Why Not To Buy From Rackmount Micro
May 10, 2007
2-3 months ago I ordered 2 machines to test them out. build and ship time was told a week. ok thats fair.
two weeks go by nothing.
third week get a hold of someone due to a company "move" and my sales guy being let go my order got lost somewhere. was assured it would be shipped out on monday overnight.
Tuesday rolls around no equipment. can't get ahold of anybody.
Week passes no word. I initiate a charge back. charge back starts its motion.
month later my charge back is reversed? puzzled. Geta hold of clark at RMM. was promised up and down that he would take care of it and call me on monday.
Few days pass. no word... So I get a hold of him on IM. he's still looking into it/talking to the bank?
another week or two passes. I contact clark the other day. says he has a conference and a meeting with the bank.. sure great whatever.
To this day still no response. So what i'm out 1425? i'm going to go backto my bank again and charge back yet again or send them after RMM.
Aparently the chargeback never went through because surprise surprise RMM's bank account was zero'd out. i.e no funds to take.
RMM. I'm tired of waiting and i'm tired of the lies. Just take care of it, I hav avoided this and I will continue to tell people why its not a good idea to use your company when people ask for hardware venders and requests.

to buy some servers ( I am at full capacity) and I was wondering if RackmountMicro.com is a good place to buy equipment? I used to buy from Dell, but i have had some issues and i think that their servers are pricey.
Any good words on RackmountMicro? to get 10 Dual Core 6600.

I've recently gotten a new dedicated server and am in a bit of a bind because all emails to Comcast are blocked. I have verified that the IP is not on any RBL I can find but it does appear on the Trend Micro DUL list. This is a list that appears to not be maintained but which the wingnuts at Comcast are using. Emails to the maintainer of the list or to Comcast are auto-responded to and promptly ignored.
I'm at wits end (admittedly, not a long journey) with this. As a small provider I guess I just don't count but it is annoying as hell that there is no way to get these folks to listen. Every legitimate RBL on the planet has someone to help with issues but Trend Micro appears to not. And Comcast doesn't care about their customers getting legitimate email. Actually, I guess they just don't care period.
Has anyone else experienced this and, if so, were you able to figure out what magical incantation it takes to get through to a human who cares?

My Plesk Panel fails to find updates for some reason. It keeps thinking that 11.5.30 Update #31 is the latest version, although the changelog (URL..) clearly shows 11.5.30 Update #40 is available.I tried to manually run the updater from command line:
Code:
C:ParallelsPleskadminin>ai.exe --select-product-id panel --select-release-current --reinstall-patch --install-component base
No success.
I tried to switch to the Early adopter releases No success. How can if fix Plesk Panel to update to the latest versions again?
My setup:
OS: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1
Panel version: 11.5.30 Update #31 , last updated at April 10, 2014 02:32 AM

I am trying to put together a 1U server, and this is the first time I've had to deal with the space constraints of a rackmount server.
I am toying with a RAID 10 setup, which requires 4 drives, so I am looking at 2.5" enterprise drives so that I can fit 4 into a 1U rack. The problem is I was on newegg and don't see any cases with 2.5" bays. Are there kits that convert 3.5" bays to 2x2.5" or something of this nature? Furthermore, I see here:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136260
that the 2.5" drive is inside a 3.5" brick. Can this be taken out of the mount? I don't see the point in paying extra for a 2.5" drive that only fits in a 3.5" slot.
I have read that in a 4-drive array, RAID 10 outperforms RAID 5. This seems counterintuitive to me because in RAID 5 there is essentially striping across 3 drives, and then parity on the 4th, whereas in 10, you would only have striping across 2 drives. Is this just because of the calculations involved in generating the parity?

instead of buying a rackmount that holds 16 hard drives that is about 1000$ for the case + power supply.
why not just buy a tower that might cost you $400 + PSU and use that?
my question is wouldnt it be cheaper for me to buy a tower instead of rackmounts if my majority is in space , for example my tower that costed me about $99 holds 12 hard drive bays (this is in my desktop house) , while my 3u rackmount holds 16 hard drives but it was $1000 + PSU included.

Can anyone recommend an affordable antivirus hardware appliance that can be put in-line between a physical machine acting as a mail server and the switch? I need it only to filter on ONE machine so it would not have to be extremely fast. Spam filtering would be a plus as well. Any recommendations? I am looking for something plug and play.

I just applied yum updates and then attempted Plesk microupdates on a Mediatemple dv4 VPS running CentOS release 5.11.
I ran the 'up' alias (as I have done many times with success):
alias up='/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/autoinstaller --select-product-id plesk --select-release-current --reinstall-patch --install-component base'
It halted with:
ERROR: Unable to install the "psa-updates-11.0.9-rhel5.build110140930.15.noarch" package.
The following could cause the installation failure:
1) psa-updates-11.0.9-rhel5.build110140930.15.noarch: No suitable solutions were found for the "sw-engine >= 2.5.2" dependency.
2) sw-engine-2.5.2-201409301549.rhel5.x86_64: No suitable solutions were found for the "libcurl.so.3()(64bit)" dependency.

We`re running a datacenter in Iran, So we require about 1000 1U and 2U rackmount servers.
Do you know any great rackmount seller in Europe or Asia?
* Asia is prefered because of shipping costs.
