Did some more testing today and have determined that it has something to do with the SAS2008 controller. As I mentioned, I went ahead and made a new pool directly from within Solaris and started migrating data to it. Not a lot of data, but enough that I didn't want to delete it for no...
Thanks for the insight. I was trying to avoid the hacked zpool binary. FYI, I went back and tried it with ZFSguru 1.7 and used the default filesystem and pool versions. Same result. I even tried to import it into OpenIndiana with the same result(tried this just for the heck of it). I can...
Maybe someone here will have some ideas because I haven't come up with the answer on google. I'm new to Solaris and ZFS, so maybe I'm overlooking something. I'm having trouble importing a pool I made in ZFSguru 1.8 (Latest release, not preview) into Solaris 11 Express. I am able to import the...
Welcome. I actually missed these twice in the past week, missed them by a couple hours both times. FYI, these are still showing in stock as of right now.
Much thanks for this guide. I originally found it over at We Got served and was directed to your thread here. This guide is a lifesaver for me since I have 6 of these drives I wanted to add to my WHS. Added 2 last night and all seems well with them. Thanks again.
Just thought I'd post this for you guys. I found this guide over at We Got Served on how to add a drive to the storage pool after aligning. Also works for adding drives with GPT partitions to the storage pool. I was able to use this guide to add 2 of these drives to my storage pool. So far...
"laptop" works and I think "tiger direct" works, without the qoutes of course. Struggling with this decision, I'd been looking at the Asus netbooks with 11+ hours of battery life, but this is $85 cheaper and a good bit more powerful. Half the battery life though. Though, if it fits, you could...
The only issue I've had with the board wasn't even related to ESX. I've been unable to get the ASMB4-IKVM module to work. I suspect its an issue on ASUS's end since they usually use these with 3 nic boards. Reading the bios updates, it sounded like it should have been fixed about 2 updates...
Did you find specific info the indicated the pike 1068 was compatible with esx4? Just curious because I'm currently running the z8na myself with esx4 and will need to add more hard drives in the future, but my preliminary research did not yield any concrete info that the pike 1068 was...
Asus has a new 1005 model coming out with a 1366x768 display and Broadcom BCM 70015 crystal HD chip. It's called the 1005PR. Haven't been able to find any release date info though. It looses a couple hours of battery life compared to the 1005pe, but if it lives up to it's claimed 11 hours for...
I have the board(ASMB4-IKVM) attached and configured and it seems to be functioning, but I'm unable to connect to it. I believe it has something to do with the fact that the board only has 2 onboard nics and the ASMB4-IKVM board was designed around boards with 3 or more nics it seems. When I...
Not quite as [H]ard as some of you guys, but it does what I need it to for now with room for exapnadability.
Asus Z8NA-D6 (wish I could get the asmb4 managemnt board to work)
1 x Xeon L5520 Quad (once the price comes down a bit, I'll pick up a second)
6GB DDR3 1333 (waiting for...
I bought this the last time they had this deal. FYI, if you get a bad disc, getting it replaced will be a debacle. I didn't get around to watching all the discs for quite some time and by the time I did, I discovered one of my discs wouldn't play. Tried it in 5 different dvd players. So I...
Mine's powering my low-power, mini-itx based ESXi server powering untangle and WHS. However some mishaps occurred after installing the PSU (not related to the PSU install) and now it appears that hardware will get replaced. I'd like to go low power again, but I have specific constraints and...
Not sure whats up with your order, I can tell you that I didn't have any problems with this deal. I ordered mine on the 19th, it shipped on the 20th, and I had in my hands on the 23rd. Would have been the 22nd, but fedex decided to be lazy. I wonder if they got hit with alot of orders for it...
That's what I paid when I ordered mine. It is a little more than newegg, but provantage has a better return policy. As far as I know the rebate still applies though(but tomorrow is the last day).

Good to know. Luckily my monitor had no stuck/dead pixels, so I didn't need to test their policy. I'm probably going to order a second one, so it is good to know their customer service is good.
Mine finally arrived today. So far, so good, no dead/stuck pixels. So far, I'm liking it alot. Seems pretty good for the money so far. If my opinion doesn't change in the next couple days I believe I'm going to order a second one.

Having never ordered with them, I can't say for sure, but according to their return policies page, that's only if the item is listed as manufacturer's warranty. The VW266H is currently listed as Standard 30 Days Return, which according to their policy is returnable as long as the original...
Has anyone ordered the VW266H/VK266H through provantage? Just wondering if anyone has input on how the special order went. I'm afraid to order from newegg because of the pixel policy, but I'm also afraid it'll be on order from provantage for like a month. Just wondering if anyone has any...
