This morning the main rack had frozen and on reboot the main rack emits a continuous one pair beeps (sounds like an alarm) and the rack doesn't reboot at all - black screen. I noticed also that one of the fans had stopped, so I'm... (read more)

Please make sure MediaNetwork is installed correctly," and we're... (read more)

Just this month (August 2014) the folks over at Indiestor announced their own microservers - looks like just the ticket! Not sure if links are allowed, but Tiger Technology also finally released their projectSTORE product, which runs on Windows and allows full sharing including Avid bin locking. A Unity... (read more)
