I had the same issue with a rackmount PE 2900 in our APC racks at work. I just left the back mesh door off.

1433 ?

Yeah you can :p Mobo just has to support it

We've got some Nortel QIP software that's garbage. We're looking for something better at the moment as well. The only good things about our current setup is: Web based, and uses logins so you can only mess up your own deligated subnet, not every one's.

I don't think they're ^^ the right drive sleds. He needs the newer kind with a slightly different handle on the front.

440BX + Slot1 pIII + Intel Pro 100 = Happy :D

I've got a free quad Intel, 16Gb of RAM at work if need anything run on it.

ebay says less than $200. You'd probably get ~$150 on a forum for it.

^guys, this was posted in Sept 05' and the poster hasn't been back since May of 06'. Don't think he'll be answering your questions ;)

MS Voucher still works. :D

My server's use DFS to replicate to each other. The storage arrays are all RAID 1 or 5 and they're backed up to a DLT autoloader. I don't use anything 'lower level' than that like Ghost.

I love my 3Ware 7500's. I have 2 of the 7504 (4 ports), a 7508 and my friend is running the 7512. Haven't had a controller failure years of operation.

I've got a couple to AMI 493's in my dualies. Also known as Dell Perc3/ DC's. Dual U160, should be under $80

Ahh opps, someone must have bought up the 7500's he used to have. They are terribly old cards, and do not support drives above 137Gb

A guy on Ars currently has a bunch of 3Ware cards up FS, some 8 & 12 port'ers under $200.
