Default TQ Server

Hello,
I was thinking about purchasing a server for TQ and running it at my office (when my office gets built) This will cut cost way down. I was going to wait to get the server till my new house and office were complete but circumstances arose and I'm going to plan it now.

My friend JL Electronics (JohnWPA) will be picking up our server soon and will help with the configurations. Currently we are in the research mode. I was told yesterday that it looks like my host is ripping us off, charging us for a bigger server than what we're using or on.

I'll be keeping everyone updated as we progress.

Greg

Good luck with the selection and implementation of the new server - I'm sure this is somewhat of an un-needed head ache in the middle of all the other things you have going on at the moment...but I appreciate all your efforts on our behalf! This is a wonderful site that just keeps growing, both in members and in functionality - and I'm not sure if all our members realize just how many hours you must put in to make it appear so seemless...thanks!

If you don't know:

Be sure to implement some level of RAID, at least mirrored drives.

SCSI drives, while expensive, seem to be faster and more reliable.

Implement a true backup rotation scheme.

Sorry if you already are aware of all this.
