Once a work unit is completed, the servers often don't take it in right away. Although BOINC is always connected to the servers (unless you specify otherwise), the line opens up only at certain times during the day.

WhiteFireDragon,thanks for the input about crunching and SSD's
you're welcome :up:
ssd's are much more valuable than HD's and since you have a WD 2tb black in there, i would put the data directory on the storage drive. HD/SSD performance has no affect on crunching, and some people killed their SSD's from crunching. i had this question myself about a month ago, here's that thread:
