Subject: [Discuss] ssd's in linux

Guys,

I'm thinking of upgrading my linux system by adding an SSD drive to use
as my system disk. Has anyone done this? Any pros and cons regarings
using SSD's? I'm more intrested in the cons. I'm worried about the life
expectancy since there is a limited number of writes one can do to the
NAND memory. Do I need to setup a raid array to ensure the SSD contents
are correct?

Thanks. Steve.

Re: [Discuss] Verizon ADSL and port blocking

Bill: 
I have no issue accessing my HP Mediasmart server on both HTTP/HTTPS and I host 
Ventrilo and Mumble as well with no issue.

If you are using the Westel DSL Modem, disable the firewall built in, assuming 
you have another router and not directly connected from a PC.  I also recommend 
switching it to Bridge mode.  Search on Westel Bridged and there are plenty of 
articles with directions on how to do this.

 I've decided to put a web server up for a couple of days, but Verizon 
 DSL is blocking the ports I've tried to use.
 
 If you have experience with Verizon ADSL, please tell me what ports are 
 available for my own server.
 
 TIA.
 
 Bill
