      LOL - don't just throw drives at it, design it.

      F*** that!!

      MOAR IOPS!

      With an R430 as the host, I'm thinking this is a good approach. But there was some talk of adding a second CPU.

        You'll run out of I/O (or RAM) before you run out of CPU I'd wager - even with 8 drive OBR RAID10 - this has been my experience anyway. FWIW we run lots of small VM's.

          Just fired up a laptop that smelled like burning death.

          Happy to find out it was only human slime getting roasted.

            yeah I'm in this boat. Dual socket 6 core - I'm out of IOPs and storage space - RAM isn't really an issue.

              I'd really suggest spending that money on RAM and disk IOPs instead.

                I was thinking the same. I'll be able to dictate the upgrades for it, but it's nice to know I don't really have a hard budget.

                        Just found out my niece hit a fever of 105 this week... seems like it's been going around

                          Just heard the tale of a friend's uncle (former nasa scientist) who, when applying to work at Northrop Grumman, encrypted his resume and nobody could open it.... He got the job.

                            That one sounds a little farfetched unless there was something else that got him the job in addition to the resume.

                                Have to agree. You'd just send them gibberish if you wanted to do that. Making something unusable is trivial. This just implies NG is a big joke and will hire anyone.

                                            I have been wondering that myself - I just wonder if they are doing something in Japan that is keeping them upright.
