All gone thanks guys! They're all used and guaranteed non DOA. That being said, they are used and being sold AS-IS. Due to the sheer amount I have I cannot possibly post CrystalDisk results for every single drive however if you are serious about buying I will do it on a per-person basis...

Ok so here's the deal: I've been looking at setting up some VPNs for local SMBs. As far as I can tell, the best route is the ASA 5505, using the 5 UL pack. Any thoughts? I like the newer client they use and honestly I don't want a custom nix box or anything. Just something I can configure and...

I want my VCP. I've used: 3.5, Server 2.0, and now 4.1. (done migrations, ground up builds, etc). I'm sure I know all of 5% of the material but I have a few years experience. Should I still opt for the VMware vSphere: Install, Configure, Manage [V41] or just take the Troubleshooting course...

Not sure if this belongs here but I couldn't find a suitable subforum.. In my institution I deal with a lot of requirements for data destruction and am often left with a stack of SATA drives left to DBAN or nuke in some other DoD approved fashion. Just wondering if anyone else has used some...

Ok so far I've gleaned: http://www.fogproject.org/ http://easeus.com/ http://www.clonezilla.org Any other suggestions? In particular this would be nice for field work but I'm not opposed to bringing it back to 'home base' to complete the imaging (more like imaging a rebuild before it goes back...

Background: I've always setup in-house mail servers/dns/etc. This time around I am doing a VPS that will handle almost everything for multiple small brochure sites. Should I bother setting up postfix or exim4 on this VPS or just setup Google Apps for each domain I host?

I've got about 10-12yrs experience doing onsite IT for businesses. Was enough $ to supplement during high school and was good money through college. Although my list of clients is down to a handful since going fulltime (working for a corp now) I still enjoy keeping it fresh on the SMB side and...

Hi - I'm having a bit of a problem. I have a server which I need to add 5 or more hard drives in removable trays. The server does not have enough bays to do this inside the chassis. So, I've decided I need to find a decent PCIe RAID card with 4+ external ports and an external enclosure that...

Hey I am trying to power my nano via my cigarette lighter in my car. I want to just make a cable from a female usb port to the 12v cigarette line. What I am asking is does the nano just take 5v at 500mA or more current? The reason I ask is because my laptop will claim it's taking up too much...

Ok so I would like to be able to manage one of my clients' networks remotely. My understand is that the most secure method of doing this with a SOHO router is to enable RD on the windows boxes, change the RDP port on the Windows boxes, then forward a port on the router to the new RDP port on the...

Has anyone ever done this? I am looking to do this on my fileserver running 2003 Server R2 and wanted some recommendations.....Thanks!

Ok so I am running a Fedora VM in windows, in which I want to install VMWare for Linux (I know :p ). I have not installed VMWare in FC5 before, and it is asking me for the kernel headers (normally found in /usr/src/linux/include). I can use yum to install the latest kernel headers but I need...

Ok so I have a little Fedora test box I use sometimes for school. My question is this: I have the NIC configured, I am pulling an IP, but I cannot browse the web, sftp, ping, etc. I can see that I am connected to a Windows network, but I need to be able to do all of the above. Help?

ok so here is the issue. I recently networked an office and installed a few CAT5 drops. I would like to use the existing holes in the wall to facilitate both the drops and a couple RJ11 jacks. I already got 4 plug faceplates for this but I am somewhat clueless as how to wire a RJ-11 line to a...

Ok so I have been studying network designs and was wondering how Bus topology could be practical with CAT5? wouldn't you have to run x times as much cable for the amount of drops (from say a patch panel)?

Anyone have a good example of this? I am looking for a bitstream encoded using delay encoding (Miller).....any help would be appreciated!

Ok so I am looking to buy a rackmount SCSI enclosure for additional storage on one of our servers. It would need to have the controller included, but not necessarily the drives. Would like to have the capability of 2 hard drives minimum Thoughts?

I've been at a client's site migrating/installing the new network for 16 hours straight now...:eek: The business cannot run without the network, so what does network downtime mean to you? :D PS - Going from Netware 3.12 to XP, so you can imagine the shit I've gone through at this point
