@studiohack, I decided to flag the question because it was "rhetorical" as stated by Saxtus in a comment, and a rhetorical question can be flagged as "not a real question" because it specifies that "[t]his question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form." What are your thoughts on this?
This is a follow-up question to my previous one on what is wrong with the graphic card of my laptop.
As the card is practically dead, I am considering the possibility to try the bake-it-in-the-oven resuscitation technique. I just discovered about this on the interwebs, but by googling it it look...
I am running some performance test for our product.
Currently all the testing related machines(servers, file servers, clients, db) are on a 10G network connected by a powerful Dell OpenManage Switch.
We are using iscsi for the file server. We have a cluster server that contains several nodes.

The 'yesterday' 'two days ago' in my activity feeds aren't correct are they... they don't line up to midnights...? (Wheras the actual dates listed lower on down do)
@PriceChild This one's easy. Rep feed uses actual dates (i.e. April 15 = today), while everything else seems to use 24 hour periods (i.e. 23 hours ago = today). That's why the post and activity feeds say your post on April 13 was yesterday.
@MattJenkins I've been massively productive, gotten everything ready, then took a look around and realised I now have to spend the rest of the day waiting for someone else to order the bits I need to carry on... now to get on with something completely different :)
I found that confused.com is owned by churchill and they have a policy only available through that site which is cheaper - for me, it worked out cheapest by quite a bit
@PriceChild ... I never said people shouldn't have protection, but I would rather pay £5k or similar once off and any claims are taken out of that... (ok, I don't really know a better alternative)... but, it doesn't seem fair in the slightest that when someone crashed in to the back of me, my premiums went up as they classified me as a higher risk as some people are more likely to have an accident after being hit!
@Wil agreed, definitely not fair your premium going up if it wasn't your fault.... unless the accident (by a similarly aged/located/etc. driver) caused billions of pounds of damage, resulting in your bracket's premiums going up 8-)
@PriceChild Just at a light, someone went in to the back of me... they wanted just to pay to a garage, but... I have a 4x4 with wheel on the back and that got pushed in, dented the back door slightly and it was going to cost quite a bit, so it had to go to insurance.... but, it is the same at EVERY insurance, next time you mess around with quotes, if you put a no fault claim on, you will see your prices go up!
My mum got a new car and said I could drive it if I got insurance, but I don't think I will be doing it anytime soon!...
@Wil meh yeah, it gets about "if i get this fixed properly, it costs £X but will mean £Y more in premiums for the next 3 years... which is cheaper" which isn't nice
@PriceChild i just think it is still a scam, I got everything back - didn't take my excess as it was the other persons fault, but my premiums still go up!!! I wouldn't, but I wonder if technically you could sue the other driver for the difference for the next 3 years as it is a cost that is pretty much their fault :/
@Linker3000 crossing my fingers that it is cheaper next year when I am 25! but it is a class 8(or 9, the one before highest) vehicle so very expensive!
@KronoS Well, I was overruled in my choice of kit and had to go for an HP storageworks box which, IMHO, was way over priced. I was looking at a Thecus unit which was about 1/3 the cost - hang about...
Thecus N8800PRO, 16TB - £2502.55 (3 yr ) - £2807.55 (5 yr) 8 x 2TB WD RE4 discs (upgradeable to 10GbE)
I was aiming to buy TWO Thecus units for each site and have a local DR spare and a remote async copy - 4 units would have been waaay cheaper than 2 HP solutions.
@KronoS Most of them run some vanilla or tweaked Linux - that 705GB backup is PART(!) of one of our NAS boxes and I can login via ssh and the backup is done via rsync. Not sure about SSD buffer support. If you want to roll your own: openfiler.com
The HP storageworks box has a 512MB flash-based write cache.
