    Ghost still the way to go?

    I personally use Clonezilla, its Linux-based so you pretty much don't need to worry about driver issues. http://clonezilla.org/

    Linksys WRT320N and AR9285 compatible?

    Is the AP set to strictly wireless N, or is it backwards compatible with wireless b/g as well? Are you using WPA/WPA2 security on the AP?

    Getting the full 300Mbps on a Linksys N Gigabit Router

    IMHO, you are nearing full potential throughput. Wireless medium always has been a half-duplex operation.

    Switch Troubles.

    What I don't understand is how you concluded that the Netgear SW is the problem. Did you use another SW (that you may have forgotten to mention in your post?) Do you have redundant connection for the VM box (meaning the box has 2 connections to the same SW, or same VLAN)? One thing I would...

    Nas Build

    I don't understand this. Why are you purchasing thermal compound? Unless you are into overclocking, this is a waste of money. I have a Core i7-based Xeon and I'm only using the compound already put on the heatsink. You don't need thermal compound. Save the $7.

    Nas Build

    I'm using the Asus P6T6 WS Revolution motherboard for my NAS running FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE. That motherboard includes 2 x Realtek 8111C NIC's. Zero issues with them and work perfectly when connected to a gigabit switch. Realtek's USED to be notorious a while back, but since then they have...

    2 TB drives for a RAID array

    I have 5x Hitachi 1TB 32MB 7200RPM drives, along with 6x WD Green 1TB drives in a ZFS RAIDZ2 configuration on FreeBSD. So far, I'm running good. The Deathstar drives were sold under IBM, until Hitachi bought out that division (if I'm not mistaken). Not sure what changes they have made (if any)

    Marvel AOC-SASLP-MV8 - 8 Sata PCI-E 4x non-raid controller card

    Been lurking on this topic for sometime now and decided to give some of my insight. I have purchased the Areca 1300-4i controller for my NAS box in hopes to run it on OpenSolaris and using ZFS. Unfortunately I am having difficulty getting the card to work. OpenSolaris does not come with...
