      What happens if the power supply in the server dies? You still want something to backup the cache on the controller card to cover this instance.

      Ah, good point. Possibly a reason they go with the H710 then! And enterprise-class SSDs with power protection.

      Goes right to iCloud.

      I'm not sure I don't like my OCD control over my pictures.

      But I have to admit it's pretty nice not having to worry about it.

    • RE: Storage Question

      Sorry to keep replying, but everyone is posting so quick I don't want anyone to miss anything.

      The 480GB Kingston SSDs are under $250 each including cage and 3.5" adapter. So cost isn't really a concern there either.

      The KC300 is a pro drive (similar to the Samsung 850) that is tuned slightly for server use. It's not enterprise-grade, but my Kingston rep (who, with the rest of Kingston have been GREAT) thinks it will be fine for my usage.

      That syncing is a form of backup.. so it's not accurate to say there is no data on the phone you care about.. it's more accurate to say that anything on the phone you do care about is snyc'ed/backed up to someplace else that comes right back with my new/wiped phone.

      There is no data solely on the phone I am worried about losing because don't have it elsewhere, correct.

    • RE: Storage Question

      Well, even if I wanted to keep the backup DC, I could install Server 2012 on a desktop I have here, and at least save the cost of a second server.

      That wouldn't be crazy, right? Other than the license cost.

      @Minion-Queen said

      Yes we will. I will be asking for Tshirt sizes for attendees before I order. I never get a shirt that actually fits.

      Hence my comment on the Splunk shirts. They had 3X. Sweet!

      Time to switch it to OneDrive right now!

      After being escalated to three levels, still no resolution.

      Strangely enough I think the third level (who English was not his first language) was the worst. He kept called Google Chrome "Google dot com"

      He already paid for the license. So it is free now.

      I technically haven't paid for it, but we ended up doing it in monthly payments, and I'm not sure the paperwork can be stopped.

      Are you really recommending NOT to have a backup DC. Everything I have always read said to definitely do it. I think I'd feel better with it, but I can be talked out of that!

      The conference is very close to the train station in Rochester.

      If I end up attending I'll probably be doing this from Trenton.

      And what does that have to do with anything? Most products have a beta cycle.

      In relation to the previous comment in which I felt @IRJ thought this was a very recent thing.

      Well.... Linux. πŸ™‚

      My head has gone from
      9am: swimming
      2pm: spinning
      5pm: almost off axis

      Linux would be the end of me.

      I'm finding out if I can take 1 license off the paperwork. Maybe I'll order the 3rd party RAID controller and my day will be complete!

      I wonder where @scottalanmiller is hiding, usually he's wide-eye and bushy tailed.

      He should be up posting by now if @Minion-Queen is.

      Age does eventually put you in your place.

      When I was in my 20s, I'd be out drinking until 5, get 2 hours of sleep, and just coffee my way though the next day. RInse and repeat.

      If I drink heavily now I'm out of it for 2 days. And I'm only 41!

      Too bad it is slightly hazy today. You can see downtown Rochester on a clear day from where he was standing in the first part.

      THAT is slightly hazy?
