I have a card on the way, should be here shortly. Thanks though.
 
Yes, the plate is new. That poster was a spammer that I banned who is now in the meat shredder.
 
RAID card for the R510 arrived today. Same that is in Ruby at the moment: LSI 8708EM2. The plan is to move the M1015 into the file server so that both 8708EM2 cards are in the Dell servers.

No fun toys today, just the faceplate for the R510.

The rack will look better when the next two packages arrive. ;)
 
Are you hosting your own web server?
There are actually a few web servers. Icinga runs one for monitoring and Ruby is running one for internal installation media (CentOS mirror), but all of these are only accessible on the internal network. There are no external services offered.

And here we go again, teasers!
Well, yeah, I can't just give everything anyway. No fun in that. The fiber cards and cables should give one away right away, though.
 
Yes and no. The latter is much cooler than a NeatCable.
