Australian HDD's And U.S HDD's
May 15, 2008
I have servers located in the U.S that we manage for all our customers, i am able to send over some hard drives for my servers that i have pre-purchased over here in Australia how ever i dont want to send the hard drives over there unless they will work in my servers.
What i am wanting to find out is there a difference between Hard drives that are bought in Australia and hard drives that are purchased in the U.S? due to the power differences? if i send these HDD's over will they work in my servers?
Also what about servers, if i send over some built servers from Australia to be placed in my racks, will these work? or not possible because of the power differences?
if anyone could give me a heads up on this one i will be so pleased and will offer a months free shared hosting account.

I am curious as to whether there is improvement in a 4x HDD RAID 10 array vs an 8x HDD RAID 10 Array.
If so, Is it GREAT improvement?

With 1.5TB drives out now and 500GB and 1TB being dirt cheap, I still see that 80-120GB is standard on dedicated servers. If you want a 500Gig you will pay up the ***. Why is this? It's actually EASIER to buy a 500GB drive then a 120GB one nowdays.
I'm guessing it's because they still have tons of the lower space ones on site so it stops them from needing to buy new ones.

I have 2 questions:
1) I have one 80Gb HDD and one 250Gb HDD ( all are s-ata ).
In which practical way they should be partitioned? I thought to setup OS on 80Gb HDD and /home on 250Gb HDD.
2) Which version of CentOS is currently the most stable for cPanel? I had an experince with CentOS 5, there were various problems with mail and mysql.. And now I want to install CentOS 4.6.
The server will have CentOS and cPanel installed.

Just bought a new OEM 3ware 9500S-12 SATA RAID Controller from ebay for $250, is it a good deal? Does it work with SATA-II HDDs?

Everything I found is the type of RAID controller installed. It's Adaptec 4800SAS SA-SCSI RAID-10. Nothing in /proc about types of HDDs.

Been through the forums here trying to find some recommendations for a good Dedicated Host based in Australia (preferably around Brisbane).
My search hasn't been too fruitful. I hear great things about Segpub but while they're an Australian company there servers are actually located in the US. Still I suppose their support would be on Australian time and from what I understand they host via Rackspace.
So basically, I'm looking for recommendations from people who have actually been with the hosts they're recommending for some time.

We are a UK based company but run several sites (currently 5) in Australia with a hosting reseller. We have a 5 host package and are looking to expand as we need to add new sites.
The current hosting seems to be a bit clunky and we have experienced a bit of down time now and again. One of the main issues is that we currently register au domains with a different company who only let you manage one domain at a time rather than having an account with all your domains in there like the UK.
Can anyone recommend a high quality Australian web host that allows you to purchase / manage domains as well?

if any of you know any reputable data centers located in Australia. It does not matter what part of Australia, just that its located in that country. I'd appreciate your feedback or links.

I wanted to know who has the best service and location for Australian customers. I currently have a Cali server but require something a little cheaper.
Most of our customers are in Australia and so a top end reseller plan with fast server to Australia would be wonderful.

can anybody refer me good Australian LAMP (Linux/Unix-Apache-PHP-MySQL) hosting?
It should be not crazy expensive, with upgrade options (if project traffic grow), with good support, fast and on non-overcrowded server.
Ideally it also should pay me (as developer) commission for hosting the client's project.
And yes, it should be Australian both in term of company registration and physical location of servers.

I was wondering what people in Australia use with regards to data centers. Do you go local in Australia or are overseas data centers just as good, with regards to speed?
If local what do you guys use?
If overseas, where do you get the fastest bandwidth to Australia, etc.

I know Brent from HostGator reads here so thought I share this, If you are an Australian you are more than likely getting phishing emails supposedly from Commonwealth Bank (Australia's largest bank). I get about 20 a day to all my email addresses, here's one I got today:
We recorded a payment request from "HostGator -www.hostgator.com- Reseller Web Hosting"
to enable the charge of $74.95 on your account.
Because the order was made from an African internet address, we put an Exception Payment on
transaction id #POS PAYM7284 motivated by our Geographical Tracking System.
THE PAYMENT IS PENDING FOR THE MOMENT.
If you made this transaction or if you just authorize this payment, please ignore or remove this email
message. The transaction will be shown on your monthly statement as "HostGator - Reseller Web Hosting".
If you didn't make this payment and would like to decline the $74.95 billing to your card, please follow
the link below to cancel the payment :
Cancel this payment (transaction id #POS PAYM7284)
NOTE: Because email is not a secure form of communication, please do not reply to this email.
© Commonwealth Bank of Australia 2009 ABN 48 123 123 124
Of course I'm not a customer of this bank nor am I with HostGator, but these emails are getting more sophisticated by the day.. please also see [url]
