Hi Martin, The upgrade is to expand the DB storage RAID-10 array from 10x SAS disks to 16x SAS disks. We will be adding a 4 bay external JBOD exclosure with 4x ST3450857SS (450GB, 15K, SAS). On the 15th June we attempted to background extend our array from 10x disks to 12x disks. Storage Manager

Mapping and cadastral information for Russia have not previously been openly and freely available. These products were edited, cenĀ­sored often and in many cases the work was simply not completed, thus the framework for building a modern digital cadastre system did not exist.
