We're rebuilding a drive array on www12 now... one of the drives took a hard crash, but the data is safe. Gary is rebuilding the boot - we're probably looking at a couple hours till completion.

Yeah, my site is down also but I am on 12. It's annoying but I can't remember the last time it was down. Well worth the $20 I pay a year for 200 MBs and 6 GBs transfer.

Any other way to check my email or do I have to wait this out?

Since the whole server is down, your gonna have to wait it out.

Could be a router in your area (or on route to dixie), as i am able to navigate there just fine.

Just server 12 is down, sounds like a hard drive failure or crash. Anyways, they are changing the server from plesk to ensim so that should some getting used to.

Kinda getting annoyed at all the downtime. Fortunately they are never down for more than one night, but it's happening a little too often... in addition, there are a lot of better deals out there, so I think I'll probably be moving off Dixiesys once the one year contract is up.
