    Sometimes less is more

    I use a very basic phone. My text and data is cut off. I take a lap top everywhere I go. I bought a tablet a while ago, but it could not hold all the stuff I use all the time so I gave it up.

    Looking for 10MM bolts for use in IBM racks

    I think your looking for “clip nuts”. How much distance do you need from the inside of the clip to the center of the nut? Dose it matter if the clip to nut is a little deeper than what is needed? http://www.thefastenerwarehouse.com/page/page/568857.htm

    secure hdd data destruction

    Reading DoD 5220.22-M might help. I looked at it but did not read it. If it was done in house the paperwork would be the big issue at the end. If you did crush I would take a attach a picture of each hard drive after showing the serial number after crushing. Other wise it could be hard to...

    Small business. Management of data and long term storage

    I have been looking at a 8 or 12 slot LOT-5. From what I have read (I could be wrong) it would not be the best solution for me with the current hardware I already have. I would also have to buy a server to feed it. If I went with a tape drive it would be much cheaper to build a desk top...

    Small business. Management of data and long term storage

    75% of the data I back up is for NAIS, COOL, FDA and the USDA regulations. It's not worth much to me. If I lost the data I would only recreate the data I need for IRS. The rest of it I would worry about when the USDA or FDA came to my door. I use some of the data for animal growth rates, but...

    Access Database Question

    It depends on how your data base is keyed, but that could work. When you name the tables for the months make sure you add the year to it so you don't run into an issue next year (January13). It would make it harder to run a report showing the data from multiple months depending on what you...

    Small business. Management of data and long term storage

    Going through my scanner setting my DPI was set at 1200. I changed it to 300 black and white. The quality is fine and takes up a fraction of the space. Thanks TCM that helped out a lot. I got a few more days of getting my end of the year taxes ready and than I have a 15x12x10” file box...

    Small business. Management of data and long term storage

    GeorgeHR Sorry I did not mean to step on your toes... Scout Most of the flat rate per computer ones have a limit, but I will look at that one. Yes tankman. I spend a lot of time dealing with paperwork and my wife dose paperwork most of her day at work also. I don't think it's an issue...

    Small business. Management of data and long term storage

    GeorgeHR I'm not worried about my data. I think my system is fine for what I need. I'm sure it could be much better. I'm not all that worried about the cost of long term storage, but it's nice to know the options. I now have a ATA to USB external case and will transfer all my data from them...

    Small business. Management of data and long term storage

    SemiLucid I think I'm close to doing it right. The NAS and SQL server get backed up to a NAS at my house (different building). Quarterly back up and put in a safe. All data is kept at 2 buildings until it's put in a safe, I know I can do better. drescherjm 140 tapes sound like fun...

    1812+ synology or Build my own PC?

    I own 2 of DS2413+ Synology NAS. The only thing I do not like about them is it takes 24 to 36 hours to do a self data check when you replace a drive or when you play with the raid groups. 1a. The same time as a computer you build with to days technology. 1b. As long as you keep the hard drives...
