Hi Tim,
They look nice, I agree, but I've an eye on power consumption. Some
low-powered CPU with an SSD sitting as a buffer in front of hard
disks that occasionally spin up?
HP Microserver consumes 29W with disk spinning.
I'm paying 12.39p/kWh at the moment, which I think is quite good,

I have a HP Microserver - excellent little unit! :)
They come with a single 250GB SATA hard disk and have four bays so you
can add up to three more. Mine runs CentOS 6.5 very well, used for
storage and as a development web server.
The great thing is that, unlike a NAS, I have control of
I was meaning to buy one of those HP Microservers for myself, since we have
two at work and they are great units. I kept procrastinating, and suddenly
they seemed to vanish from everywhere. The only ones I could find were
either stupidly expensive, or second hand (which I'd rather avoid if
Hi John,
Have you got a link to a source of them at a reasonable price? If so,
I want to snap one up right away!
Perhaps the £129.99 inc VAT

dd does a low level copy so it should copy the partition table and

Or ddrescue. Method of use is similar to dd but specifically designed

Be sure to mount any partitions presented as read only. Even if you
think you're not modifying the files there's still filesystem meta-data,

Hi Peter,
At how old should I be 'refreshing' or duplicating my DVD backups?
Format shift quite often, I would think. That said, I've some 5¼
floppies to access one day. Rob Pike recently wrote about the topic and
the value of real photos tucked away in a shoebox for your descendants.

The ZyXel NAS unit I had a while ago used Linux (ext3 I think), and the
disks could be accessed by a Linux system (or with DiskInternals Linux
Reader on Windows).
Fingers crossed it is the NAS and not the disk.
