    Houston Area Business Partner

    You are right, the official website seems to be hosted in Namecheap shared or reseller hosting with perhaps free whmcs. With such a scale, i'm really puzzle why still host with NC. And also, the domain whois information shows LLC instead of LLP.

    Wondering does the seller sell the R730xd as well, perhaps buying it at the cheap side and getting the warranty for both hdd and server.

    Need a silent managed gigabit switch

    HP 1810-24G v2 is another alternative you may want to look into. 24gigabit port with 2sfp, limited lifetime warranty, L2 Managed, fanless with web GUI only. But its not small either. Unless you take up the 2x 8 port version which is smaller in size. I personally run it in home and at most...

    Suggested appliance / linux as SAN+NAS solution?

    It will work but if you need vmotion or ha, you need to use the other port in the esxi host to interconnect together by creating another subnet. For this direct connection, you may full utilize it by using vlan so that you can have share local storage between vm, management etc. Leaving the...

    Thks for the multi-chassis lag info but what i understand that the routeros only support bonding. For what i want to know if the bond support lag like cisco etherchannel or any stp support that can prevent loopback. And also if the bond consume high load on cpu.

    Mikrotik CRS226 $244!!!!!!!!

    If having two switches of this, does it allow stacking or lag to provide redundancy ? Example: A server with nic port 1 connect to switch A and another port 2 to switch B with lacp or the bonding, will it works in this way ? P
