    When I ordered my computer, I was told I would receive a confirmation email with all of my parts listed so I could confirm it. How long does it typically take to receive that email? Its been a few hours since I ordered.

    Also, I had to order it in the raid 0 array since, for some reason, the starting at $1499 option was not available (But they still only charged me $1622!). Now when I get my computer, the first thing I will want to do is to remove raid 0 and use the second hard drive as either raid 1 or as another storage harddrive. How easy is this to do?

    Thanks!

    The email should arrive immediately. Send me a PM with your order number and I'll send it right away.

    About the RAID, it's really easy, here's a guide on How to create a RAID 1 configuration.


    Enjoy! :cool:

    It looks like even though I didn't receive a confirmation email the thing jumped right into production O_O. Not complaining. I did get a phone call just now asking me to confirm my date of birth though.

    Should I still PM you the number to confirm it if its already in production?
