    Looking for a Colo in LA with GREAT support

    Hi there, I wasn't too sure where to post this, so please move it if you need to. I work for a small IT company that also runs a hosted CRM application. Right now the site is hosted by Rackspace and consists of 2 servers and a firewall. Our price is upwards of $1500/mo for this set...

    Shared Data Store Options for ESXi

    You will need gigabit connections for iscsi and you can use the NF600 storage server if you wish. However, I would go with an MD3000i (single controller for cost savings) as you can get it with a few disks for around $5k (make sure to CALL and order for better pricing). The MD1000 you have can...

    PC Will not post, no beeps, I think its the CPU or Mobo

    Yeah I do, I tried that as well and it's still a no go. Plus I also forced powered on my current PSU and it turned on.

    Ok, well I just too it out of the case and assembled it on the table and it's still a no go. It'll power on for around 5-10 seconds, then it'll restart and stay "on" without anything really happening.

    I'll try taking it out of the case tonight and see what goes from there. At this point I'm just trying to get any sort of beep or error codes and I am getting nothing. It will start up for a few seconds, then restart. That's all.

    Where to Buy 920 D0 Stepping?

    I've purchased from Tank guys before, haven't had any issues.

    PC Will not post, no beeps, I think its the CPU or Mobo

    Yeah, that's what I'm going to do. I placed an order at newegg for an i7-920, an asus p6t-deluxe-v2 and 12GB of OCZ Ram. I'm going to send the CPU back to Intel to see if they'll replace it, as I think that's what the issue is. So, looks like I may be selling a new Q9450 soon along with 8GB...

    PC Will not post, no beeps, I think its the CPU or Mobo

    Yeah, I made sure it was seated and everything. The fans on the video card spin up and the lights power on when I turn on the power, so its not that. Well, guess it gives me an excuse to get an X58 system now!

    So..... I swapped out heastinks earlier today, and this required removing the motherboard and then putting everything back together. When it comes time to power on the system with the new heatsink, it starts up for 5 seconds, turns off, then starts up again. I can hear the hard drives...

    Small Business Server - Build or buy?

    For 25 users. Quad Core 8GB RAM I'd go with either SAS or SCSI Drives. Now, if you want 1TB of storage you are going to be paying a pretty penny if you use SAS or SCSI drives. Probably around 1800-2200 for 6 300GB drives. If you get a newer Dell (like a T610) with a SAS backplane you can...

    Small Business Server - Build or buy?

    The 2900/2950 III is a very nice unit. If you don't want to spend a bunch of money on one, you can get a refurbed unit from either Dell or Stallard Technologies - www.stikc.com I buy tons of odds and ends from Stallard and the only "issue" I've had is them sending me two "left" hand rails...

    Corporate Virus Scanners - Kaspersky vs. Symantec Endpoint

    We resell ESET as well, and its pretty slick and also allows remote administration of the clients. Sure, some spyware has gotten through, but not nearly as much as it does with other programs.

    Small Business Server - Build or buy?

    I'd go with buying a unit. Sure, building a unit is nice and inexpensive. But what happens when a component fails? Sometimes the warranties and the peace of mind is worth the extra money, at least for businesses.
