At least half the time I answer, I didn't have the answer when I started. I read the question, go "I wonder how you'd do that", and start...

As I get older, this is an hourly occurrence with...

@steve-2 Jones that is, unfortunately a disadvantage of the RAID5. Array rebuild times for R5 and R10 are also a consideration, with lower rebuild times R10 is...

The agreement you must sign to use the cloud from a cloud provider is reserving itself for potential changes in the agreements. Or at least so I've read on some...

I agree, but don't agree with you. It's not necessarily about avoiding a tool that can help, but using the tool appropriately. It's potentially a problem with many of today's...

The bigger problem is fair use. There's no provision in there...

I tend to agree with Jack. Win Auth is more secure and no passwords are stored in any config file. The only passwords are those stored in the services portion...

I'd second Gail's advice. R10 if you can, R1 for logs if you can't. R5 for data if you must, but keep a spare drive around, which in most cases...
