    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    So the extra memory you can put in the "higher end" cards will not help at all when hooking up 20 drives to the expander? Was planning to use this to host my virtual machines so Id like it to be as snappy as the card can deliver.

    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    Is there any reason to get the more expensive cards over the base version if you plan to use this with an expander and dont need the extra ports the $700+ cards offer?

    Possible to run VCenter on intel atom ?

    is vcenter to esxi virtual machines what "hyper-v manager" is to hyper-v 2008 r2 virtual machines? But it sounds like you need a dedicated server to run it off of where hyper-v manager has a really light footprint and can run on a win7 workstation?? (excuse my ignorance, starting to...

    Putting the VM's on a NAS

    I was planning to use iSCSI as my NAS is running server 2008. I've never seen a VM host server before?? Is it going to be much faster?? The reason I would like to use the NAS was to avoid the costs associated with building another server, and because I think the NAS has enough free resources...

    Any harm in using a class A network?

    Any harm in using a class A network?

    I didn't know they would initiate connections on their own...? If I do this and I'm at a workstation, then I want to check on a server can I still RDP into it as if they were on the same subnet / vlan or will I have a problem? When you said a vlan for network management, what exactly falls...

    Any harm in using a class A network?

    Just curious: How come the most used mask is /24?? Its for 254 host addresses right? What kind of bad things happen if you use larger than 24, such as /20 or .. comedy option /8?? But I see /24 the most, what about smaller masks like /27 and the smallest is /30 right or 2 hosts? :confused:
