    Motherboard HDD limitations

    in Questions

    Posted · Edited by MR. M

    Am having a storage issue with my Dell PowerEdge 840 which is my web server/file server. The documentation for the server says that each of the four sata ports on the motherboard can only support hard drives up to 1TB in size, and i confirmed this by reading posts of people having issues with larger drives no matter what OS their using. Can installing a sata controller that supports larger drives bypass this issue.

    Thanks, in advance

    NIC Teaming Question

    in Questions

    Posted

    You can bridge them or even use one for up and one for down stream, if the program is capable, but in most cases double nics are usually used for failover. In wireless, combining antenna arrays helps boost speed and signal bridging multiple wireless, but I'm not sure on the wired side if that helps improve speeds or will cause issues. One good thing is being able to set each nic to different subnet and vlans so you can reach different networks from the same machine, but I guess the best answer, is try it. See if you can find a tutorial on nic teaming and what it the benefits are and how it works.

    Most of us learn by doing, trial and error, so if you come up with something cool and it all works out, post your setup and progress so others will benefit from your experience.

    You're right, the only way to know is trying it out. Thanks for the tip!

    NIC Teaming Question

    If i team 2 or more NIC's, does each nic still keep their pysical ip address even though virtual one has been created?

    Am asking this because i currently have a Windows Server 2012 Server with a Dual Gigabit PCI-X card with an IP set on each ethernet port, and each one is linked to an FTP server. am wondering if i do the NIC teaming will this conflict with the dedicated ftp servers.

    If you buy the Galaxy Nexus or Nexus 4 from Google they will do tethering out-of-the-box without any additional apps.

    Like Sitwon said, go for the Nexus 4, i recently upgraded to it and its awesome, the perfect size and has alot a processing power plus it supports tethering natively and for $299 + Shipping & Tax you can't go wrong.

    Vga Cooling Question

    in Questions

    Posted

    Depends where its placed on the mobo but many cases have placements for extra fans, on the sidewalls of the inner case as well as front and rear exhaust. I have one mounted on my sidewall of the case blowing onto my GPU, but my GPU also has a fan built in that sucks from the front side of the case as well. What type of board is it, and why do you feel you need extra cooling for the GPU alone?

    Because this card can play some newer games really well at stable frame rates, but the temps rises all the way to 100+ Celsius causing it to fail and restart the pc.

    Untangle would be a reasonable place to start. Also might look into pfSense, m0n0wall, simple iptables for small needs, Astaro...lots of them out there.

    Am also thinking about creating a X86 Router and of all the ones out their, I've only heard personal experience with Astaro Security Gateway. So try that one out.

    I installed ubuntu server + webmin and now it's everything you guys suggested web server, media server, proxy server, etc. And about my electric bill, electricity comes included in the rent so basically no matter how I use my electricity I always pay the same so I have it running 24/7.
