ducatipaso.org being cut over to new hardware

Post by mike »

behind the scenes I have been building a better server for our site.
the new system has a dual core CPU, 4G RAM, and can handle up to 4 SATA drives.
over the next couple of weeks once the cutover is complete and stable, we'll be updating to a RAID5 setup and a more reliable detached backup system.

this work will put us in a capacity position to integrate additional file hosting capabilities such as embedded photo hosting in the forum, permitting file uploading, etc.

I hope to make this cutover happen today [12/15/2010]
Please excuse any interruptions :smoke:

Awesome Mike - Big thanks from me and, I'm sure, everyone else.
