Thanks, I was hoping that was the case.
I do not have any "true" Network Attached Storage device that is not a
server plus drive[s]. I could use them, but the costs for a fixed
income person is, well let us say that adding internal SATA drives and
USB drives are more withing my budget than a "true" NAS set of devices.
It would help with my backups and having access to my data from all my
systems [desktop, laptop, tablet] visa the wired and secured wireless
network.
How much storage is needed for the TDF/LO "network" of devices for
online access though the different web pages. I know that the
"http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/" section of the storage
needs could be 4+ GB per release version [alpha, beta, RC, or final
release] That adds up really fast over the release cycle. Then there
are all of the other files stored on TDF/LO servers that are a part of
the Wiki pages and such. Then there is the . . . Then there is the . .
. .
I think it would do "us" good if we could be given a grant to double or
quad the amount of storage that TDF/LO currently uses. Maybe then it
would last another 2 years +/- before more is needed.

What do you mean by "invest in large storage"?
Are you talking about adding a larger set of drives to the
servers, or are you talking about new servers and storage devices
to be added to the current ones TDF uses?
How many TeraBytes of storage do TDF/LO have access to currently
over how many systems?
How many TBs are you talking about increasing to around this
coming summer?
These figures would be nice to have when you "talk" about budgets
and storage needs.
-------------------
Of course, I think you can never have too much storage capacity.
My Ubuntu desktop has 5-TBs internally [1-TB, 2-TB, 2-TB] and 4-TB
externally via USB drives [2-TB, 2-TB]. I have almost 4-TB of
files and data that the 2 external drives are used for backup, but
I keep increasing the number of files I store on my desktop. An
example is the fact that I rip all my CDs to MP3 files and now
have over 100 hours of Christmas music on my desktop for the
holidays. I have almost every album that "The Carpenters"
recorded as well. Then there are the other audio and video files
I love to watch on the computer, or streaming through the blu-ray
player.
SO, I am a advocate for as much drive space for active and back up
files as one can afford.

Hello,
I'd like to present a new infrastructure calculation. Reason
is that we might get sponsoring of hardware in the first or
second quarter of 2013, so a complete move to fully
virtualized services is planned for spring or summer of next year.
However, until then, we need to migrate to a recent platform
fulfilling our needs, with same hardware and same
configuration, which is planned for the next weeks, and
currently in the works for our web server already.
Given that newer hardware is due again in about 6 months, it
doesn't make much sense to invest in a large storage until
then. Therefore, I attach an updated proposal of
infrastructure costs. Feedback is welcome, I'd love to make a
budget proposal to the board soon. :)
Thanks,
Florian
