Buggy as Hell. NaCL module keeps crashing. The few times it worked, just playing with my favorites in the favorites bar was enough to crash it. I'll wait for a future version.

Damn! Looks like Mooner had a heart attack before finishing his post.

She's ingenious.

It never came to my mind to try opening a .txt with a spreadsheet, probably because a .txt should be handled by something like Word, Writer, Notepad or similar. I don't consider a basic functionality for a spreadsheet to be able to handle text documents because there's another tool better...

I guess you meant "Constellation"? There are others : ST4000DM000 (standard Barracuda) and ST4000VN000 (their NAS drive). Oh, my bad. Those two are 5900rpm, not 7200rpm.

You won't go to jail if you do it, but it looks like a nice way to increase your odds to lose data.

I saw it. Mightily impressive. An HP DL580 G8 with 4 E7-4890v2 and 1TB of RAM should cost around 50K$ to 55K$, without the disks. A Fujitsu PrimeQuest 2800E with 8 E7-8890v2 should be approximately 100K$ (again, without the storage). That's much cheaper than a high-end RISC server.

There is no price for the new generation, but the 1500$ I wrote was based on the price of the old-generation model.

Any reason why you've decided to go with the almost-forgotten OpenOffice suite instead of LibreOffice, which has more support and is maintained by the bunch of folks who started OpenOffice, but then decided to give Oracle the finger and forked to LibreOffice? I know that OpenOffice has been...

Noise won't be an issue. While the environment won't be particularly dirty, the server will sit in an industrial complex next to heavy machinery.

Wow! Compare the prices I expected for the new Xeon E7-48xx v2 on November 28th 2013 with the official list prices from Intel here. I waas spot on, except for the E7-4820v2 that I missed by 1$. So, the very first place on the entire Internet to accurately list the official MSRP from Intel for...

That's where I'm leaning.

...or I could purchase a 3-year next-business-day hardware support (HP #U6E91E) for ~160$ with the DL320e. I'll check if I can find an HP SFF desktop in which I can put two HDD in RAID 1. Ideally with a Xeon E3 v2 or v3 inside too. Thanks for the replies.

I have a dilemna. I can either opt for a rackmount server or a desktop computer for a customer who doesn't need very high performing equipment. In my experience, rackmount equipment have a much lower failure rate than typical desktops. However, to fit within the allowed budget for that job, I...

The Supertalent PCIe SSD is too expensive for the allowed budget. I read ~1500$ for the 480GB model.

Intel will probably launch the new EX this week because there is at least one review of a production server using the E7 v2 Xeon.

Hitachi has been eaten by Western Digital. It's Samsung's mecanical disk division that has been swallowed by Seagate.

The 6TB helium drive from HGST consumes less power than this one. The Toshiba is probably cheaper though.

I don't know of a multifonction printer much smaller than a Bother MFC-J280W. It measures (W x D x H;cm) 40.5 x 37.8 x 16.

Your links are as pertinent as usual.

Not sure they're reliable, even still available, but the Mushkin Scorpion Deluxe 480GB and 960GB PCIe SSD sure are quite high performance. They are back-ordered everywhere I've look, but Antares Pro has the lowest prices (960GB model) and list them as "special order". As expected, they use a...

Dave is folding plenty. He's folding diapers all day long.

It seems to be available. I'll give it a try later this evening.

Has there been any significant improvement regarding AMD GPU support on Linux with the FAH client? Last time you wrote about it, AMD GPU support for Linux was suppedly flaky. I've stopped using my Radeon HD 7950 because one of the fans on it became noisy. I've also stopped using the Radeon HD...

I thought the openings were wider than what you describe. My bad. Also, the pictures in the document you linked had me thought about old bricks and wood constructions, which wouldn't sustain high level of humidity too well. All the houses here have concrete basements, so even with a vented...

Here, most houses have fully insulated basements and the ceiling is often as high as on other floors. With the kind of temperature we have, having a vented crawled space would be silly. The house would collapse in less than two decades, not to mention the high risk of criters invasion. That...

From a thread on HardOCP regarding a similar issue in UT 2004 : [/FONT][/COLOR]

I SAID NO CASH!!;-)

See, that's something I fail to understand. Even back in the original StorageReview forum, which perhaps wasn't perfect, but still was good enough so that many (most?) of us decided to register and participate, back in 1998-1999, forum software and the underlying hardware were good enough to...

I'm not too fund about the idea. Since my income is ok, but I'm still tight, I would pass for a cheap dude (which I have to be, unless I want to have money problems). And there's a risk that many will try to put extra efforts to help Ddrueding every time he has a question to suck him dry since...

It feels quite snappy at the moment. I've browsed several threads in various sections of the forum. No delay to speak of. We'll see if it stays that way in the long term, but so far, so good.Thanks.

According to Microsoft's validation tool, you can't create a cluster when the Windows Server version are not the same. Well, I just did and it works like a charm.My boss better offer me a bronze statue of myself during our yearly salary review.

They have renamed it "Duke Nukem Took Forever".

Cisco's part numbers for the new Xeon E7 v2 are at the bottom of that list.

There will be a new Duke Nukem game, based on the latest Unreal Engine, that will be announced in three weeks. Let's hope it won't be a disapointment like the previous release.

The Broncos are from Denver, not Detroit. The guy in question isn't an American. He just likes the Broncos, probably because he started to follow football around the time John Elways helped the Broncos win the Super Bowl twice in the nineties. I probably like the Bears because I started to...

I didn't know that, but AVG acquired Crossloop back in 2012. The AV firm decided to shut Crossloop down yesterday. Source Mercutio won't be happy.

I did not bet anything. I simply win bragging rights because I was right. An annoying (more like boring) guy at work has the Broncos as his favorite team. I also predict he'll be quiet tomorrow.

I was one of the few to predict a Seahawks win at the Super Bowl, but even I did not expect such a one-way game.

Just like Monday Night Football, we should start our "Come on, man!" show.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/interface-masters-announces-1-28tbps-161240671.html Back when the switch was officially launched in December, there was a bunch of announcements about it (just Google 2948-12XL-OCP). [/FONT][/COLOR]

I've tried both your string as well as : netsh interface ip set dns name="Ethernet 4" source=none and none work. Element not found was the computer's reply, but the interface's name really is Ethernet 4. If I do a : netsh interface ip show config, that's the name I see.I give up. I hate...

I get a message that the syntax of this command is incorrect.

I wouldn't be too surprise to see it at less than 20K$. There's a Supermicro switch with a similar switching capacity (1.28Tbps) that can be found around 11K$. It only has 4x40GbE ports, but it has the same 48x10GbE ports.

In case anyone here is looking to increase the networking capacity of their installations, you might want to take a look at this switch. It is a modular design from the Open compute Platform organisation. I don't know how much it cost, but it should be quite affordable compared to whatever...

It just need to have a static IP and no contact to the DNS. It also needs not to use NetBIOS. I don't know exactly how Server 2012 R2 will use it to communicate to the other clustered servers. I simply follow the "how to" guide to configure a cluster of Windows Server 2012 R2 servers. The...

I expect to be the only one here to have attempted to do this, but just in case, here it goes : I want to configure a Windows Server 2012 R2 cluster between three servers. Two of those are Windows Server 2012 R2 DataCenter and since they have a GUI, I've had no problem configuring them. The...

800$ for the SATA model. Stock (but not for long).

Sorry again for the poor formating. There's something on my work laptop that just screw up my post here.

Read the news.If we compare the SPECint_rate of the A1100 (80) with the one of some Intel processor, like the Xeon E3-1220L (90.6), the efficiency of AMD's latest design isn't all that impressive. The new A1100 has a TDP of 25W while the E3-1220L has a TDP of only 17W. I guess that...
