I used Firebug in Firefox to see what was happening. I went back and looked at my add-ons in Firefox. I did not see anything that would block advertising. It probably was not Websense because it would have returned quickly with a blocked page response. Maybe it could have been a firewall rule. I doubt that port 8000 is allowed on our network.

RE: Q about multi-site SQL cluster
You can just fail the resources over to node 2. As long as nodes 3 4 can communicate with node 2, then node 2 remains the owner. The problem you have is if comms is cut between Site1 and Site2. Then you have two nodes at each end - which side should pick a node to seize control of the cluster? That's why you use an additional resource (e.g. file share witness). Whichever side has a node controlling the file share witness remains the active node.

RE: Opinion on rebuilding Raid 5
In my opinion Raid 5 on Everything is just wrong. You have to use the appropriate Raid Level for you specific needs. I had a consultant several years ago that said Raid 5 was the absolute best for their application. As a matter of fact they said it was best in all occasions. I then setup two servers one with Raid 5 and another with Raid 10 for a demonstration. I have to say for their application Raid 10, killed Raid 5. They were not allowed to consult for us again, as a matter of fact they continued to say that our test with the same hardware and processors was invalid and Raid 5 was the best in all circumstances.

RE: Opinion on rebuilding Raid 5
RAID1 you lose 50% of disk space RAID5 you lose 1/n (n = number of drives) of disk space. (33% for 3 drives, 25% for 4 drives, 10% for 10 drives, 5% for 20 drives etc.) The larger the number of spindles in your RAID5 array, the less space you lose. RAID1 performs better though. Both arrays can lose a single drive without failure. So you need to weigh up whether you need perf or space.

RE: Windows NLB on windows 2008 R2?
Actually, I checked and both NICs are plugged into the same VLAN. I thought they were on a crossover cable, but I was thinking about a cluster I'm also working on. Any ways, the issue is the same. The NLB NIC still says Unidentified network and when I reboot the server, the primary NIC fails to detect the domain.

Raid 10 vs Raid 0+1 RE: Opinion on rebuilding Raid 5
I have a question about Raid 10 vs Raid 0+1... I understand the fundamental differences between the two: One is a raid 1 of two raid 0s, and the other is a raid 0 of two raid 1s... Obviously, the raid 10 allows any two disks to die, which I see as an advantage. Is there some kind of speed improvement with the Raid 0+1 which is beneficial? As far as I can tell, I would think not... as the raid 0+1 would require twice the mirroring, and the raid 10 would only require twice the striping... which I imagine is easier for the controller to do. (Or do I have Raid10 and Raid 0+1 backward?) Also, if you had 8 disks in a raid 10, do you get (Total Space/2), or (4 * (Total Space of 2 drives/2))? Another way to ask: would you have a (Raid0(Raid1(Disk1)(Disk2))(Raid1(Disk3)(Disk4))(Raid1(Disk5)(Disk6))(Raid1(Disk7)(Disk8))) or would you have a (Raid0(Raid1(Disk1)(Disk2)(Disk3)(Disk4))(Raid1(Disk5)(Disk6)(Disk7)(Disk8)))? I'm sure the answer to this question is It depends on your raid card. But I'm curious on what people use and what experiences they have. Personally, I've been using Raid 5 or Raid 6 for years, as speed has not been an issue for us... until very recently. --Matt Ross Ephrata School District - Original Message - From: Crawford, Scott [mailto:crawfo...@evangel.edu] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com] Sent: Mon, 11 Apr 2011 10:27:54 -0700 Subject: RE: Opinion on rebuilding Raid 5 Theoretically, you could lose half your drives without failure with RAID1...but they need to be the right half.

Re: USB hard drives
What cost level you looking at sub $100 or more than $100. Sam's Club had some WD pocket 1TB drives for about $119 USB 2 with case. I saw the larger WD 1TB for just under $100. The $500 GB ones were about $90. You could put one together for about $90 purchasing either Seagate or WD drives and an external case for about $90 getting them from more traditional hardware vendors like CDW. LaCie has various sizes for the $85 to $120 depending on the size but you would be better off with the WD or Seagate models in MHO. WalMart should have about the same as Sam's Club.

RE: OT: Media Center tuner card for Comcast
Thanks … my ancient tuner card quit working when they converted to all digital signals … not even my ‘cable ready’ TVs from only 5 or 6 years ago will tune in any cable stations now. Had to get digital cable boxes ( besides the main cable box) to use with other TVs , like in the bedroom, too. I suspect your cable is still broadcasting on the old analog signals.

Re: Opinion on rebuilding Raid 5
It also depends on what you use it for. For reading the performance difference is not as dramatic as for writing, especially as you add more disks. For writing the difference will improve with more disks, but will still be less than half of raid1.

Both arrays can lose a single drive without failure. So you need to weigh up whether you need perf or space.

You could put one together for about $90 purchasing either Seagate or WD drives and an external case for about $90 getting them from more traditional hardware vendors like CDW. LaCie has various sizes for the $85 to $120 depending on the size but you would be better off with the WD or Seagate models in MHO. WalMart should have about the same as Sam's Club.

RE: OT: Media Center tuner card for Comcast
The technology works. Unfortunately your cable vendor is unlikely to know WTF is going on. Make sure you tell them it's for a TIVO. They've *never* heard of an MCE. The TIVO generates sufficient truck rolls that they'll know what to do. If you have a Ceton card you need to make sure the phone person documents IN THE WORKORDER that you want an M (Multi-stream) card *AND* to bring extra as these things are unreliable as can be.
