Re: [swinog] ProLiant Debian
Hello, I'm a rather frequent and loyal Sun customer, I think over time I must have bought just about every Fire model, and they all came with empty drive bays where no hard disks have been ordered. I never saw any «dummy» or unusable bay between the years 2000 and 2010. Yes, empty drive bays where you can't insert a standard bare disk. You need Sun disk mount kits, which are not sold separately. You both sure have made very contradicting experiences with Sun HW! My experience with Sun is what Tonnerre described for 3.5 bays, and what Stanislav said for 2.5 bays... You can find 2.5 trays on e-bay though (look for the corresponding Sun part number).

I never saw any «dummy» or unusable bay between the years 2000 and 2010. Yes, empty drive bays where you can't insert a standard bare disk. You need Sun disk mount kits, which are not sold separately. Moreover, they were selling Intel-based Fire V65x servers with completely different disk mounts, not found in any traditional Sun server. Also the embedded RAID controller did not have any Linux support at all... Sun produces decent hardware, and I like it very much. Just don't assume there are Intel servers available from Sun :) ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

Is your reseller making a business out of it for it's own, removing the unused disk frames and selling them apart with third-party disks? /Speculation Because I too always have got a usable disk frame in every disk bay. -- Gruss Claudio Luck ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

Last time I checked, I received just dummy-bays (not really what one needs to mount own drives). You can still buy the cheapest hard drive (so you get a bay) and swap the disk though :) Cheers Tonnerre ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog Mathias Seiler MiroNet GmbH, Strassburgerallee 86, CH-4055 Basel T +41 61 201 30 90, F +41 61 201 30 99 mathias.sei...@mironet.ch www.mironet.ch smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
