Its sad we have so many members and this thread has been viewed less than 300 times now. I guess people really dont pay attention to the news section.

Yeah, well, it's not really as interesting as the other forums. Hell, I just found out it had a separate RSS feed oh 15 minutes ago. I guess the whole sig thing proves it's important, though.

Seems like those server upgrades are paying off if you can hand out upgrades like that. You're gonna go from 6GB of data to a lot more - real quick. Wish you luck with that one man :huh: .

2 raid 1 U320 containers 146 gigs each. Not sweating it.

not bad, especially for a website. I wasn't just commenting on storage space and speed though, but backups + bandwidth, too. I don't know what the connection is, but someone's paying for it... Right now I'm upgrading a site from U320 to Fibre, got a powervault 220S loaded with U320 36g 15k Cheetah's, 2 RAID5 controllers, and three cold spares. Trying to get $1800 for it, but that would benefit any VS people, especially VS itself, that price could definitely fall..

Got excited and thought you were looking for that. I have 2 NAS' I need to unload. Both IBM 8 15k U320s with the spf modules. I wish I could have held out on the new server some for the new tigertons. I love massive overkill and scalability. I guess thats obvious by the server and truck but anyways. I also upped the movie limit on regular members to 6 megs.

Yeah, that's what I'd consider four cores... It seems like bandwidth, then IO, then Ram would be the limiting factors at this point, though.?

6MB for regular members wow that's generous. I figgure there are 18k members total, who knows how many active... I guess that fits well with 147GB, tho. Wasn't it just 1MB only a few months ago...? What next, VS hosting?

Setup that's replacing the U320 = Dell FC4700, at 1.8TB. If that doesn't offer enough space and throughput, I don't know what will. Supposed to hold 360 MBps sustained.

I will host now if its a worthwhile site. IE if you wanted to do an entire site on detailing I would open up detailing.volvospeed.com and get you an ftp account and such.
