@ Campy: You did mean no less than 1TB drive correct?? I disagree, it depends on what you are using the drive for.
From the research I've done there is really no difference between hds at all much unless your change RPMs. They just read/write better but latency is all the same from what I...
While I've been setting up I have had a VMWare 'guru' locally helping me and he has since sort of bailed on me, so I'm trying to pick up the pieces. What I was told by him was that if I want to do websites hosted for myself that they take a lot more RAM and better off on their own box to max out...
OK OK My newbieness is shining bright. :D I obviously don't know the difference between a 'SAN' and a 'file server', thought they were interchangeable from some reason. So yes essentially what you described is what I'm looking to do. Is there a reason you would use Server 2008 R2 over...
Sorry took me so long to get back, out on errands. OK I'm looking for scalability of course. Growth is always a factor.
I do several things. I am using VMWare on some 8GB SSD CFast or CF cards then using a storage server (SAN) to store all the datastores. Looking into building SAN right now...
I'm thinking you will find the same timeline for everyone else. Intel sort of leads the pack from what I can tell. OCZ also tends to be on the leading edge as well. I'm assuming 2nd half of next year we'll see the prices drop. But I'm not waiting until then, why should you wait to remove your...
Maybe you missed my point. I'm only referring to a portion of my total system set up. I'm concentrating on one point at a time. So to clear up that statement... 'Failure of a disk or two' not total catastrophe... That is what the instantaneous copy is for. I was more thinking of PCI-e's point...
Hey Guys~
Thanks for all the feedback. So from a standpoint of benefit of removing some bottlenecks to improve efficiencies, I'm still looking at the comparison from both price and failure points.
Since it is my goal to not loose data upon failure, I need to use RAID and from this it...
I've been doing a lot of reading on the different SSD technologies and trying to decide on which way is best to go for my new system build.
I am wondering which people here are using in a production server for their main data access. As most we work with many databases from quickbooks to CAD...
