How many out there - continue to use hardware that's out of warranty? My Exchange server (pe 2600) is no longer covered by dell- its I think about 7 years old-
And my NAS device as well- My exchange is all mirrored so in that sense I'm a bit comfortable , however raid controller is another issue if that went out I guess I would have to scramble - I hate to retire the hardware as it has been good to me- and based on perfom counters it does the job- and quite well I might add- dual 933 1 gig ram 6 scsi drives My NAS also is redundant in that it's a raid5 and it uses ide drives , I actually upgraded the disks from the 4 40 gig to 4 80 gig drives- but again the box is out of warranty and dell will not renew based on EOL As many of you know I'm at a non-profit so its not easy to just pick up the phone a order new 5k dollar NAS or 8k server- Does anyone have any thoughts/comments etc..
