system using CIMC, which is the tool we have to monitor/manage the C-Series server instead of vSphere itself.
To get rid of this behavior, you will have to enter into the WebBIOS (Control+H or C or M < Depends on what RAID controller you have), make the disk unconfig good, then make it only "online" so the disk can be part of the array again.
You may find out what is the sequence of keys you have to hit to ge to the controller during the server boot:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c/hw/C200M1/install/c200M1/RAID.html
"Watch for the prompt for your controller during verbose boot:
•The prompt for LSI controller card utility is Ctrl-H.
•The prompt for the mezzanine-style controller cards is Ctrl-C.
•The prompt for the onboard Intel ICH10R controller utility is Ctrl-M. "
Note-1: It is important you first check that the disk has no errors before you try to re-add it to the array, cause if that is the case the disk will probably fail and data loss can occur.
Note-2:Once in WebBIOS, you can also disable the beeping alarm and here is the document that shows how that can be done from WebBIOS (note that this will be the interface if you had to press Ctrl+H, otherwise it will look different) or also, you can use MegaCLI to disable the alarm, and the below link also includes the necessary command:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/servers-unified-computing/ucs-c-series-rack-servers/116106-problem-ucs-lsi-beeps.html
In case you don't know how to set up CIMC in your C200, here is the link with images and the example, look for the C200 to get the correct steps/cabling:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/servers-unified-computing/ucs-c200-m1-high-density-rack-mount-server/111455-setup-cimc-c-series.html

Computer crashed and is now stuck on a grey screen with the apple logo and pinwheel. What do I do?

Computer crashed and is stuck on a grey screen with the apple logo and pinwheel turning
Please help

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
     a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
Step 3
Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 4
If you use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, or mouse, replace or recharge the batteries. The battery level shown in the Bluetooth menu item may not be accurate.
Step 5
If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
Step 6
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
Step 7
If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 10. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 8
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
Step 9
If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.
Step 10
Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 11
Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 12
This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
Step 13
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

Hi Craig
Unfortunately, in your case, there isn't really a way to separate them as far as I can think.
You could try restoring from a backup, and choosing an older backup perhaps
Cheers

The Active Directory is one forest with one domain. The Domain Controllers are Windows Server 2012. The Site1 and Site 2 are connected by a WAN link. The accepted domain is domain.com. The smtp address is @domain.com
How to make that users of Citi1 always connect throught the HLB01 to their mailboxes; and the users of Citi2 always connect throught the HLB02 to their mailboxes if the autodiscover.domain.com is the same for all users?
I have not found documentation about
this architecture. Please help me.
Thank you very much.

Hi javier,
In this issue, I guess you can try to use site affinity for the Autodiscover service for intranet-based traffic.
To use site affinity, you specify which Active Directory sites are preferred for clients to connect to a particular Autodiscover service
instance.
You configure site affinity by using the
Set-ClientAccessServer cmdlet. This cmdlet lets you specify the preferred Active Directory sites for connecting to the Autodiscover service on a specific Client Access server. After you configure site affinity for the Autodiscover service,
the client will connect to the Autodiscover service as you specified.
According to your needs, you might want to allow users in the site1 to use site1, users in site2 to use site2 to access the Autodiscover Service.
You can configure site scope for Client Access servers in the Site1 by following command.
Set-ClientAccessServer -Identity "site1-cas" -AutodiscoverServiceInternalURI "https://internal.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml" –AutodiscoverServiceSiteScope “site1”
The Command for Site2.
Set-ClientAccessServer -Identity "site2-cas" -AutodiscoverServiceInternalURI "https://internal.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml" –AutodiscoverServiceSiteScope “site2”
Hope it helps
Best regards

The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end.

The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I've tried it multiple times and continue to get the same message: "NOT FOUND The requested item could not be found". I also tried through the Market application on the phone but ended-up with the same result.
I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end. If this is the case then no one can download the app. I considered that perhaps because it's still in Beta that it was removed due to some other type of software issue. I would really like to use Firefox on my new Droid (2.0); when with this be available?

Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
(Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)
