Not to worry!!!
Guys trust me I am not making up stuff.. It was Network Appliance machine thats about $60k.. It has 36 drives and
all the data is mirroed across the drives. It is very unusual
that 2 drives go bad at same time with a machine like this.
We run cachefs on the tour servers but still has to call
the Net App box and in my wildest dreams did I ever
imagine 2 drives would go bad. Heck we even keep a spare
drive in stock for this exact reason. But it is not the type
of drive you can get at comp USA. Believe me I am sick
to my stomach about this down time and highly frustrated.
We are working as fast as we can and will be implementing
another round of redundancy to be pro active in the future.
We host with cavecreek and there is no other agenda or
issues than what I discussed. Ron C is a good friend of mine
and Ian at cavecreek knows about the problem but there is
not a darn thing they can do until we get the drive here installed
and tested.
I wish there was more I could tell you,, like I said before if
its any consolation ALL webmasters will be paid plus 10%
so Mike even though it sucks big time that we are down you will get more money on your next check.
