    $15k to spend - What would you do?

    For anyone who is recommending HA for Synology, have you actually set this up (and have it work correctly), because it's a hot mess. Synology support is lacking in it's advanced features. I love the little boxes for the SMB market, but trying to do something like the SHA thing, falls flat...

    Building a work SAN, need reccomendations

    Hey guys, I really appreciate your comments - gives me lots to look into and research. If anyone else has any hardware or software recommendations for the SAN, feel free to chime in. I'll take a look at a few of these listed and re-setup the testlab here. Now all I need is time. :) Thanks

    ECC Memory for Home ESXi hosts?

    Depends on how much memory the system is using. Any servers past 16G I usually move towards ECC, but for home use it's up to the user how critical the systems are.

    Building a work SAN, need reccomendations

    Hey all, A bit of a case study here, I hope I have enough detail, but don't bore you to death if you read this.. I'm tasked at work to expand our shared storage for a bunch of servers we host locally. We mainly host in-building file/domain/mail servers on HyperV, and mainly a SBS 2011 and...

    Building new Untangle router - need advice, thoughts.

    Hey, that's pretty much spot on to what we're running. I'm in Canada so we get burned for cross border shopping (don't get me started on 'free trade') but we can build similar from our suppliers.

    Building new Untangle router - need advice, thoughts.

    hey guys, thanks for the replies. I agree that it might need a bit more power than the atoms. It's so nice to have the atom box all pre-done, i'll have to lookup a mitx board that can take a dual core i3 I guess. It'll be fun to build at least. We changed out the old HP server to a socket...

    Building new Untangle router - need advice, thoughts.

    It's running the newest version of untangle. It has a few issues I think though, as it's not using full throughput of the internet connection (100meg cable) Plugging a laptop direct to the internet modem will result with full speeds on speedtest. We're looking at replacing the old server anyways.

    Building new Untangle router - need advice, thoughts.

    Hey guys, I'm looking at building a new router for supporting a few needs. First of all, it's going to be on 100down/10up commerical inet w/ 5 static IPs. I need to have 3 physical networks routing through this box - which I believe i'm going with Untangle, unless someone else can...

    Farm Pics ... Post yours

    I fold for HWC, current points leader. I don't do bitcoin stuff, never interested me.. I fold for the science, but it's become too much of a hassle to keep up with things lately. I'll re-do my folding farm later this year perhaps, if the SR3/X works well or get a few quad amd boxen. Power is...

    Synology 1511+ and multi-user setups.

    Users point to the static IP of the synology disk station. We have HP Procurve 1810G-24 switches in place. We have full fledged servers on the internal network, DNS, WINS - it isn't a name resolution problem. I have recreated this on two other 1511's at the shop that were going to go out...

    Synology 1511+ and multi-user setups.

    Hey all, Just thought I'd post a comment / question on the Synology DS1511+ disk station. We have a customer who edits photos for schools, and recently switched them over to a DS1511+ diskstation. They used to be on a Win2k8 server with onboard RAID0 setups for their shared drives, and...

    CyberPower Intelligent LCD 1350VA UPS

    We have a saying at work : friends don't let friends buy Cyberpower. I'm with the APC crowd - you get what you pay for. There is a reason Cyberpowers are half the cost of APC. I had too many of them fail at my last job (onsite systems admin for various companies) and now I only work with APC -...

    Setting up a VPN, where should I start?

    ugh, guys, i'm not feeding you bullshit. I'm also not about to say which customer it happened to, for obvious reasons. When we came in, in the morning - the system was logged in under a different account (AAAA00001 or something - new admin account) with the RDP screen locking the local...
