      His About Me says it all.


      "Overall daily management of the IT department where I'm a one man IT team that daydreams of Body Surfing and sip'n margaritas by the pool.

      I'm told all the time that i'm NOT your typical IT guy and I like that."

          @Kelly One of his biggest triggers for sure lol

          btw @scottalanmiller I have a need for high throughput on a production application server housing 75 TB. My best practice Raid 5 configuration is really going to shine

            RAID0 would be so much faster!

              @scottalanmiller I was this guy not too long ago and sometimes I revert back to being this guy now. I think if you listed what the benefits of virtualization are he would be more receptive as he most likely doesn't know them, kind of like if you started talking in-depth about SAN's to me--I'd have very little to add and I probably wouldn't understand most of it. I don't get the impression that this guy is trying to be bad at receiving help even though he is, just like I am sometimes even though I don't mean to be. It's just a matter of ignorance.

              Problem is, it's not my job to explain the same basics over and over again. They are well documented and he's a decade past it being okay to make this mistake. Really, explaining it without someone asking is quite condescending. If he disagrees with the industry, he's free to ask and that's the proper response.

                75 TB is a lot of data to RAID... Anything over 12 TB shouldn't be raided and should be just straight pass-through and set up as individual drives.

                              What is actually tough with that sarcasm is that you MIGHT have been meaning something like "because RAIN will use them" or something. So it is almost realistic.
