@pcan I'm sure most of my writes will be small since it's just for personal RDP usage with a private game server or 2 on it. One of the VMs will have drives replicated in real time to another server so lots of small writes there. I haven't ruled out the idea of used drives either since it's...

Those were the ones I was looking at before I opened this thread. :) Samsung 840 Pros are way out of my price range. Even their 128GB SSDs are too expensive for me budget. I will only do RAID10 so RAID5 and 6 are not an option for me with SSDs (everything I've read shows that parity based RAID...

Basically I need to buy 6 SSDs for my personal server and I'll be running them in RAID10 with a hardware RAID controller on an OS that does not support TRIM (and even if it did, I read that the hardware RAID would negate it anyways). I've read that SSDs with SandForce controllers have good...

Two Factor Authentication unless you don't care about your data.

I've done this twice so far and I'm only out $3 for $2 worth of BTC. Since I'm paying $3 for every $1 of BTC then $10 worth of BTC would cost me $30 which is way more than I'm willing to spend to test my script. Of course I could spend less and shop around, but I felt this was more fair.

I had considered that but I don't know what I'll do with them once I'm done testing. @Punjabi I got the full $1 worth so thank you for your help. It's greatly appreciated. :)

I've never owned an Apple device before but I've known enough Apple fanboys who complain about Apple enough to not ever want one.  :lol:

@Punjabi 14FcxnEKuTr1gZeiL2HkbgcgkKiaH6EKsq   PM me your Paypal e-mail and I'll send you $4 for your trouble.

Looks like BitPay has a minimum limit for bitcoin settlements so I'll need to have $1 worth of BTC sent to my wallet so I can keep testing my new client management system. PM me or reply to this thread for the wallet address or whatever you call it (yeah, I'm new to this bitcoin thingy) and...

I guess I'm just old school. Oh well.

Personally, I think if somebody completely new to the forum saw this thread they would close their tab and never look back. A simple decision to ban a person who's only contribution to the forum is cross-posting his Facebook status updates, turned into a 2 page public thread questioning the...

I was merely pointing out that posting a thread questioning the moderators without all of the facts looks poorly on how some people feel about the staff here. My post had nothing to do with you so I apologize if it came across that way.

I do like how the first step was handing out pitchforks and forming a mob against the moderators before actually contacting them to get the full story. It goes to show how little faith some people here have in our moderating staff. :(

I was waiting for Google to update the street view of the neighborhood in FL where my house is to see the work the person renting it did and Bing got a nice pic of it so now I can stop checking Google Maps every few weeks. :)

EDIT: Nevermind, not a big fan of ice cream. 

If you think he's banned for that advertisement then you don't know Matthew very well. I'm willing to bet he got banned on here for the same reasons he's banned on basically every other forum. It's a familiar song that goes something like this: 1) Thread gets closed. 2) Matthew contacts...

Damn, now I have to buy service from Wable now for being awesome.

Awww... the new router/switch I ordered won't be in stock for at least 1-2 weeks so I ordered the 24 port version instead. Might need to make some modifications to my desk to mount it properly now.

I was looking for a personal test box and decided to give Vultr a try mainly because of the location options which are nice for testing. Anyways I noticed that their IPv6 is still considered beta but anybody else notice that their IPv6 upload speeds are abysmal? I wasn't expecting gigabit...

At first I thought this thread was going to be about this. Just checked and I'm seeing our brute force detection script has been spitting out significantly more e-mails over the past 2 days.
