I think you meant Office 364.

Ironic? Coincidence? Hope your dad got something as well. :p

I believe Toughswitch (regular 5 port) supports only 24V PoE devices. Toughswitch Pro (8 ports) do support both 24v and 48v devices (but not both at the same time???).

I didn't know other people ran the same configuration as mine. My esxi server, also, has an Apple sticker on the outer case. :D

x9scm-f is very nice. Once I opted for a board without the f feature, and then I cried. A lot.

Wow, these are some serious numbers. It makes my Intel 320 look like a turtle in comparison.

I'm not an expert on this, but Intel RES2SV240 is a port expander. It doesn't communicate with the drives by itself, it requires a separate raid controller. So, *** Motherboard -> RES2SV240 -> 21 drives *** will not work. Instead, it has to be *** Motherboard -> Raid controller -> RES2SV240...

I also have 2 br10i cards working on two slots.

Wait, do these reduction affect the HDs already purchased? Or, are they talking about reductions from 5 years to 3 years for *newly purchased HDs*?

One thing that refurb has going against the new HDD is that it's a lot cheaper than a new one - with "practically" the same warranty, if you do buy the refurbs at reputable dealers.

what's really strange about this card is that the components are on the wrong side of the card. I wonder if this is because the image is mirrored, or is really backwards.

I have one coming in tomorrow, although it's slightly different (Seagate Cheetah ST3300657SS, no encryption). I'll test and report back.

esxi 5, the VM controlling the SAS-drive/BR10i is Solaris 11. BR10i is delivered via VT-d into Solaris 11. The sucker was working perfectly fine, no slowdowns, with four striped disks of ST3300657SS-H (Dell's version of Cheetah) + 4 other SATA disks, in exact same configuration before.

I'm running a single SAS drive as its own filesystem within ZFS and am encountering a really strange problem. Background: I recently acquired Seagate Cheetah ST3300557SS, which is 300GB SAS 6Gb/s drive with encryption. I have it connected to a BR10i in one of the channels along with 7 other...

Haha! Although, I'm sure the coffee makers would never call it a "pound of coffee" where its packaging blatantly displays 11oz or 12oz. If they did that, that would be really easy money for all the lawyers in this country.

I have that exact Q67 board with a 2100T. It is able to do a passthrough for VT-d, but I couldn't actually use the mobo with ESXi because its onboard 82579 controller is not supported by esxi yet. It has morphed into my main workstation machine so far. In terms of use, I must say the thing is...

You should call FiOS. You can sign up for that price with a 1 year commitment and not two years. I think Verizon is pushing for larger customer-base with more attractive pricing and less contractual commitments. 25/25 isn't really much of a difference compared to 25/15 though... I mean, who...

I think it's an understatement that OCZ has had some bad reputation regarding the Agility 3 series. Search "Agility 3 issues" on the webz and see what kind of threads come up. :)

I agree. I run pfsense now, but before that I ran the ASUS router with dd-wrt. Rock solid, the router never reset. I think it was N16 or something similar - I'm sure Asus comes up with better models now.

D-link routers in general sucks. A lot. You're probably using one of the older models too. I used to run DIR-655 until I decided to upgrade past v1.21, where I had problems that sounded just like yours. I solved it by... drumroll drumroll drumroll replacing the router with a different model...

That can't be right... 39995.0 ms is almost 40 second latency. The system should be practically frozen?

To my knowledge, the switch handles the transfer speeds - if computer #1 and #2 can be connected directly, they'll talk at gige speeds and with #3 1 or 2 both will talk only at fast ethernet speeds. So, no #3 shouldn't affect the switching performance. There are many router designs. Sometimes...

I noticed that the total capacity of the C drives in the two benchmarks are different, yours being smaller. Did you partition the drive into multiple partitions?

Reasonable speculation, your pricing makes perfect sense. Thanks.

HP Procurve 1810g-8?

It was both for me. I had a SAS drive plugged in and humming along just fine, but then the LEDs (both blue and green) stopped working. Maybe it's a vibration or QC issue. I've no idea.

I returned one of the SAS backplanes today under warranty because one of the LEDs failed to light up from the array of four. There's something wrong with the soldering jobs in general of these backplanes, especially for the LEDs. The backplanes themselves work great, sometimes the LEDs just...

It will be sweet until the e7 series motherboards start to come out. I'm hoping I can afford one. Looking at the expected channel pricing for the e7s though, it'll be tough...

750 to 800 sounds about right to me as well - those two gtx 570s are going to consume around 500 watts during load, maybe more.

Oh wow, the price went up like crazy! So glad I got in on the action before the increase. :D

This is a joke. Look at the username - the creator of this account is making fun of Vito.

I just got myself a mini-itx Intel DQ67EP and one of those new 2100T processors with 35w TDP. I'm still in disbelief for the amount of processing power this thing packs for its size (no bigger than a regular 3.5" external USB drive) and max power usage - 25w idle, 45w max load. Currently...

I just got an SG300 myself as well. I've never used managed switches before, but I'm really liking them now - the stuff that you could do with managed switches vs unmanaged makes so much difference.

Just connect the backplanes and use them for a while - transfer whole bunch of files, etc.

It looks like some can qualify for the rebate for the SG-300 series. Check out ciscorebateprogram.com for the specific models and/or specific rebate amounts.

Depends... I think the V181x, V17xx are still lifetime warranty. http://h17007.www1.hp.com/docs/support/warranty/HPNetworkingProductWarrantySummary.pdf

How many videos are in the directory? It could just be that there are too many files in one directory. I generally find that in NTFS, regardless of filesizes, I start to notice slowdown of access times at 2000+ files and practically useless beyond 10,000+ files. Strictly limited to one...

Haha! I thought it would take a lot longer than one day for someone to start complaining about the new "limitations." :D

Haha. I know this is a joke, but it's actually really easy to gain requirements to sit in for the CA Bar - you just attend law school, accredited (hard to get into) or unaccredited (pretty easy). CA is the outlier among all the states - I believe they're the only one that allows unaccredited...
