Hi,
i am faced with problem of playing webm video on OI (currently /hipster-2014.1)
I CAN do it with firefox (it plays, but it hiccups - not really smooth playback
is possible, either from file or from http)
I have tried 'totem' and got :

You usually keep it in AHCI or SATA mode - not IDE. Depends on how the

Thanks for the input... I know you are an experienced hand.
I hope someone here will have some hideously clever idea about
cramming about 4 more 3.5 HDD drives into an HP xw8600 server.
I bought it used off ebay but I think it still has a pretty stock
arrangement for hdd.
A section fitted out to hold only 4 hdd.

I'd lose the optical drives (booting off of USB sticks is faster anyway) and
One option might be an x in y drive bay that slides into the top forward
facing builtin drive bay. (Where x y.) These are available in both hot
and non-hot swapping versions. They use fan(s) forcing air over the drives

The problem with installing in IDE mode and switching to AHCI later is that
disks change numbering schemes, from c0d0s* (controller - disk - slice) to
c0t0d0s* (controller - target - disk - slice). In some systems that messes with
grub's ability to find rpool (if I remember right, please chime
You can fit an extra 3.5 disk on the bottom of the case, right under the other
four. To hold it in place you're supposed to use regular hdd screws inserted
from the bottom of the case.

The tray less cages that Bill and I mentioned can be a little pricy ($100
+/-) so be aware that there are less expensive x in y options, both tray
and tray less, that don't have backplanes* that the drives plug into, i.e.
they are just bays that house the drives closer together and include a fan
