    Will too many Hard drives be a fire hazard shorten lifespan?

    I have 30 drives coupled with an old 1366 socket board and 2 corsair hx1000 (well it would do with just 1 tbh but using it for backup) for a while and it has been working well, didn't even need that much but had the psu from an "old" gaming pc and that's how it all started. That's with proper...

    The perfect ZFS home server motherboard.

    Not sure if it's so perfect, well i guess it is if you want to use windows server, otherwise most of those ports i'm assuming won't work as passthrough in esxi or on solaris for example, then again maybe all will fully compatible under ubuntu or something. Depends on the use one wants to give...

    OpenZFS NAS (BSD, Illumos, Linux, OSX, Solaris, Windows + Storage Spaces) with napp-it web-gui

    Here's the error on OmniOS bloody on Esxi 5.1 update 1 after installing napp-it > system update > install vmware tools with default options and reboot http://i.imgur.com/eUyadVw.png Is it just broken for vmware tools right now or? Stable works fine.

    By the way, OmniOs unstable spells trouble for me in Esxi, if you update the system before installing napp-it i get ramdisk initialization error, if i install napp-it then update the system (because no ldd by default which is required for vmware tools) and install vmware tools then same ramdisk...

    OpenZFS NAS (BSD, Illumos, Linux, OSX, Solaris, Windows + Storage Spaces) with napp-it web-gui

    No evil has come out of it so i'll let it stay just found it odd as it doesn't display on Openindiana, still does on bloody, and doesn't happen if i just install the os without virtualization, anyway i'm sure it's no big deal but if i notice poor performance down the line i'll switch to...

    Also on ESXI and the all in one or just a manual omnios install on esxi at boot time it says 2 times failed to update microcode 0xsomething to 0x11, is it normal? Doesn't happen on openindiana. Cheers

    vSphere 5.5 is out

    Are there actual improvements from upgrading hardware past 8? Then again no license so it would be a 60 days test and would still need a windows machine to host the web server etc.

    Need recommendations

    Hi, i have a 30 drive server but thinking of upgrading, anyway my current motherboard is a rampage iii extreme i had left over and came in handy due to the pci express slots etc, anyhow a lot of the boards i see amd and intel don't have 4 pci-e x8 so would it be best to get a sas expander and...

    OpenZFS NAS (BSD, Illumos, Linux, OSX, Solaris, Windows + Storage Spaces) with napp-it web-gui

    Ah i was trying from windows with bootcamp, but at least it seems to hit stable at 70MB/s now from windows bootcamp to esxi, so i'll upload everything i need and then it won't matter anymore :), since it will be all inside the esxi box. But yes i have noticed before that OSX smb performance is...

    vSphere 5.5 is out

    For me i lost the ability to use ICH10 as passthrough, did work in 5.0 and 5.1, wonder if it would be possible to switch the drives with the 5.1 ones or something like that.

    Best bang for the buck new server or server upgrades?

    I installed omnios fine manually on 5.1 update 1 but wondering if your all in one would work for 5.1 too _Gea? 5.5 doesn't support ich10 passthrough :(, did in 5.0 and 5.1 and well guess i'll have to order another hba down the line.

    OpenZFS NAS (BSD, Illumos, Linux, OSX, Solaris, Windows + Storage Spaces) with napp-it web-gui

    Hey just an update on my performance, i installed windows 2012 server on my esxi box and uploaded a file to there (still the slow speeds) but then transfered a file from the windows server to the omnios through smb (both on the esxi) and my transfer speeds were 130mb/s dropping sometimes to 127...

    OpenZFS NAS (BSD, Illumos, Linux, OSX, Solaris, Windows + Storage Spaces) with napp-it web-gui

    Hey, i meant it will start at 100ish MB/s and then if it's a big big file or multiple folders with big files by the end it will be at around 65 to 70MB/S, i tried with different hard drives, may be a windows or my macbook pro network card. Guess first thing i should do is try this from macos...
