How Do I Know - Seagate 73GB 10K RPM Or 15K RPM SCSI HDD
Is there a way that I can check if the host provider installed the correct hardware for my server?
I had 3x Seagate 73GB 15k RPM SCSI so I wonder if there is a way to confirm that make sure they gave me the 15k but not 10k?

7200 Rpm HDD Vs. 10k Rpm HDD Performance
How much faster is a 10k rpm HDD vs a 7200 rpm HDD in a server environment? IMO, a 7200 rpm HDD is much faster than 5400 rpm HDD when it comes down to desktop PCs.. Just wondering if it's worth upgrading to a 10k rpm HDD from a 7200 rpm HDD and losing about 1TB of storage as well... (Comparing specifically 2 750GB 16mb cache 7200rpm SATA 2 HDD RAID 1 with 2 150GB 16mb cache 10krpm HDD in RAID 1)

15K Rpm SAS Disks Greater Than 146 GB
Currently we're using HP servers with 4 hot-swap bays that hold 3.5" Seagate Cheetah 15K RPM SAS disks, which we can get in 300, 450, and 600 GB flavors. I'm looking at the HP DL380/385 models which use 2.5" SAS disks. About the only decent 15K RPM SAS disk I've found in 2.5" form is the Seagate Savvio, but it doesn't come any larger than 146 GB. Anyone know of another enterprise-class SAS disk that has all of the following attributes: 2.5", 15K RPM, SAS, and at least 300 GB? (Please, no 10K RPM or SATA recommendations like the WD Velociraptor. I won't consider anything that's not 15K RPM SAS.)

RPM Clean Up
How do you go about figuring out what to remove? Example(groups): Installed Groups: Administration Tools Base Development Tools Dial-up Networking Support Editors Input Methods Legacy Fonts Mail Server MySQL Database Network Servers Printing Support System Tools Text-based Internet Web Server I'm sure its safe to remove printing, dial up, fonts, editors?, and web server(installed nginx). but when I list individual RPMs i have over a few 100 to go through. anyone know of a few documents to help my research go faster?

Rpm Erased
In a strange scenario one remote server is having issue itself with the rpm package. It seems that it got damaged and as the rpm itself is corrupted , it can not fix itself. The box is very critical and it can not be reinstalled as it is in remote DC. Is there any way to fix this without a reinstallation? System is RHEL 3 Update 6.

Roundcube Mail RPM Install
I'm just setting up my first server and first time dealing with whm/cpanel and wondering if someone could help me out. I'm trying to install Roundcube mail for all clients on the server (quite a few have requested it). Now i'm running Fedora 7 and its got a Roundcubemail RPM listed. So through WHM I chose to install that RPM and it went through the process and said done etc. Thing is its not showing up on the list of webmail clients when clients click on webmail section in Cpanel. Oh yeah its WHM/CPanel Version 11 Any ideas what i've missed. I looked online for install instructions but they really only appear to be for singular accounts etc not server wide

Help W/ Game Server Acceleration. Opteron 275, 2GB DDR440 ECC-R, 15k SCSI HD
Hi, I've been lurking around WebHostingTalk for a little while now and have finally decided to register and post. I see there are tons of knowledgeable game server professionals in this forum and thought this would be a great place to get some helpful hints while having fun at the same time. I currently have a server colocated in Los Angeles. I was able to get a server built for cheap with the following specs: IBM eServer 326 (1U) AMD Opteron 275 (room for 2) 2 GB DDR400 ECC-R 15K SCSI Hard Drives Windows 2003 Server Bandwidth: 3Mbps Burstable Mzima. I'm trying to run a couple of Counter-Strike 1.6 servers for a couple of friends and clanmates of mine. There are currently only 3, maybe up to 5 if possible, servers being run right now with 1 of them being a 24 player public server (which isn't really filled 24/7), the rest are private match servers. I've been trying to accelerate them each to 250FPS+, 250FPS for the public and 500FPS+ for the private match servers but am having running problems. The problem I am having is that only 1 of the servers will be able steadily maintain 500FPS. The other servers would fluctuate between 300 - 1000FPS. I've tried the "Windows Media Player/Flash" trick, and also the WinHL-Booster metamod plugin none of which have been able to suite our needs. We all want steady 500FPS w/ low pings for our private match servers for CALeague, because we all get jealous of each other. I’ve been searching around for a while and don’t know what else to do. Any help that you all can provide will be greatly appreciated.

How Do I Install With RPM To Install Dependencies Also
to installing linux software and have been beating my head for a couple of days. I just learned that I can use something on my CENTOS 5 - which is the same as RHEL 5 - to install the rpm and all dependencies. Numeric-24.2-1.i586.rpm is the rpm I want to install, if that matters. How can I do install it AND any dependencies?

Western Digital Or Seagate
We have been using primarily Western Digital drives in all of our server (Raid Edition Series "YS) but have had some problems recently with failing drives, or SMART errors on drives that were only a month or two old. I'm beginning to think maybe Seagate is a better choice? Based on all of the experience out there, which way do most of you lean...WD or Seagate?

Seagate OEM Drives... SUN Firmware
So I bought 4 little simple SCSI drives to build up an older dual p3 server... and they worked great. Later I bought 4 more and was going to build up an identical machine... but I ended up sitting on it for a few months. Now that I've gone back to it... I've discovered that the more recent 4 drives have a SUN firmware on them... and CentOS doesn't know how to install on them. ST318404LC I've managed to download SeaTools Linux CLI and other tools for downloading (uploading) a firmware file to the drives. However, I can't figure out a way to copy the existing flash on the working drives to a file, or I can't find a firmware update for the drives

Raid 10 7.2k Vs 15k Vs SSD
I am about to buy a new server with The Planet and I have received 3 offers with just the hard disks as difrence. A 4x 250 gig 7.2k version, a 4x 146 gig 10k SAS version and a 4x 146 gig 15k SAS version. I was actually interested in the new Intel X25-E 64 gig Solid State Drives however, they are still investigating if they are able to provide them. My question is, what solution would provide the best performance, and how noticable will it be? And will the new intel SSD's outperform the 4x 146 gig 15k SAS RAID 10 disks?

SATA 7k RAID 1 Vs. 2xSATA 10k Vs. SATA+SAS
I'm currently in the process of ordering a new server and would like to throw another $50-$70 at the default SATA II 7k 250 GB to increase performance. The server will host a site similar to WHT (php, mysql, and some forum traffic ). There are three options I can get for the price: 1. Add another SATA II 7k 250 GB and set up RAID 1 2. Add a 73GB 15k RPM SA-SCSI and put mySQL on it. No RAID. 3. Toss out the SATA II 7k and take two SATA 10k 150 GB instead. Put mySQL on one of them. No RAID. Please keep in mind that the question is budget-related (I know I can get more if I spend an extra $200 but that's not what I want ). Which of the above will make me happiest?

Hyper-V And SCSI
According to the documentation, Hyper-V VMs cannot boot from SCSI drives and requires an IDE drive for each virtualization. I'm new to Windows (Server 2008) and Hyper-V and planning out some hardware. Does anyone know if it is possible to: Set up the the server with 2 SATA Drives (Raid 1), along with 8 x Ultra320 SCSI Drives (Raid 5 or 6). Load the OS and set up all Virtual slices on the SATA drives, so that that virtual boot sectors are on the IDE drives, but the main bulk of the clients allotted space on the SCSIs? Is there issue with that and if so, how do you manage that?

SCSI Raid 0
currently my home comp is using a WD 7200 rpm drive, im thinking of upgrading it to raid 0 10k rpm drives, here are the drives newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16822116006 and this is the raid card, newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16816118050 and then i was looking into cables for a scsi drive but i know nothing about them, my friend showed me these cables he found provantage.com/cables-go-09476~7CBTE01N.htm but it says there scsi3 now does this matter? what is scsi 3 and can it be used for these raid cards and hdd, the cables i was lookin at newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16812193019 are 30 bucks each, now do i need to buy 2 of these for my raid 0 or what? any suggestions on what are the best scsi cables for me and best transfer rate? links would be great too.

1 SCSI Vs 2 SATA
I currently have a Dell Poweredge 2650 from a few years back, it is running... 2x Xeon 2.4ghz 512K 3GB DDR266 RAM 1x73GB SCSI Back in the day this system cost $2000, now it's not worth close to that. So my plans were to dump this bad boy as an SQL server, seeing it has the SCSI backplane and 3GB of RAM, and SQL usually doesn't need as much CPU as a web server. Now my question, would it be better to use this server or would it be better to build a cheap Core 2 Duo with a RAID0 array with a few SATA drives? Before you start going off on RAID0, it doesn't matter to me because I am using clustering/failover so data will not be lost and no downtime will be received if the array fails. Basically what I want to know, is it worth it to keep this server and build upon it or would it be better to sell this server and look into spending an extra few hundred to build a new system with SATA RAID. I'm going by price/performance rather than reliability as I am using failover to let you know once again .

SCSI To SATA Adapter
I am looking for something like this: [url] To work on an HP ProLiant DL360/380. All I know is they are SCSI U320 drive bays, or that is the type of drive they take. Can anyone provide any insight on what may work? We are trying to get a more cost effective way to get more storage into a server. The largest SCSI drive I can find is 300GB for $200. You can get 2TB drives for that much these days.

Database Server - SCSI/Raptor
I'm about to purchase a 2nd server to use as a database server. I've been quoted for 2 x SATA II 320GB hdd's in RAID 1 (the same of which I currently use on my single server), but searching around it appears SCSI is the norm for db servers. The problem is, my host does not offer these as a standard/upgrade option and they would need to be specially ordered (along with RAID card), which is expensive. The fastest disks they offer are 150GB SATA 10K Raptors. My question is, would these be sufficient (compared to SCSI) and do they perform noticeably better than the standard SATA II disks? Quoted database server specs: Server = 1 x Dual Core Intel Woodcrest 5130 Memory = 4G RAM Hard Drive 1 = 320G SATA II Hard Drive Hard Drive 2 = 320G SATA II Hard Drive Raid Config = RAID 1 (3 Ware Hardware RAID) Bandwidth = 3000G Multi-Homed Bandwidth IP Address = 4 IPs OS = Centos 4.6 32 bit Service Monitoring = Ping Monitoring with Email Notification Server Management = Self-Managed Control Panel = None $239 Monthly

SA-SCSI Drive For MySQL Server
We have a powerful server for our databases, 8 cores, 4gb ram etc because we have a huge amount of MySQL data. We store the data on a standard SATAII 500GB drive, would we notice a dramatic performance improvement if we stored the data on a SA-SCSI 10/15k drive?

SCSI, SAS Vs SATA II Reliability
is it really worth the money nowadays to put in SCSI or SAS instead of SATAII (single disk, non-raid here), IF reliability is the only concern (i.e. NOT i/o performance) during the usual 3 year life time of a server? Actually, I was pretty amazed by the sata reliability, in the past 3 years the only hdd failure was two sata on a mismatched mobo, which didn't support SATAII (a lot of read/write error, eventually died). Although we have 0% scsi and sas failure.

Installing Win2k3 On SCSI Raid
HI have an urgent need to get this server up. I am trying to install 2x147gb U320 drives on a Tyan S5372 board with the Adaptec AIC-7901x SCSI controller module. I have setup RAID 1 so far and updated the Bios to latest version as well. For some reason when I specify the additional device drivers for the adaptec card for scsi win2k3 still doesn't recognize the drives. I don't know what to do now and time is running out. I have tried over and over again with different disks thinking it could be a bad disk however that is not the case. I hooked up a sata drive to this server and win2k3 installed fine.

SCSI Controler Adaptec 7899 - Driver- Linux
I have got a server with the following specs: Dual Xeon 2.4 Ghz 6 Gb DDR ECC REG 1 HD 147 Gb 15K On the board, there is an SCSI adapter which is an Adaptec 7899. This configuration is working perfectly under Windows 2003. However, as per customer request, I have to install CentOS, RedHat or Fedora. Even Debian is OK. However, during the install, the OS find NO hard drives and the installation is aborted. I googled some time and it looks that there is 1 million people looking for a solution on how to install Linux on a machine with an AIC-7899. The installer loads a driver AIC-7XXX but didn't find the device anyway.
