The most space efficient way of storing HDDs possible:
Ah, I missed that bit.I own the business so it counts.
Looks a lot like this:
$29 - 3-to-5 Mounting bracket
Well, 2 of the arrays are on 1 PE1950, and 2 are on another.@ cyr0n_k0r - Sweet setup. How big are the drives in the MD1000s and how big is the PE1950 alone?

Yes that seems a little bit more manageable. When I come across some very high-res photos online I just hit CTRL and "-" to bring things down to size, takes 2 seconds and doesn't really slow me down. The resolution you have there is fantastic. Personally, what I do is host a 640x480 version of my photos, post those but make the hyperlink go to the HD versions so if someone was using a netbook or something it wouldn't be hard to deal with, and it doesn't download the HD versions unless clicked on, thus saving bandwidth for those dial-uppers still lurking out there (you know who you are!). Just my 2 cents.Is this any better? Sorry, it looked fine to me at 19x12

I see you own the business, but you are not using the drives yourself, it's your business. Seems like a grey area but I still think the server should be running in your home's private network. Then technically if whoever owns houkouonchi's insane petabyte storage facility comes forward he could post it as his own. I think things would just get out of hand.
If I PM you my address would the answer be me?
Not much more space when you toss out the 1t's and replace them with 1.5t's. That's why I go double or nothing
Just out of curiosity, what do you guys store in all this? for my own personal use, I don't see much more than 5 Tbs, and thats with alot of stuff, and in the next year or so heh!
Porn.
Lots and lots of porn.
I already did, and I got no response.been busy

Backup strategy, for storage i have 2 arrays of 8 drives each; in each array 2 drives drives can fail (=raid6).

Ok i ment i have 2 arrays with each having 2 disk redundancy.Hmm not sure I understand what you mean by backup strategy? Your images show (by the masive difference in amount of data stored) that the two 8TB drives are not mirroring each other. Are you reffering to RAID 6 as backup? or that this system is a backup for your primary stores somewhere else?
{following not directly aimed at quoted post - more general}
It is a popular misconception that RAID 1/5/6/10 is backup when actually it is drive redundancy. I have known people losing a lot of data on RAID systems - not due to a drive failure but either controller/virus/user error - and then puzzled when that data can not be recovered. Backup should really be on a seperate system completely, preferably in a different physical location. Does not really mater if it is just your pr0n collection - but if any of that data is for a client or data you may come to rely on at a latter date it really needs a proper backup and safe storage solution (fire safe for external drives/offsite either sent or rsynced etc)
There does not need to be one - the clients connecting to the array can have a virus and wipe/alter the data (although if only an opensolaris client then agree)Ok i ment i have 2 arrays with each having 2 disk redundancy.
No backup strategy then.
I don't know of any viruses for opensolaris.
LOL only takes the one! - although with a good policy these can be made to workI protect against some user error with ACL's making deletion not easy.
I would not - having had EMC engineers scratching their heads for a weekend they finally conceded and replaced a controller that was wiping drives in a SAN - fortunatly the VMs and DATA are replicated in triplicate across global datacenters and it happened over a weekend so no business data lost.I trust SAS controller cards don't destroy drives when they break.
Hmm at what cost - I know employees are a fixed cost - but unless it is a NPO that month of downtime is an awfully big cost compared to the cost of proper backup - in this case could be tape - or another array.It is a backup for business files thou the working set is on a seperate workstation. The rest is for a large database project that if data is lost can be re acquired over a month.
The biggest flaw in data protection through replication is human stupidity.

9.6TB after formatting/RAID.
I have it directly connected to my desktop over a dedicated autonegotiated gigabit link and serving over NFSv4. Both desktop and server have dual NICs, so both are simultaneously connected to each other and to the internet. Each set of 8 drives is configured with software RAID5, and the two arrays are combined with basic LVM. The CalPC bays were purchased over the phone from California PC for $25 shipped per unit. If you don't like loud fans, make sure you have some quiet ones to swap in. Basically all inspiration was taken from Ockie. Upgrade path is to replace drives in chunks of 8 as needed.
What NFS client are you using? - The RAID controllers look like PCI - are you maxing out the throughput of 133MB/S with teaming the gigabit NICS? or are you only contecting in at the ma theoretical of 125MB/S?
[size=1]drives used:
2TB: HD203WI, WD20EARS, HD204UI, HDS723020BLA642, HDS722020ALA330
3TB: DT01ACA300, WD30EURS, ST3000DM001
4TB: HDS724040ALE640[/size]
Ooh, I think competing with Ockie will become an expensive proposition indeed.
after he gets 29 x 2T ... right Ockie?
basicly doubling his space ... its pretty much useless to try .... but for now ....
