Garr...

I got some Cat 6 cable from CompUSA. Then I found I could get more cable for the same price at Radio Shack (though I couldn't have gotten the 3' cable length at Radio Shack—just 7' for the price I paid for 3').

Anyway, I got back home and started fiddling with it. Ripped it apart and replaced some of the wires going between the drives in my disk enclosure. Unfortunately, it's not helping the 4-drive setup I want to have.

After mucking with this a while, I stopped out on the front porch of my apartment building to hang out with Kari and Becky a bit. No sense getting too stressed out with my computer stuff, as the next step will be to replace the more complicated cable that comes into the case. Fun.

On a positive note, all three lanes of University Ave. were open all the way through Dinkytown for once! We'll see how long that lasts.
